Nigerian music star Rema has made it clear that genuine friendship comes first before any studio collaboration.

Rema Reveals Why He Only Records Music with People He Connects With

Nigerian music sensation Rema has shared his approach to studio collaborations, stating that he refuses to create music with any artist he does not share a personal bond with.

The singer explained that having a smooth relationship and genuine understanding is a major requirement for him before stepping into the booth with anyone, according to a report by Naija News. For him, making music goes beyond business, requiring a natural energy and mutual respect between both parties.

Over the years, the Mavin Records and Jonzing World signee has maintained a selective attitude toward studio partnerships. While he has released massive tracks alongside local and international talents like Kah-Lo, London, and Diamond Platnumz, his latest comments show that those creative link-ups rely on real-life chemistry rather than industry pressure.

The Afrobeats act has continued to expand his sound across major projects, including his early breakthrough releases and acclaimed studio records like Rave & Roses and HEIS. Listeners have also watched his style evolve across bodies of work like RAVAGE and the E-Mortal Boy EP.

With his consistent focus on originality and positive vibes, Rema has made sure his creative process remains strictly protected. For fellow musicians hoping to score a verse from him, building a genuine friendship appears to be the only way to make it happen.
