Nigerian music sensation Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema, has shattered records yet again, this time on YouTube Music.
His groundbreaking debut album, ‘Rave & Roses (Ultra Edition),’ has made history as the first African project to amass an astonishing 3 billion streams on the platform.
As of Wednesday, the album’s streaming numbers soared past the 3 billion mark, with the global hit ‘Calm Down’—especially the Selena Gomez remix—leading the charge.
Beyond YouTube, ‘Rave & Roses Ultra’ reigns supreme as the most-streamed African album on Spotify, boasting an incredible 3.9 billion streams.
Not only is it the first African album to cross the 2 billion milestone, but it also stands as the sole Nigerian project to achieve this feat, cementing Rema’s place in music history.
