It Was Very Unfortunat3 – Rema Clears Air On St3aling His Friend’s Laptop

Popular singer, Divine Ikubor, aka Rema, has cleared the air on his controversial lyrics on his hit song ‘Holiday’.

Recall that the singer was accused of glorifying crim3 after he boasted about st3aling one of his friend’s laptop during his struggl!ng days in Benin in his song ‘Holiday’.

But in a recent interview with Cool FM Lagos, Rema said it wasn’t his intention to glorify ste@ling, adding that it was very unfortunate some people saw it so.

He said,
“The lyric was good enough to explain the whole scenario. It’s not that deep. I really don’t want to glorify st3aling, but it was just very unfortunat3 [that happened at that time].”

Rema also clarified the misconceptions about his album ‘Rave & Roses’ cover art which depicts a house upside-down burning.

He said,
“A lot of people had a lot of misconc3ptions [about the album cover], they said it’s a church. Anything they just see cross, they say it’s a church. It’s not a church. The cover art inspiration was an embodiment of me consist of a cross and a fire. The whole house actually kind of signifies me.”
