Rema storms off stage in US over ‘terrible’ venue

Famous Nigerian musician, Rema, was vexed recently at a recent show he headlined in Atlanta, USA due to what he described as a ‘disrespect to afrobeats’.

In a video making the rounds on the Nigerian digital space, the singer was seen apologising to his fans as he stormed off the stage which was said to be a ‘terrible venue’.

While storming off the stage, the Calm Down singer said, “Afrobeat is way too big to look like this. I don’t want to take rubbish, I respect my fans. We are not doing this. I am going to have to reschedule this show. They have disrespected me and disrespected afrobeat by treating you guys like this. I love you.”
