Burna Boy, Nigerian Afrofusion star, has applauded Mavin- signee Rema who sent Twitter into a frenzy with a series of posts today.
The 20-year-old singer had expressed his frustrations as a singer and addressed his colleagues in the music industry; stating that no one should label him a proud or rude artiste simply because he keeps to himself in social settings.
“Niggas don’t wanna see a kid win, they feel I got it too easy. I shower with my sweat. We go off on this side like the days in BENIN it got nun to do with my deal,” he wrote.
“Come and sign these papers without a hustler spirit, you gone lose! Management gone change my password now lol. I climbed this cliff with a bunch of rejected beats.
“Some niggas hate me because of that. When we in the same room together, don’t label me proud or rude because I don’t smile, talk or laugh to your jokes.
“Niggas label my music rubbish because I infuse my Edo language. Because I didn’t follow the usual guidelines to music, because I hacked Afrobeats with God-given melodies.
“They called it ‘Indian’ because they do not understand me. I’m not of this world, know this now!”
In his reaction, Burna Boy praised the singer and added that Rema made his day.
“It’s not too often (probably never) that an artist from Nigeria says something so real that a nigga like me can relate to. You are one of the last of a dying breed. Don’t ever let them break you or change you,” the Wonderful crooner tweeted.
“It warms my heart to see that there is still a place for Real Niggaz in this weird world where lies are the new truth and spoilt kids and People who have never even been in a real fist fight in their lives are the new Real Niggaz.
“I’m so happy I had to come back on Twitter for 2mins. Big up @heisrema for real bro. You really made my day. I dey for you Officially.”
