Rema’s debut album, Rave & Roses (Ultra), has officially made history as the first African project to surpass 3 billion streams on Spotify.
The album’s global hit single, Calm Down — particularly its remix featuring American pop sensation Selena Gomez previously set a record as the first African song to reach 1 billion streams on the platform.
Together, all versions of Calm Down have contributed over 2 billion streams to the album’s total, while the remaining 20 tracks account for just under 1 billion streams combined.
