An emotional Rema was quite reflective as he pondered on some profound private matters.
Nigerian singer Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema, has left his fans concerned after going on a massive rant on social media.
The young music star took to his Twitter page today being Monday, September 28, 2020, where he highlighted his past and present experiences in the music industry.
What first seemed like lines from an upcoming project became serious when he started talking about some deeply personal issues and making worrisome revelations.
He had shots for everybody including his detractors, the girl who rejected him and inspired ‘Why’ and his first engineer who ran away. Then he took time out to thank Barack Obama for featuring his song, ‘Iron Man’ on that playlist and producer, Ozedikus for sticking with him through the tough times.
The 20 year-old crooner didn’t hold back as he also talked about his mother and late brother. Rema said his brother was deserted by his friends when he needed them the most on his sick bed.
He apologized to one Eric whose laptop he stole in 2017. According to him, he was the only man in the family at the time and had to do all in his power to fend for them.
This comes barely a day after Rema gave an electric performance at the grand finale of the Big Brother Naija reality show.

When we in the same room together don’t label me proud or rude because I don’t smile, talk or laugh to your jokes.

I protect my spirit and my flesh, whatever scar I die with my reborn shall possess.

Thank you OBAMA for seeing what I saw in Ironman, lot of niggas couldn’t. I was 18 when I made that song, the beat got 6 sounds. I’ll give that simple beat to half the game and I won’t get a record as strong as IRONMAN.

I done did Melodies that never existed in this world, go listen to my records. I swear them engineers thought I was crazy when I say turn off the auto tune.

To the girl who rejected me before this fame, I’m eating the royalties off this pain. (WHY)

Ozedikus took risks for me, he was under a management with guidelines. He sneaked beats to me so I could record when my first engineer left me because we couldn’t pay him at the time. All the beats Ozedikus sneaked are now HITS.

Eric, Sorry I stole your Laptop in 2017, I know you were trying to help me. My Mom had a child on the way, I was the only man in my family. They made fun of her because she got pregnant, I wanted to prove them wrong bro, I had to do it.

When my late brother did house parties y’all came, when he died only 2 friends stood beside his death bed. That’s why I’m not comfortable around people, they love me because I have something to offer, You know yourselves don’t let me catch you!!!
— REMA (@heisrema) September 28, 2020
Dear new generation artists, let’s be friends genuinely, don’t let this people forcefully make us friends just to prove healthy competition and make us enemies for their own entertainment. I swear I love y’all.

I’m not excited to be here, I’m SUPPOSE to be here. The game handpicked me that’s why I said “ANOTHER BAGER”!!! on my first track.

Mom don’t need my money, she just wanna be happy. She said invest so your children don’t suffer like you did.
— REMA (@heisrema) September 28, 2020
Niggas label my music rubbish because I infuse my Edo language. Because I didn’t follow the usual guidelines to music, because I hacked Afrobeats with God given melodies, they called it ‘Indian’ because they DO NOT UNDERSTAND ME. I’m not of this world, know this now!
