"I’m just grateful Equal Africa Ambassador. Thank you Spotify Africa for the opportunity to represent this initiative. Cheers to many more wins," she said.

She said she feel appreciated as a young talent.
"You know they know that with persistence and originality, authenticity, that there is a space for her in New York Times Square where she can be appreciated."
In May this year, Rema said he would like to work with singer Karun of the former disbanded group Camp Mulla.
"Karun is super dope, they played me one of her songs and all the time I was like another one, another one," he said.
"I think she is super talented and the whole world needs to hear her voice, the world needs to hear what she is doing. Her vibe is different and I have never heard that type of music before and I will tell my producer to reach out because I actually wanna work with her because she is special."
