On January 6, 2024, Davido's hit track, 'Unavailable,' featuring Musa Keys, achieved another milestone by attaining a BRIT silver certification in the United Kingdom. Known for its viral dance moves, the song has now surpassed 200,000 units in sales in the UK. Notable achievements include 'Unavailable' reaching No. 52 on the UK Singles Chart and claiming the top spot at No. 1 on the UK Afrobeats Chart.

With the BRIT silver certification, 'Unavailable' now boasts its third international certification, having previously received Gold certifications in Switzerland and Canada. The track is also gearing up for the prestigious 2024 Grammy Awards, where it has earned a nomination in the Best African Song Performance category.
