'I'd still be making money if music didn't work' - Rema

Fast-rising Afrobeats singer Divine Ikubor, better known by his stage name Rema, has asserted that he would still be wealthy even if music weren't his source of income.

Rema claimed in an interview with Korty EO that, prior to Don Jazzy, the head of the Mavin Record Label, discovering him, he was financially secure even while performing freestyles and posting on social media.

The 'Calm Down' crooner said that the financial advantages prevented him from taking part in the freestyles.

He continued by saying that if music didn't succeed for him, he would still work hard and make money.

He said: “If music didn’t work, I will still be pushing that p in the corner while hustling, you understand?

“Even at that point where I was doing freestyles, I didn’t really need to do a freestyle because I needed money. I had money. I was actually good.”
