The announcement was accompanied by striking promotional artwork featuring the Calm Down hitmaker alongside the bold tagline, “From Nigeria to the World,” emphasizing his evolution into one of today’s most influential global music voices.

Rema’s addition to this year’s lineup is being hailed as a powerful homecoming moment. Known for his genre-blending sound which he famously branded Afrorave the star is expected to deliver an electrifying set packed with international chart-toppers and fan favorites.
