Davido’s ‘Unavailable’ my best song of 2023: Rihanna

Global pop sensation Rihanna has declared the collaborative track “Unavailable” as the standout song of the year, keeping it on constant replay.

Global music sensation, Rihanna, in an interview in Los Angeles on Monday, said Davido’s latest single, ‘Unavailable,’ is her best song of 2023. 

The ‘Work’ crooner was asked for her best album of the year in an interview with Complex and she replied saying she’s not really an album person but more of a single listener and said “Unavailable on repeat.”

In response to what the Fenty beauty owner said, Davido replied in a tweet, saying, “My RI RI.”

Rihanna was seen in a viral video dancing the ‘Unavailable’ challenge dance. 

The song got a Grammy nomination in the 2024 awards for the Best African Performance category. 

Responding to the video, Davido replied via a tweet saying “I made a pandemic.”

Rihanna also named ‘Mnike’ by Tyler ICU as one of her favourite tracks of the year.

The song, a fusion of Afrobeats and amapiano, is a joint effort by Nigerian singer Davido and South African producer Musa Keys.

In a social media shout-out, Rihanna also expressed appreciation for another South African artist, Mnike, identifying one of their tracks as a personal favourite of 2023.

Davido, thrilled by Rihanna’s endorsement, responded on social media with a heartfelt “My Ri Ri.” This acknowledgement further solidifies the international appeal and recognition of the dynamic collaboration.
