She also won the Rookie of the Year at the Headies Awards in 2018. Her last body of work, her debut album, ‘Wondaland’ is a compilation of her experiences in different cities like Lagos, Abuja, London and New York, to name a few.

In October 2022, The Nigerian government conferred on Teni the highest award for a Nigerian citizen. The award is called Member of the Order of the Niger (MON). President Muhammadu Buhari conferred the Nigerian National Award on Teni.
