In other news, In a new interview, Rema, the stage name of famous Nigerian singer and songwriter Divine Ikubor, finally talks about why he chose to start smoking.

In the past few months, Rema, the singer of “Beamer,” has kept bringing up worries about how much he smokes at different events.

However, the “Ozeba” singer said that after his father died, he had to take care of his family by himself, which made him feel like he had to “sell” his youth.

After being honest with GRM, Rema, 24, said that he wants to “feel young again.” It was said by the musician that he started smoking recently to feel “free and break some rules.”

“I really wanted to feel like a child again,” he said. It seems like I grew up too quickly. When I lost my dad and my brother, my whole world changed. It was like a weight was on my back, and I had to sell my youth to support my family.

“God willing, everything happened well, it happened fast. And with fast fame, comes fast maturity. It’s just like never ending level of seriousness. So much adults. So much meetings. I didn’t even rolled with my age mates.

“So this project [‘HeIs’], I just want to be a child. And it’s coming out. It’s not me forcing it out. It just sparked in my spirit. I just want to feel young again. I just to be a rebel. You know, kids make mistakes and it’s acceptable. But when you’re a teenager and you make the same mistake your peers would make, everyone will come for you just because you’re in the spotlight.

“I know people who smoked a cigarette when they were 13 and I’m 24 smoking a cigarette because I just want to feel free and break some rules. All my life just feel so planned and scheduled. I just got tired.”

Rema also talks about competing with the Big 3 on GRM daily.
