‎Nigerian singer, Joseph Akinwale Akinfenwa-Donus, popularly known as Joeboy, has explained the reason behind Afrobeats' global acceptance and recognition.

‎
‎The 'Alcohol' crooner, while speaking in a recent interview with Zwart, explained that Nigeria has a huge population back home and abroad.

‎
‎He noted that Nigerians extroverted nature and urge to represent our culture significantly pushed Afrobeats to the world.

‎
‎He said:
‎“Afrobeats is here now because it has been a long time coming. And there’s so much talent, it’s only right that we just spread it to the world. Thankfully, Nigeria has a very huge population back home and even in the diaspora.

‎
‎“Naturally, we are very loud. That’s what they said. So, we are very out there. And, wherever we are in the world, we like to represent [our culture]. That also played a huge role [in Afrobeats gaining global attention]. And also, social media and the quality of music coming out from Nigeria.”
