Rema, Davido, Burna Boy and 5 other Nigerian music stars who have performed at Sporting events across the world
Rema made history as the first Nigerian musician to perform at the Ballon d'Or Awards ceremony, presented by France Football.
His loyalty to the Al Nassr star was laid bare publicly once more, as he denied the validity of Argentina’s third Mundial, as he believes it was rigged for the Inter Miami star, who is Ronaldo’s rival.
What Reminisce said
‘Baba Afusa', as he is also known, was speaking on the Zero Conditions podcast as part of the press run for his new album Alaye To Se Go Go (ATSG Vol. 1), where, other than music, he discussed his other passion, football.
Like former Netherlands boss Louis Van Gaal, Reminisce is also of the sentiment that Messi winning the World Cup was predetermined, as the circumstances that led to his triumph were, in his opinion, contentious.
"World Cup yen, it was a well-written script,” he said on the podcast. Speaking in Yoruba, Reminisce also claimed that the MLS was set to be rigged in the Argentine’s favour, but destiny had other plans.
Lionel Messi's eighth Ballon d'Or continues to be a source of controversy, with many believing Erling Haaland was more deserving and one of such people is Nigerian rapper Reminisce.
