Rema named several of his senior colleagues, including Fela, Don Jazzy, 2baba, Dbanj, Davido, Wizkid, Burna Boy, and more, as he appreciated their work before he became a big name in the industry.

According to Rema these sets of musicians were even the first ones to start flying private jets and selling out stadium shows. Speaking further, the 24-year-old singer said that he enjoyed the benefits of their hard work and owes it to them to open doors for others as well.

In his words:

“They were the first even flying private jets before any of us, they were the first doing stadium shows before any of us but it had to take generations to generations to start opening doors. We finally got the attention we’ve been working so hard for decades. I won’t lie, getting in the game, I enjoyed the benefit of their hard work and I feel like it’s an unconscious responsibility for me to open doors as well.”
