Nigerian sensation Rema has rapidly made a name for himself in the music industry, garnering worldwide acclaim in a short span of time. In a recent interview with Apple Music Africa Now Radio, Rema shared his thoughts on the legacy he hopes to leave behind with his art. He believes that he was chosen as a vessel to make an everlasting imprint on the world, and music is the medium through which he can do that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“For me, it\u2019s mostly internal, when I hear the voice in my head it\u2019s leading me and I feel like a vessel, to leave a mark in the world. It\u2019s like I\u2019m chosen for it so whether or not I try to run away from it, it\u2019s just what it is.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rema has established himself as an artist who values creativity and uniqueness, always aiming to push boundaries and set new standards. His avant-garde fashion choices, fused with his storytelling and branding, have helped him build a loyal following that resonates with his music. “In 50 years to come, people are going to trace a lot of things back to me – songs back to me, fashion style back to me, visuals back to me, a whole bunch. I want to be able to touch all areas of life, but music is like the first rocket. When it detaches, it goes to wherever it needs to go,” says Rema.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Despite being a young artist, Rema has already achieved monumental feats in his career. He became the youngest African artist to sell out the O2 Arena, and his latest EP, RAVAGE, is a testament to his growth and evolution as a musician. However, for Rema, success is not just about dropping hit songs or living a flashy lifestyle. He believes in investing in young creatives, supporting them to bring their crazy ideas to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I\u2019m not just here because I want to drop a banger, make some money, and live a flashy life. I\u2019m supportive of creatives. Everyone wants to create, I feel like a lot of creatives have a place in my journey, so I do as best as possible to reinvest in my career, and in myself.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rema’s art is guided by his spirit, and he is determined to make a lasting impact that transcends generations. With his passion and dedication, it’s certain that Rema’s influence in music and fashion will continue to be felt for many years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
