A few years ago, if we had told Rema he would have a handshake with the top footballers in the world, all seated in one place, he may have doubted it.
Now, Rema didn’t just shake hands with them; he thrilled the audience with a performance of his hit song, ‘Calm Down’.
The 23-year-old performed at the 2023 Ballon d’Or ceremony in Paris, France, on Monday night, October 30, 2023. In fact, this date just kind of looks unique. Can you see it?
And it’s worth noting, this isn’t Rema’s first time on the international stage.
He previously wowed the crowd at the 2023 NBA All-Star halftime show, where he performed not only ‘Calm Down’ but also ‘Holiday’.
Rema has grown to be one of the top young Nigerian artists, making waves both locally and internationally.
Amazingly, this incredible journey will always be remembered as a sign of his growing success in the music industry.
