Rema’s ‘Raves & Roses’ continues to enjoy an impressive boost with the success of his global smash hit ‘Calm Down’ featuring Selena Gomez.
‘Calm Down’ holds the record as the highest charting Nigerian song and the second highest charting African song on the Billboard Hot 100 with a number 5 peak position.
The single also holds the record for the longest number 1 on the Billboard US Afrobeats chart with a record 49 weeks at the top.
