Breaking News: Rema Asserts Himself as a Force to be Reckoned with in the Afrobeats Scene
In a recent interview with The Breakfast Club, Rema, the Nigerian afrobeats sensation, boldly claimed his spot alongside the "Afrobeats Big 3" – a term used to describe the trio of Davido, Wizkid, and Burna Boy. This statement has sent shockwaves through the music industry, with many fans and critics alike wondering if Rema has earned his place among the elite.
Rema attributed his rapid rise to the fact that his success came too quickly, which he believes has led to reluctance from some to acknowledge his claims. He also referenced his record-breaking song "Calm Down" with Selena Gomez, stating that his career has not followed the traditional 10-year rule that many established artists have followed.
In a bold statement, Rema declared, "With respect to the OGs, but I am one of them…" when asked if he believes he deserves a spot next to Davido, Burna Boy, and Wizkid. This assertion has sparked intense debate, with some arguing that Rema has the talent and achievements to justify his claim, while others believe that he still has to prove himself over the long haul.
Rema’s sophomore album "HEIS" and his debut EP "Ravage" have both received widespread critical acclaim, cementing his position as a force to be reckoned with in the afrobeats scene. His rapid rise has been nothing short of phenomenal, with many praising his unique sound and infectious energy.
