Rema Claims He Opened the Door for Afrobeats in Major Award Shows
Rema Claims He Opened the Door for Afrobeats in Major Award Shows....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Nigerian singer Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema, has asserted that the growing recognition of Afrobeats in global award shows can be attributed to the success of his hit song, Calm Down. Speaking during an interview on The Breakfast Club, Rema noted that his influence has contributed to the introduction of Afrobeats categories in prestigious international awards.
Rema, who has rapidly ascended to the top of the Afrobeats scene, did not hesitate to place himself alongside industry heavyweights such as Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy. “I don’t want to feel like an Afrobeats Messiah,” he remarked. “Sometimes I can’t wait for the OGs to say it, but since no one is saying it, I might have to say it myself. Respect to the OGs, but yeah, I am one of the Big 4.”
He went on to emphasize that the recent creation of an Afrobeats category at major award shows, such as the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs), was a direct result of his music’s impact. “Something as little as a major award show creating an Afrobeats category because the success of my song has already opened gates,” Rema stated, highlighting the growing influence of the genre.
Rema’s track Calm Down and its remix featuring Selena Gomez made waves internationally, ultimately winning the first-ever Best Afrobeats Song award at the VMAs last year. His growing global presence continues to break barriers, solidifying his position within the genre and elevating Afrobeats to new heights on the world stage.
