Nigerian singer Adedamola Adefolahan, popularly known as Fireboy DML has stated he and colleague, Rema decided on a collaboration to prove a point to fans who expected a beef from them.
According to YBNL signee, he said they took the decision because they are advanced and they are also the leading stars of the new generation.
Speaking in an interview with Apple Music’s Ebro, Fireboy revealed said he has five proper collaborations with Rema.
“Myself and Rema are the two leading [Afrobeats] artists of our generation. We came together and realised that instead of giving the fans what they want, which is beef, let’s collaborate. Because we are too advanced for this stuff.
“We didn’t even give them a club banger, we made proper music. We have five more collaborations.”
Fireboy and Rema were subjects of comparisons on social media after hitting stardom in the same year.
The comparisons subsided after Fireboy featured Rema on a track titled, ‘Compromise’ off his third studio album, ‘Playboy’.
The collaborative song was an indication that they were on good terms.
