Rema Makes History! ‘Rave & Roses Ultra’ Surpasses 3 Billion YouTube Streams
Nigerian music sensation Rema has just made Afrobeats history! His iconic album, Rave & Roses Ultra, has officially crossed a jaw-dropping 3 billion streams on YouTube Music — the first African album to ever hit that milestone.
Released as a deluxe version of his 2022 breakout album Rave & Roses, the Ultra edition delivered global hits like “Calm Down (Remix)” featuring Selena Gomez, which helped catapult Rema into the international spotlight.
This achievement is more than just a number — it’s a loud and clear signal that Afrobeats is no longer a genre on the rise—it has arrived on the world stage.
Rema, known for blending Afrobeat, trap, and pop in an effortlessly infectious style, has become one of Nigeria’s biggest cultural exports. His latest milestone proves that African artists are not just participating in global music — they’re leading it.
“It’s not just about me — it’s about Africa. We’re taking our sound to the world,” Rema shared in a recent interview.
With this streaming feat, Rema joins the ranks of African music royalty and continues to push boundaries for the next generation of artists.
