Categorising Rema’s ‘Calm Down’ as a global hit is definitely not an exaggeration, as the hit song has received over ten certifications in different countries of the world to date since its release in 2022. ‘Calm Down’ was also the most streamed afrobeats song of 2022, and the music video also has the highest view counts for an afrobeats video in history as well.
‘Calm Down’ has become a global phenomenon from holding spots on the billboard chart and also bagging an international collaboration with Selena Gomez. The song has received a Diamond certification in France after selling over 250,000 digital single units, and Platinum in the US after selling over 1 million digital single units as well.
