After a quiet start to the year, Rema kicked off 2024 with the release of his new single ‘Benin Boys’ in collaboration with Shallipopi. The single debuted at No. 1 on the TurnTable Top 100, earning both artists their third No. 1 on the chart.
Rema seems poised for a strong second half of the year, with his teasers indicating a more flamboyant, confident, and experimental phase in his career. This new direction follows a historic 2023, where his hit single ‘Calm Down’ became the first Afrobeats song to reach 1 billion Spotify streams.
The dark imagery in his recent videos reflects the artistry he showcased in the music videos for his 2023 releases ‘DND’ and ‘Smooth Criminal.’ He also highlighted the iconography of his Bini heritage in his fashion and set design during his landmark O2 Arena concert in 2023.
