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.
