In a recent statement, the popular Nigerian artist Divine Ikubor, recognized by his professional moniker Rema, openly shared the distinctive qualities that set him apart from other musicians.

In an interview, Rema candidly revealed a facet of his creative process that distinguishes him: he has never enlisted the services of a songwriter throughout his career.

According to Rema, every song he has unveiled since stepping into the limelight has originated solely from his creative prowess. He emphasized that he independently crafts and records his tracks within the studio environment.

Rema, who is a signee under Don Jazzy's esteemed record label, confidently asserts that while he collaborates with producers for crafting beats, he remains the sole contributor to the lyrical aspects of his music.

Rema said; “Everything you have heard all written by me. I’ve never used a songwriter in my life and that is what it is been all about. The only thing I could add in composing a song is just actual producer. Yeah, you know for the beats. But when it comes to like creating, I do my thing a lot. I’m mostly in the studio alone.”

Reminiscent of Rema's meteoric rise to fame, it was his 2020 release "Dumebi" that served as the catalyst for his ascent. Since then, the artist has solidified his presence within the Nigerian music industry, playing a pivotal role in elevating Afrobeats to an international platform.

Renowned for an array of chart-topping tracks, including "Calm Down," "Ginger Me," "Charm," "Bounce," "Soundgasm," and "Won Da Mo," Rema has etched his mark in the hearts of music enthusiasts worldwide.

A remarkable highlight in his journey is the groundbreaking accomplishment of his global hit, "Calm Down," featuring Selena Gomez. This collaboration achieved an unprecedented feat by reigning atop the Billboard US Afrobeats songs chart for an entire year, a milestone that etches its place in history.
