Divine Ikubor, also known as Rema, a Nigerian musician, believes that many relationships in this generation are centered on making money.
During a recent interview with the i-D Meets podcast, the young and gifted vocalist made this claim.
Rema’s favorite lines from his debut album ‘Rave & Roses’ are ‘love is not a source of income,’ which he learned through personal experience.
The artist went on to say that he couldn’t describe love because everyone has to live their own interpretation of it.
In his words:
“My favourite lyric in my album [is] ‘Love is not a source of income’. It came from my actual experience. A lot of relationships in our new generation is just really all about the gains.“It’s painful that I can’t really define love. You’ve to live your own version. I have not lived my version. I’m waiting for it though.”
