Rema Shines as Fourth Cover for i-D New Wave Issue
In the latest i-D Magazine New Wave Issue, the self-acclaimed Rema shines as the fourth cover, shedding insight into his latest project and future plans.
The Ravage EP dropped last Friday, housing 5 songs and it has gained momentum in the local and international space.
Emphasis on his music progression and relevance, Rema tells i-D “I’m not saying I want to stop. But if I say I want to stop right now, my name is still going to be on the Afrobeats bible, if there is an Afrobeats bible to be dropped.”
While speaking about his vision to i-D and things he has put to work, he said “The clearest vision I have right now is that I will open so many new territories to Afrobeats. A lot of artists have been to major cities, but not smaller counties. I’ve performed in counties with a population of 1000 people, ‘cause my music could go there. That’s the vision for me: opening doors, creating bridges. I’m the bridge to a lot of undone things. I already put in the work and I know what is yet to come from me, and I’m ready.”
Notably, Rema is the second Afrobeats star to appear as a cover for the renowned British magazine after Burna Boy.
