“Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Rema has responded to reports surrounding his highly-publicized performance at the wedding of Anant Ambani, son of billionaire Mukesh Ambani, and Radhika Merchant in Mumbai on July 12.
Rema was asked about the alleged $3 million payment for his performance, where he reportedly sang his hit single “Calm Down” at the Jio World Centre.
In a recent interview with GRM, Rema addressed the reports, shedding light on the speculation surrounding his involvement in the high-profile wedding celebration.”
“Hehehe. That’s what I can say, to be honest. Money-wise, but overall, it was a great treatment. It was beautiful.”
“I love India. India loves me, too. And it’s just beautiful to see something that people trolled me for, criticised me for. And now, I’m benefiting from that.”
“Imagine if I stopped. Imagine if I actually listened to the trolls online and switched up my sound.”
“Four years later, it paid and still paying and more to come. India is a huge territory. I’m actually the first afrobeats artiste to tour India. I’m even probably the first African if I’m not wrong, but if I’m mistaking, please, forgive me. But it’s a huge deal.”
“It’s not just about the wedding. It’s about the reception everywhere I go. I remember when I was touring India, I didn’t even know how they knew. When I go anywhere just to eat, it’s just paparazzi. It’s crazier than the love in Nigeria.”
