Sunday, August 18, 2024 -Paulo Okoye, the popular Nigerian music executive, has claimed that famous afrobeats singer, Rema overprices himself.
In a chat with media personality Ifedayo Olarinde, aka
Daddy Freeze, Paulo stated that Rema needs to do more shows and attract a huge
fanbase to earn his price tag.
He said: “Rema is on
another level, he’s a Gen Z superstar. He’s our major face of African music.
They [Western world] regard Rema the same way they regard American artists.
“But the problem about Rema at the moment is overpricing. I
think he overpriced himself. He needs to do more shows to build a huge fanbase
to earn his price tag.”
Paulo also claimed that the earnings of Rema and his
colleague, Asake have dropped.
According to the show promoter, in the past, both singers
earned up to $4m and $5m but it has dropped to $2m (N3.2b) and $3m (N4.8b) in
2023 and 2024.
Recall that Rema made headlines after he performed at
Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding on July 12 at the Jio World Centre
in Bandra Kurla Centre, BKC, in Mumbai.
