"Love Me JeJe" is a song by Nigerian singer Tems, released on 26 April 2024, via RCA Records. It serves as the second single from her debut studio album, Born in the Wild (2024).[1] Produced by GuiltyBeatz and Spax, the song interpolates Seyi Sodimu's 1997 single "Love Me Jeje".[2][3] However whereas Sodimu's song is Nigerian hip-hop,[4] Tems brings the song into an Afrobeats landscape.[5][6] The song won Best African Music Performance at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards.[7][8]
