Last updated Nov 23, 2023

Rema has once again set a new record for Nigerian music with his latest achievements on the Billboard end-of-the-year charts for 2023.

The singer, who made numerous appearances on the end-of-the-year charts for 2023 released by the media outlet, set a new record as he became the first Nigerian artist to have an album chart on the Billboard 200 year-end chart with his debut album Rave & Roses at number 157.

This was, however, not Rema’s only appearance on the year-end charts for 2023 released by Billboard; the singer was also ranked on the following charts:

Billboard Top Artistes Year-end chart – 41
Billboard World Albums chart year-end – Rave & Roses -3
Billboard Hot 100 year-end – Calm Down (remix) – 6
To say Rema had a successful 2023 is no understatement, as the singer has continued to set new records and break the barriers that exist as the Prince of Afrobeats.
