Nigerian megastar Davido continues to dominate the global music landscape as his single ‘Unavailable,’ featuring Musa Keys, earns a prestigious place on Rolling Stone’s Staff’s top 10 Afropop songs of 2023. The recognition adds another feather to Davido’s cap, following the immense success of his fourth album, ‘Timeless,’ in what has proven to be a remarkable year for the artist.

‘Unavailable’ claimed the second spot on the list, a testament to its international acclaim, with only South African sensation Tyla’s ‘Water’ securing the top position. This recognition highlights the song’s impact and resonating appeal beyond borders.

Davido isn’t the sole Nigerian artist celebrated on the list, as Victor Thompson’s hit gospel record ‘Blessing(This Year)’ remix featuring Gunna secured the seventh spot.
