Nigerian music artiste, Teniola Apata, popularly known as Teni, is on the verge of a groundbreaking international collaboration with American R&B star Chris Brown.

The development comes after five years of unanswered messages from Teni to Brown, in which she consistently expressed her desire to work with him.

During a conversation with Davido, Teni reiterated her admiration for Brown’s artistry, prompting the Afrobeats star to intervene. Davido, who has previously worked with Brown on multiple tracks, facilitated an introduction in the United States, leading to what is now a highly anticipated musical project.
