Rema warns Afrobeats is losing originality, sparks heated debate

In a viral video, 24-year-old Rema expressed his concerns that Afrobeats is being watered down and losing its originality.

According to Rema, the constant collaborations with international artists are diluting the sound and making it easier for others to recreate. He emphasized the need for Nigerians to take ownership and protect their sound, saying, “We gotta take our ish back, we gotta own it, we have to protect it.”
