Billboard Don Call Rema One-Hit Wonder, Na Wetin Be Dis?

My people, e don happen again oh! Billboard wey dey claim dem sabi music don enter wahala as dem label our guy Rema as one-hit wonder!

Dis gbege come after dem reshare an article wey drop for June 2025, wey put Rema for number six as one of dem one-hit wonders because of him jam ‘Calm Down’ wey feature Selena Gomez. E no go sweet for person wey don blow like Rema, na true?

Dem talk say na di remix of ‘Calm Down’ na im blow well well, peaking for number 3 on Billboard Hot 100. But dem come add say since then, Rema never show face for dat particular chart again, wahala no dey small!

As dem drop dis post, social media don scatter. Many people dey vex! Dem dey call Billboard disrespectful, dey downplay Rema and him hits. Na so e be, some people reason am say dem dey judge based on how wey him dey perform for U.S. market, abi wetin una go call am?

User Pauline come talk say, “Una don really see Africans finish… Rema one hit wonder? Make una enjoy! Na bad governance dey cause all dis disrespect wey Africans dey face everywhere.” E no lie jare, na true matter!

Another person wey sabi as Getme1082445 come yan say, “All I could see is hate on Rema’s greatness. ‘Calm Down’ don dey global hit before Selena even join. Rema don drop plenty bangers wey dey resonate all over.” This one make sense no be small!

Dey talk say, na people we no get proper understanding of Afrobeat go just dey talk like dem sabi am, when dem no even fit understand di levels wey Rema dey operate. Another Twitter user even talk say dis kind classification go just dey undermine Afrobeat genre as e dey grow globally. Na wah!

People dey reason hard how Billboard fit just label person wey don push Afrobeat to di world like Rema as one-hit wonder. Him don drop singles like ‘Dumebi,’ ‘Iron Man‘ and ‘Woman‘ wey don also make waves. Wetin una expect? Na dem wan plan am down?

Rema, wey real name na Divine Ikubor, don do plenty since him release ‘Calm Down’ dey shake ground. E don follow jam with Chris Brown, perform for Coachella and even Wireless Festival. E never even talk for di yawa wey dey go on, him dey focus on him career.

So as dis matter dey drag, make we keep our fingers crossed because Rema dey do am big. E still dey climb, and e no look like him go stop anytime soon. Afrobeat no be one-hit wonder o! Rema, we dey root for you jare!
