Nigerian music sensation Rema has captured headlines following a recent interaction with Barcelona football players during his visit to the United States.
The talented artist seized the chance to teach the Catalan stars the dance moves to his hit song, ‘Azaman’.
This lively encounter was widely shared across social media, with notable platforms like ESPN Africa and Rema News posting photos and videos of Rema with Barcelona players including Raphinha, Alejandro Balde, Robert Lewandowski, and Jules Koundé.
In related news, Nigerian music icons Olamide and Rema attended Barcelona’s 2-1 pre-season victory over Real Madrid in the United States.
The Nigerian artists were spotted in the VIP stand, with Rema engaging with fans while holding a Barcelona shirt bearing his name and the number 1.
Rema shared these moments on Instagram, leading the club to declare, “Baby Calm Down, Rema is a Culer.” Barcelona later reshared the images with the same caption.
The event ignited discussions about the increasing global influence of African culture, particularly Nigerian music.
Observers noted the potential for such collaborations to enhance brand visibility and promote cultural exchange.
