“You give Benin boy chain, I go move ham sharp” – Rema tells British Jeweller, Video Trends Online [Watch]

Nigerian singer Rema, whose real name is Divine Ikubor, sparked reactions during a recent interaction with a British jeweller.

Known for his playful yet bold personality, the 24-year-old star made a remark referencing stereotypes about people from Benin City, Edo State, where he hails from.

Rema, who rose to fame in 2019 with his breakout hit Dumebi, has since become one of Africa’s leading Afrobeats exports. Signed to Mavin Records and Jonzing World, he has built an international profile with chart-topping singles such as Calm Down, which gained massive global success, including a remix featuring American pop star Selena Gomez.

His comment in the viral clip has stirred mixed opinions online. Some fans consider it lighthearted banter reflecting his Edo roots, while others criticized it for reinforcing cultural stereotypes. Despite the controversy, Rema continues to dominate conversations both for his music and his outspoken, sometimes mischievous, public persona.
