Rema stirs controversy in Atlanta show, leaves fans over stage dispute

Rema, the popular Nigerian musician, took a stand against what he deemed a ‘disrespect to afrobeats’ during a recent headline show in Atlanta, USA.

In a video that has gone viral, the singer can be seen apologizing to his fans before storming off the stage at what he described as a ‘terrible venue’.

Rema expressed his frustration, stating that afrobeat is way too big to be treated in such a manner.

The ‘Calm Down’ singer emphasized his respect for his fans and the genre, vowing to reschedule the show to ensure they get the experience they deserve.

In a tweet by the user @itzbasito, the singer left the stage because the stage production was not to his satisfaction. He posted on his verified Twitter account, “Rema left the stage at his show in Atlanta because the stage production was not to his satisfaction. He said it was disrespectful to him and Afrobeats.”(sic)

Fans and followers on social media have been buzzing about the incident, with many supporting Rema’s decision to stand up for the quality of his performance and afrobeats as a whole.
