    Big Wiz, previously held the record for the highest-ranking Nigerian song on the Billboard Hot 100 when his hit single “Essence,” which featured Tems and Justin Bieber, climbed at No. 9 on the chart.

    The official billboard chart Twitter account announced on March 21st, 2023, that Rema, has surpassed Wizkid’s record on a chart dated March 25th, 2023.

    It surpassed Wizkid’s ‘Essence‘ (with Tems and Justin Bieber), which peaked at 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2021, as the highest charting Nigerian/African song of all time.
