Once again, Rema has solidified his place in music history with his album, “Rave & Roses,” extending its certification streak in France by achieving a fresh milestone.
Having reached album sales equivalent to 100,000 units, “Rave & Roses” has earned the prestigious Platinum certification from SNEP. This accolade marks Rema’s inaugural platinum-certified album in the region.
Furthermore, this certification positions the album as the second platinum-certified Nigerian album in France, following Burna Boy’s “African Giant.”
Remarkably, Rema has accomplished all these feats with his debut album, underscoring the profound impact and global resonance of his music.
