Speaking on the production of his latest hit Singles Beamer (Bad Boy) and Rainbow with Rvssian and Divy, Rema said :
“He’s (Rvssian is) a great guy, I was confused because he had some many beats… We made two songs that day, but I made ‘Beamer’ last. I spent a lot of hours and even Rvssian left.
“I made ‘Why’ that day – shout-out to Divvythe producer. ‘Why’ is a song about heartbreak. It made me really sad that day, so I asked Divvyto give me something upbeat to get excited by. So, I started making something about fast cars, girls and cool kid-stuff. I liked it and D’Prince and I started bumping to it.”
It will be recalled that Rema yesterday reacted when his hit track Beamer Bad Boy topped the list most played songs in Nigeria on Apple music chart.
