Nigerian music prodigy Rema has shattered Afro juju legend King Sunny Ade’s enduring record on the prestigious US Billboard Albums chart.

Impressively, Rema’s album ‘Rave and Roses’ not only maintains a strong presence on the charts but has extended its dominance to an astonishing 30 weeks, surpassing the previous landmark of 29 weeks set by the Afro-juju icon.

This remarkable feat stands as a poignant reminder of the tremendous potential that both Afrobeats stars and their international counterparts possess in expanding their listener bases on a global scale.

In an ever-evolving music industry, Rema’s groundbreaking achievement serves as a luminous exemplar of the limitless horizons of artistic expression and cultural interchange.

With the monumental triumph of ‘Rave and Roses,’ Rema has unequivocally solidified his role as a trailblazer, charting a path towards establishing himself as one of the most influential artists of his generation, thus igniting inspiration for budding musicians in generations to come.
