First and foremost, Rema’s arrival was a show-stopping moment. The crowd was struck speechless when he appeared on a horse. Other Afrobeat musicians, such as Burna Boy, might want to think about investing on equally magnificent entrances in order to set the tone for an evening that will be remembered for a very long time.

Second, Rema did not use any pressure tactics to get the crowd to sing together with him. Rema’s less authoritative delivery allow the listener to relax and take pleasure in the music, in contrast to Burna Boy. Burna Boy should probably realize that fans will sing if they feel like it; they came to hear the artist perform, not to be told to sing by Burna Boy or anybody else.

Thirdly, Rema managed the crowd with poise and deftly sidestepped any opportunity for rudeness. Burna Boy is unquestionably a pioneer in the Afrobeat genre; yet, he might take a page from Rema’s book and learn how to handle the crowd in a respectful manner, so avoiding showing any contempt toward his followers.

 In contrast to Burna Boy, Rema did not use curse words when talking to the fans which brings us to our fourth point. It seems uncool to use curse words when performing Afrobeat, particularly in front of a paying audience. Burner sometimes uses the (F word) Etc. I heard him use the (B word once on stage and that was disgusting)Let your great music minister to your fans not some of your unacceptable stage manners!

Last but not least, Rema showed genuine talent at the “RAVAGE UPRISING” event, which is in contrast to a recent statement by Burna Boy that Afrobeat is devoid of  substance. The creative talent was on full display during the high-energy performance as well as the electrifying  connection formed with the audience.

Taking into account Rema’s younger and more active fan base, in addition to his capacity to create a riveting presentation, it is possible that he will soon be the new king of the Afrobeat genre. Burna Boy has to take a page out of Rema’s playbook and elevate his game now that the competition has stepped it up.

It is impossible to deny that Rema has ascended to the throne of the Afrobeat genre, and as the sounds of “DND” rang through the O2 Arena, it became abundantly evident that a new era may be on the horizon for the Afrobeat genre.
With his one-of-a-kind approach, the young superstar, who is only 23 years old, mesmerized the audience of 20,000 at the illustrious O2 Arena during this spectacular performance. Rema’s big arrival on stage, in which he rode a horse decked up in his distinctive red and black colors and arrived in style, served as a metaphor for the enthralling experience he was about to provide for his followers.

Rema’s appearance on stage emanated an aura of mystique and regality as she was cloaked in a long, flowing black mantle and dressed with a mask that was evocative of the fabled Benin Queen, Idia. He began the evening with the pulsing rhythms of “DND,” displaying not just his musical skill but also a genuine sense of theatrics, and the audience was completely mesmerized by his performance.

Rema, in contrast to Burna Boy’s authoritative demeanor, let the music to speak for itself, which allowed his humility to shine through. Fans were able to immerse themselves in the event in a natural way because there was no pressure to participate on the part of the audience. This attitude was a welcome break from the norm, and it demonstrated Rema’s confidence in his ability to perform his job.

In addition, the fact that Rema did not communicate with the audience using any sexually suggestive language highlighted a level of professionalism that is sometimes ignored in the sector. The night belonged to the music, and Rema allowed it to speak for itself rather than depending on superfluous remarks that would have turned off some of his varied audience.

Throughout the course of the event, it became abundantly clear that Rema was not only putting on a show; rather, he was directing an artistic experience. Rema’s ability to fluidly mix singles into a great narration, which left the audience in amazement. And his artistry just destroyed Burna Boy’s claim that there is a lack of depth in Afrobeat.
