Nigerians are allergic to the Truth.
Why backlash the billboard?
As if the billboard was lieing.
When last did you hear from him after Baby Calm down?
Same with Korede Bello.
Well is not easy to have back to back hit songs like Burna Boy, Wiz Kid and Davido.
I hope he will bounce back

You people should just CALM DOWN and face the truth.

Ironfaceman:
Till today I don't know how Afrobeats has helped the Nigerian course.

Many of the so called artist travel abroad to live life
They come back to collect extionist fee for a show then travel back

China don't have Afrobeats, nobody is streaming their music but their solid science back ground has set them apart from their peers.

Though Rema is just a happy go lucky, he hasn't been tested.

I wish him well

Nah trash you dey talk..

If dem no get Afro beats, what about Chinese movie? Don’t people stream that too?

You know how many foreign artist have worked/working with Afro beats?

Ofodirinwa:
So because chinese music is stupid we should do what?

Can't you people read to understand anymore?

Goodmarlian:
Why are our artiste always seeking American validation?

Inferiority complex

Afromentalist:
Nigerians just don’t like the truth.

Dimension ft skeptical is what then Are you ok? What yeye truth. Abeg go and sit down

dominique:
Asides calm down, none of his other hits made it to the mainstream billboard charts.

Dimension ft skepta is what? Move aside jor

SalamRushdie:
Once these American music media label you one hit wonder they will do everything to make sure you remain there ..Rema got their attention and instead of him to start making more songs for them like Tyla he came back and started doing that Kelebu nonsense sound...only Nigerians will accept such nonsense because they are used to accepting nonsense from their govt daily

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

To dem , it looks like it, but to us, his song are always banger. Shey dem know Afrobeat pass us? Dis people sha wan do everything to de-market our artist

HacheNoire:
Call a spade a spade. No lies detected!

Therr are some songs that are too big, its difficult to surpass them. There is a reason why david, wizkid and Burna are called BIg3. If you think say i dey lie, ask Runtown, oxlade and the rest..

inoki247:
Lol wetin Dem go come talk about CKay....



There are artist I always root for like Runtown too...




Psy Gnamnam style a Chinese song is still doing number is a one time wonder....

As Dem no fit keep to the consistency mak Billboard chop am like that...


Don jazzy said on Calm down PR alone they spend 5M USD he no easy....

Runtown na sound god. I guess he took a break to protect his peace of mind.

This is what happens. Now they will start teaching us which afrobeat is a hit or miss.. something they know nothing about. They want you to understand it's the collaboration with Selena Gomez that earned him that previous spot in the first place and not his own craft's potential. Next thing Rema will be doing everything to be in their good books...
Then gradually start losing grip to the wolves

If Rema na one hit wonder, wetin you go call portable

T😂😂😂that one na NO HIT WONDER

Exactly!!!

Goodmarlian:

I wonder o.

But they are right... billboard is international....Rema na 1 hit wonder internationally...calm down ft selena is the onky recognised song they know

Officialpyper:
Can't you people read to understand anymore?

What is your recommendation? You said you don't know how afrobeats is helping the nigerian cause and China has music nobody likes. Do you think if Nigeria had worst music, it would improve? Is the end goal of Rema's music ending your poverty?

Na true na.

Rema doesn't even have a Good hit song
No hating. But that so called hit baby calm down is Rubbish. Sounds like Nursery rhymes. Made more famous by Selena Gomez and Indians on Tiktok

What the fork is this?.
I see this fine girl for my party, she wear yellow
Every other girl, they dey do too much, but this girl mellow
Naim I dey find situation I go use take tell am hello
Finally, I find way to talk to the girl but she no wan follow.


This is why i say streaming numbers is crap that shouldn't be used to measure greatness


Compare Rema with his record label mate John Drille. Voice, Lyrics, Composure, John is light years ahead but Rema used his boyish kak to get across Gen Z and became popular.
His songs are Total Crap!!!

I was talking to a friend today and I told her that apart from 'calm down' I have never heard other of Rema songs and I'm not lying.

china like Korea n Japan have kpop

My dear in the years to come the world will be so polarised only what you can do a take you through.

Africans lay emphasis on entertainment and this development is costing blacks their dignity.

OneCandleAway:
That's because Africans are better in the heart. Singing, dancing and sports that is strength

But they are self-reliant.. If there's a race war all these countries you mentioned can stand alone.

Then Africans will rely on what.

I agree 100%. I go to strip clubs here in naija and when kelebu comes up, folks just at start going gugu gaga, shouting match am upandan, but that's where it all ends, naija clubs and street parties.

Rema has the ability to currently disturb the global scene. Heard a jam Don Toliver featured him on, Rema destroyed that shii that even DT recognised and gave him his flowers. He should leave all that match am style his tryna do lately. I like his new bad boy, playboi carti image he's trying to stamp on his brand too.

Billboard’s rankings, noting that the classification appears to be strictly based on performance within the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, rather than global streaming numbers or international chart achievements.
Gbam!!!
Tell your artists to stay at home and stop chasing grammys upandan
In the states he IS a one hit wonder
Back here he is not
Nasty c is SA learnt this lesson the hard way back in the day
🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️

The tiktokenification of hit songs is actually killing the depth of most songs dished out this days.
