Afrobeats star Lojay has lauded fellow artist Rema for his deep, intuitive grasp of music, citing the whispered delivery in Rema’s hit track “Soundgasm” as a powerful example of raw artistic expression.

Speaking in an interview on ‘Afrobeats Intelligence’, Lojay stressed the importance of creating music from a place of authenticity.

He urged artists to focus less on trends and more on capturing the true essence of their craft.

According to him, this genuine approach is what makes music emotionally resonant and timeless.

Lojay said, “I remember listening to Soundgasm, and Rema starts to whisper in the third verse. I was like this guy understands it like he gets it like he just gets it. It’s like that’s the feeling of the song. It does feel like somebody should be whispering in my ear right now. Yeah, and it’s like you just understand it. There are ways you just need to make music based on like or rather, when it comes to making music. Forget what’s happening outside. It’s like, what are you trying to capture?”
