Nigerian singer Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema, has opened up about the origins of his well-defined six-pack abs. In an interview with Spotify, the talented artist shared the story behind his physical development.
Rema, who hails from Benin City, Edo State, reflected on his early days when he and his family lived in Benin City. During that time, he recounted how he used to carry buckets of water, a physically demanding task that unknowingly contributed to his muscular physique.
Additionally, he highlighted the impact of his time in Ghana, where he continued to work hard and engage in strenuous activities, further shaping his physique.
Renowned for his breakout hit "Dumebi," Rema is a skilled Nigerian singer, songwriter, and rapper who rose to stardom. In 2019, he signed a record deal with Jonzing World, a subsidiary of Mavin Records.
Recently, the musician achieved a significant milestone by headlining a concert in India. Currently on his highly anticipated Indian Tour, Rema expressed his excitement and gratitude for realizing his dream.
He took to social media to share a video of an old interview where he expressed his aspirations to make a mark in India's music scene.

In the interview from 2020, Rema questioned why Nigerian artists were not breaking into the Indian market as they were in Europe and America.
His determination to elevate Afrobeats to new heights and conquer India with his music was evident.
Three years later, the 23-year-old artist, renowned for his hit song "Calm Down," successfully sold out a concert in Delhi, India, fulfilling his ambitious dream.
