Nigerian singer Rema has revealed that he is not open to having children outside of marriage, emphasizing his belief in family values and intentional living.
Speaking in a recent Rolling Stone magazine feature, where he made history as the first Black African star to grace its cover, Rema shared his views on relationships and fatherhood.
“I feel like there’s a need for us [family] to get bigger and become a whole empire if we can. And then neither do I want to wait for it to become a mistake before I decide to be a father. I’m very particular, and I don’t really be h*eing around,” he stated.
The Calm Down crooner also spoke about his relationship with fellow artists Ayra Starr and South African singer Tyla, describing them as family and close friends.
Meanwhile, American singer and actress Selena Gomez has expressed her admiration for Rema. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Gomez praised his artistry and predicted a limitless future for him.
“I am completely impressed with Rema as an artiste. I believe the future for him is truly endless of what he can achieve,” she said, adding that she was already a fan of Calm Down before joining its remix.
