‘If Music Didn’t Work, I Will Still Be Making Money’ – Rema

Nigerian singer, Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema, has claimed he would still be making money if music isn’t working for him.

Naija News reports that in an interview with Korty EO, Rema said he was financially buoyant even while doing freestyles and posting on social media, before the Mavin Record Label boss, Don Jazzy, discovered him.

The ‘Calm Down’ crooner said he wasn’t doing the freestyles because of the financial benefits.

He added he would still hustle and make money if music didn’t work.

He said, “If music didn’t work, I will still be pushing that p in the corner while hustling, you understand?

“Even at that point where I was doing freestyles, I didn’t really need to do a freestyle because I needed money. I had money. I was actually good.”

We All Fall Under Afrobeats

Meanwhile, Rema has told his colleagues that irrespective of their music styles, they will all still come together under the Afrobeats umbrella for award shows.

Rema stated this while receiving his award for Best Male Artiste of the Year at the 2023 Headies Awards in Atlanta, USA, on Sunday.

The Afrobeats superstar noted that he came to the award night to show his support for the institution that helped in pushing his success story.
