The duo of Burna Boy and Rema won the inaugural Afrobeats categories at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards held on Sunday, November 19.
Burna Boy won the Top Afrobeats Artiste, while Rema’s ‘Calm Down’ remix featuring Selena Gomez snagged the gong for the Top Afrobeats Song.
The ‘African Giant’ crooner beat stiff competition from Wizkid, Rema, Tems, and Cameroonian star, Libianca, on his way to making history as the first-ever winner of the newly-created Top Afrobeats Artiste category.
However, ‘Calm Down’ remix lost in the Top Billboard Collaboration U.S. Song, Top Billboard Global 200 Song, and Top Radio Song categories.
