ATL Jacob says Tems was reluctant to clear the record
Drake has several No. 1 hits in his career, and one of them is “Wait For U,” featuring Future and Nigerian singer Tems. According producer ATL Jacob, however, Tems was reluctant to clear the song and Drizzy had to personally call her.
“Tems wouldn’t clear the song,” Jacob said in a clip from an unreleased interview with The Baller Alert Show. “So Future pulled in — his relationship with Drake was like, ‘Can you get the song cleared?’ So Drake had to call Tems and be like, ‘Hey man.’”
The track was released in 2022 and emerged at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. It went on to win the Best Melodic Rap Performance at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards.
