Famous singer Divine Ikubor, aka Rema, the creative record breaker, is in the news again as he smashed the record of legendary musician King Sunny Ade. KSA set the record 41 years ago as being the Nigerian artiste with the longest-running album in the US Billboard 200 chart’s history.

Our source recalls that King Sunny Ade set the record with his critically-acclaimed album, “Juju Music,” in 1982 – 18 years before Rema was born.

The album spent 29 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart and was the longest-running Nigerian project in the chart’s history until it was recently displaced by Rema’s debut album ‘Rave & Roses’, which spent a 30th week on the chart this week.

Based on multi-metric consumption, the Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S..
