Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Rema has set the record straight on some of the wildest rumors about him—including claims that he’s part of the Illuminati, worships the devil, and even drinks blood!
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, the Calm Down hitmaker addressed the bizarre conspiracy theories circulating online, revealing that they’ve actually cost him some fans. “Random stories have been made up about me being Illuminati, worshipping the devil, and drinking blood. I definitely lose some fans who just believe anything they see,” Rema explained.
Despite the outlandish claims, the Grammy-nominated star remains focused on his music and continues to dominate the Afrobeats scene. He also shared the deeper meaning behind the pendants he wears, revealing that they are tributes to his late father and brother—proof that his style is driven by personal sentiment rather than any secret society.
As one of Afrobeats’ biggest global exports, Rema isn’t letting the rumors slow him down. His unique sound, electrifying performances, and chart-topping hits speak louder than internet gossip. Whether he’s breaking streaming records or shutting down baseless claims, one thing is clear—Rema is here to stay!
