Nigerian sensation Divine Ikubor, better known as Rema, has sparked a debate within the music industry by suggesting that he shares the same status as renowned artists Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Davido.
These three artists, collectively known as the “Big 3” in the Nigerian and Afrobeats music scene, have attained international acclaim and are widely celebrated for their contributions to the genre.
Rema’s assertion of being part of this elite group came through a recent social media post, where he boldly proclaimed, “No more Big 3, there’s now a Big 4.”
While his statement garnered support from some fans who believe in his rising prominence, others voiced contrasting opinions. Despite Rema’s notable achievements in terms of streaming numbers and chart success, skeptics argue that sustained consistency over time is necessary to solidify his place among the industry’s elite.
This declaration from Rema has ignited discussions among music enthusiasts, highlighting differing perspectives on the criteria for attaining status within the Nigerian and Afrobeats music landscape.
