Nigerian singer Rema says he will not work with other artistes just to please fans or to make it look like there is no beef.
He made the comments during an online Live session, where he explained why some Afrobeats stars did not appear on his album.
He said every feature on the project came together naturally.
He also brushed off claims that record labels picked his guests or that he was trying to make the album look more international.
Rema said he will not make music with anyone he is not on good terms with.
He said he will not make music just to look like they are not fighting.
He also said he had already gone beyond the usual boundaries back in 2019.
In his view, real collaborations should come from genuine friendships and respect, not from pressure to keep fans happy or to cover up a rift between artistes.
