Spotify’s 2023 ‘tracks of Summer’ forecasts feature tracks from the Nigerian singing duet, Divine Ikubor, aka Rema, and David Adeleke, called Davido.

The only African songs projected by Spotify to top charts this summer were “Unavailable” from Davido’s most recent album “Timeless,” and Rema’s popular song “Calm Down,” which she co-wrote with American superstar Selena Gomez.
