Rema’s claim to fame
Rema was noted for his afro-rave music in West Africa. In March 2019, the rapper released his self-titled album EP, which went on to become quite the rage. The singles in the album Corny, Dumebi, and Iron Man even made it to Barack Obama’s playlist. This soon gave him global recognition.
In 2022, the banger Calm Down hit the charts and smashed records. The version of the song where he collaborated with Selena Gomez has 10 billion cumulative streams online, leading it to earn a platinum certification.
Speaking about the concert, Rema said in a statement, “Namaste India. I’m super excited to be visiting India, I’ve always been fascinated by the cultural landscape of the country and it feels amazing to be finally touring the country. Can’t wait to join all my lovely Indian fans in the arenas in May 2023.”
