Teni Teams Up With Chris Brown After Years of Persistence
Nigerian singer Teniola Apata, popularly known as Teni, is set to collaborate with American R&B star Chris Brown, marking a major milestone in her career. This international project comes after five years of Teni persistently reaching out to Brown, expressing her desire to work with him.
According to sources, Teni’s breakthrough moment happened during a conversation with Afrobeats superstar Davido. She reiterated her admiration for Brown’s music, prompting Davido—who has collaborated with Brown multiple times—to step in. He facilitated an introduction between the two artists in the United States, paving the way for what is now one of the most anticipated collaborations in Afrobeat and R&B.
Recent sightings of Teni and Chris Brown together have fueled speculation about the nature of their project. While specific details remain undisclosed, industry insiders hint that the collaboration will merge Afrobeat rhythms with Brown’s signature R&B style. Studio sessions are reportedly already underway, further raising excitement among fans.
Chris Brown, who remains a dominant force in the global music industry, recently teamed up with Davido on Hmmm, a track that received widespread acclaim and earned him a nomination for ‘International Artiste of the Year’ at the 2025 Headies Awards. The American singer also teased a major announcement for March 27, 2025, leaving fans eager to see what’s next.
For Teni, this collaboration is a dream come true and a testament to the increasing global recognition of Nigerian artists. As Afrobeats continues to dominate the international music scene, her partnership with Brown is set to further cement Nigeria’s influence in global entertainment.
