Rema reveals how fake colleagues inspired his song

Rema has revealed how fake colleagues inspired his song. He shared the story during a listening party for his second album, “He Is”.

He expressed that the industry is filled with insincere individuals, which inspired his song “Now I Know.”

Rema explained that the song is about recognizing genuine support amidst the fake and real people in the industry.

He emphasized that when someone shows genuine appreciation, it’s authentic and not a pursuit of clout.

Rema’s album, released through Mavin Records, features 11 tracks and collaborations with Shallipopi and Odumodublvck.

He said:

“There are a lot of fake people in the [music] industry, the industry is fake. So when people come and say ‘Yo, I love this guy,’ nobody should come at them that they’re chasing clout. No, it’s real.

“When somebody comes out it’s because they’ve seen someone that’s real among everybody in the crazy industry mixed with both the fake and the real. And that’s what this song [‘Now I Know] is all about. Now I know who dey for me. All those I loved turned enemies. Now I know who dey for me. All those I trust turned enemies.”
