There'll Be No Me Without D’Prince – Rema

Nigerian pop sensation Rema has expressed his gratitude to his mentor and benefactor, Charles Enebeli, better known as D’Prince, in a recent Twitter post.

The Afrorave star acknowledged that his successful music career wouldn’t have been possible without the help of the Jonzing World boss, who signed him to the subsidiary label of Mavin Records in 2019.

In his post, Rema shared a photo with D’Prince and expressed that without the Mavin Records boss, he wouldn’t exist as a musician.

Rema wrote: “Without D’prince they’ll be no me. @DPRINCEMAVIN. (sic)”

Rema rose to fame with the release of “Dumebi” and has since established a large fanbase with his unique Afrorave sound, which combines Afrobeats with influences of Arabian and Indian music.

His debut EP, Rema, was released shortly after signing with Jonzing World, and one of its songs, was even included on former President Barack Obama’s summer playlist.

After two more successful EPs, Rema released his debut album, Rave & Roses, in March 2022, featuring collaborations with 6lack, Chris Brown, AJ Tracey, and Yseult. The album made a strong impact on the US Billboard Afrobeats Chart, charting 10 songs in its debut week.

One of the singles from the album, “Calm Down”, featuring a sample from Nigerian artist Crayon’s track “So Fine”, continued to gain popularity and even received a remix with Selena Gomez that debuted at number 91 on the Billboard Hot 100.

The 22-year-old star has been making waves in the music industry and continues to captivate audiences with his unique sound and artistry.

Published

Nigerian music star David Adeleke, widely known as Davido, has disagreed with the advice that voters should leave polling stations immediately after casting their ballots in the ongoing Edo State gubernatorial election.

Davido’s reaction came in response to a statement by Frank Mba, the Deputy Inspector General of Police responsible for election security.

In an interview with Channels Television on Saturday morning, Mba urged Edo residents to fulfill their civic duty and return home after voting.

He also announced a restriction on vehicular movement in the state from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on election day. “If you’re not accredited for the election, stay off the streets. Cast your vote and go home; it’s your civic duty,” Mba said.

However, Davido, a supporter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), had a different view.

He suggested that voters should remain at the polling stations to ensure their votes are properly counted and to prevent any potential electoral misconduct.

In a tweet, he responded to Mba’s advice with a humorous yet critical tone, writing, “Loooooooool go where ???”

Davido, whose mother is from Edo State, had previously expressed his support for the PDP candidate, Asue Ighodalo.

On September 15, 2024, the singer posted on Instagram, endorsing Ighodalo as “the next Governor of my Mother’s Homeland @asueighodalo.”
