David Attenborough takes a breathtaking journey through the vast and diverse continent of Africa as it has never been seen before. (Part 5: Sahara) Northern Africa is home to the greatest desert on Earth, the Sahara. On the fringes, huge zebras battle over dwindling resources and naked mole rats avoid the heat by living a bizarre underground existence. Within the desert, where the sand dunes 'sing', camels seek out water with the help of their herders and tiny swallows navigate across thousands of square miles to find a solitary oasis. This is a story of an apocalypse and how, when nature is overrun, some are forced to flee, some endure, but a few seize the opportunity to establish a new order.

The "proper story" behind Rema's global hit is a blend of a real-life club encounter and a deliberate effort to create high-energy music during a somber time. The Real-Life Inspiration

: He saw a girl who stood out to him, but when he tried to "shoot his shot" and get her number, she was playing hard to get.

: The song became the longest-charting African song on the Billboard Hot 100 and the first African artist-led track to reach 1 billion streams on Spotify .

: The song was recorded in 2021. Rema noticed many songs at the time were "depressing or sad" due to the pandemic, so he purposefully sought out an uptempo beat to make people dance.

While the original was already a hit, the remix featuring propelled it to historic heights.

: To get her to listen, he literally told her to "calm down" and give him a listening ear so he could express how he felt. The Studio Process

: Producer Andre Vibez played several beats for Rema during a session. "Calm Down" was the third beat played that day; Rema immediately connected with it and asked the producer to keep it.
