Social media users are buzzing with reactions after Davido expressed his appreciation for Rihanna’s recognition of his popular song, “Unavailable,” as the “Song of the Year.”
Davido, the Afrobeats legend, took to social media to commend Rihanna for her choice. In a quote from a popular interview clip on X, he affectionately referred to her as “My Ri Ri.”
During the interview, when asked to pick her album of the year, Rihanna, the multibillionaire pop star, revealed that she wasn’t an “album girl” and instead named “Unavailable” and “Mnike” (performed by Tyler ICU and Tumelo) as her joint songs of the year. This revelation has sparked widespread reactions across social media platforms.
She said, “Album of the year? Am I an album girl? Or am I a streaming single girl?
“‘Unavailable’ [by Davido featuring Musa Keys] on repeat. That and ‘Mnike’ [by Tyler ICU and Tumelo] are my song of the year.”
Rihanna made this known in a side interview with Complex at a recent event of her fashion brand, Fenty, The Creeper.
