Afrobeat star Rema recently shared his calm and thoughtful reaction to receiving his first major paycheck of N50 million. Speaking on the Breakfast Club, Rema reflected on how he chose to handle the significant milestone with composure, avoiding getting swept up in excitement. Instead, he focused on giving back to those who matter most to him.

Rema explained that he used the money to express gratitude to his loved ones, particularly his mother, and his community. He bought a car for his mother and donated musical instruments to his church, underscoring his commitment to showing appreciation and supporting others.

“When I made my first 50 million, I didn’t get freaked out. I got my mum a car and bought instruments for the church,” Rema shared.
