“I never knew how to sing. I painfully learned how to sing in 2018. I was a rapper, & was just dropping freestyles back to back. When I got signed, I was told that I had to sing Afrobeats. But I told them that I could only rap; I didn’t know how to sing. They told me that I was talented, but then, I can’t make it as a rapper in Nigeria. That I just have to channel my talent to singing.

“It wasn’t easy trying to learn singing. But I thought about it. I didn’t want to go back to Benin & miss all the opportunities they presented to me. The thought of going back to Benin & going back to p0verty propelled me to learn singing by force.

“I started singing Afrobeats, and the following year, 2019, I blew up.” — Rema
