<p>Born Divine Ikubor, the 24-year-old artiste from Edo State discovered his passion for music as a church chorister and a rapper who entertained his peers in his secondary school, Ighile Group of Schools in Edo State.</p>
<p>Rema came into limelight after posting a viral freestyle on Instagram to D&#8217;Prince&#8217;s song &#8220;Gucci Gang&#8221;. Wowed by his rare talent, D&#8217;Prince flew him to Lagos and offered him a record deal with Jonzing World, a subsidiary of Mavin Records owned by music executive and producer Don Jazzy. His 2019 hit &#8220;Dumebi&#8221; was the first fruit of the contract.</p>
<p>His international breakthrough happened in 2022 with his single &#8220;Calm Down&#8221;, which led to a remix with American singer Selena Gomez. The song peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100 and first on Billboard Afrobeats Songs chart for a record-setting 58 weeks.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>His talents have earned him several awards including the MTV Video Music Award for Best Afrobeats Video and the Billboard Music Award for Top Afrobeats Songs.</p>
