The Afrobeats singer made this known during an interview with Jam FM, where he discussed his awareness of the influence he has on young people who look up to him.

The 26-year-old artiste noted that many young people, including his fans, see him as a source of inspiration and aspire to achieve similar levels of success.

However, Rema explained that constantly displaying his wealth could make some of them feel inadequate or believe they were falling behind in life.

He said he is conscious of how people perceive his lifestyle, particularly those still working towards their personal and professional ambitions.

The singer stressed that he does not want anyone to compare their progress with his or feel compelled to achieve certain milestones within a specific timeframe.

Speaking during the interview, Rema said many young people admire him because he represents something they hope to accomplish, adding that he tries not to make anyone feel inferior or pressured by his achievements.

He explained that people sometimes rush their own journeys after seeing others of the same age making progress, which can create unnecessary anxiety and unrealistic expectations.

According to the singer, although some people have advised him not to worry about how his lifestyle might affect others, he remains concerned that displaying his riches could be misunderstood.

Rema also highlighted the role parents play in putting young people under pressure by comparing them with others and forcing them to pursue careers they may not genuinely desire.

He noted that some children end up studying courses they have little interest in simply because their parents want them to secure well-paying jobs.

The singer said he wants young people to pursue their ambitions at their own pace rather than feel compelled to rush their lives because of his achievements.

Explaining his preference for a simple lifestyle, Rema said he enjoys wearing streetwear and does not frequently wear expensive designer outfits.

He added that his chains and wristwatches are perhaps the most extravagant aspects of his appearance.

“I have something they want or dream of, so I do my best not to make anyone feel bad about themselves or feel pressured,” the singer said.
