Addressing the speculation, Rema said, “Davido and I have no issues; those are just rumours. I have so much respect for the OGs.”
The singer also explained that he previously tried to discourage his fans from participating in online fan wars involving other artistes.
According to Rema, such comparisons can become difficult to control when supporters of different artistes continue to fuel them online.
He said, “Fans are always the ones starting things. I used to caution my fans, but sometimes the other artiste enjoys the comparisons and doesn’t do the same, so I stopped.”
