Nigerian afrobeats star, Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema, has made history as the first African artiste to perform at the prestigious Ballon d’Or ceremony.

The 23-year-old performed at the 2023 Ballon d’Or ceremony in Paris, France, on Monday night.

Rema thrilled the audience with a performance of his hit song, ‘Calm Down.’

The award organisers shared a clip of his electrifying performance via their verified X handle with the caption; “Calm Down!

“@heisrema takes on the stage of the Ballon d’Or!”

His latest EP, Ravage, is also a testament to his success, as it debuted on the charts in over 50 countries a few hours after its release on Friday, October 26, 2023.

Guy go hussle.

Not everyone is meant to be Davido or Wiz.

Nice one Rema.. Nigeria artists and the entertainment industry in general are doing the most and I'm proud of them. I wish the politicians can make us proud as well, but no they keep stealing and rubbing it on our faces, because they have reliable zombies who will continue to defend and praise them.

Wonderful performance from him yesterday

The video narrative is annoying. Do work on this
