Nigerian singer Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema, has sparked a heated debate in the music industry by suggesting he’s on the same level as Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy – the widely recognized “Big 3” of Afrobeats.
In a recent social media post, Rema boldly declared, “No more Big 3, there’s now a Big 4,” implying he’s earned a spot alongside the trio. The statement has garnered mixed reactions from fans and critics alike.
While some agree with Rema’s assertion, citing his impressive streaming numbers and chart successes, others argue that he needs to maintain consistency over a longer period to join the elite ranks of Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy.
The “Big 3” have dominated the Afrobeats scene for years, achieving international recognition and accolades. Rema’s claim has sparked a conversation about the evolving landscape of Nigerian music and who deserves a spot among the industry’s top tier.
Only time will tell if Rema’s declaration will spark a new era in Afrobeats or if he’ll need to continue proving himself to solidify his position among the genre’s heavyweights.
