The internationally renowned Afrobeat sensation, Davido Adeleke, recently couldn't contain his excitement over the remarkable achievement of his talented fellow artist, Rema, in the United States of America.
During a recent interview on the UAE’s #1 Music Station, The Kris Fade Show, the artist affectionately known as O.B.O by his fans expressed sheer astonishment at the performance of Rema's hit track 'Calm Down' on the U.S. music charts.
Davido went on to share his thoughts, stating that it was beyond his imagination that Afrobeat had gained such global prominence. He expressed immense pride in witnessing stars like Rema making waves across the globe.
“Years ago, I never thought a Nigerian artiste would have a Top 5 record in America. Rema has had Top 5 records in America for the past eight months, non-shaken,” he exclaimed.
Remarkably, Rema's 'Calm Down' and its remix featuring Selena Gomez recently achieved a historic milestone as the first Nigerian song to remain on the U.S. Billboard charts for an entire year.
