Nigerian Afrobeats artist Divine Ikubor, better known online as Rema, has ignited the internet with a rarely-seen behavior.
Smoking appears to have been a cultural norm among Nigerian singers in recent times, especially among the biggest names in the business like Davido, Wizkid, Burna Boy, Olamide, and others. Rema defies this misconception, though, as he rarely appears to smoke in his music videos or on the internet.
Rema even resisted the temptation to take a puff from the well-known rapper Shallipopi during their recent hangout, as seen in a viral video.
In a startling turn of events, a new video surfaced showing the “Calm Down” hit-maker smoking, with a heavy cloud of smoke surrounding him. He arrived at a function with an unmistakable swag, stepping out of his beautiful fast car to the pulsing beats of Ayra Starr’s newest hit, “Bad Vibes,” starring Seyi Vibez, resonating from the speakers.
After exchanging pleasantries for a little while with friend and longtime collaborator, London, he returned to his indulgence in thick clouds of smoke, leaving his audience completely enthralled and fascinated by his mysterious presence.
Many found themselves trolling Shallipopi for what they saw as his influence on Rema’s eventual decision to start smoking, while others couldn’t help but bombard the Mavin star with adorable and taunting comments about his latest habit.
