Real Reason Rema Cancelled All Performances for the Year 2023
In an official statement posted on his social media platforms, Nigerian singer Rema disclosed that he won’t be gracing the stage for performances in December 2023. The artist shared this disappointing news with his fans through an Instagram story on Wednesday, November 29, 2023.
Expressing regret, Rema cited health reasons as the driving force behind this unexpected decision. In his post, he conveyed that he had been attempting to manage his health initially, making efforts to perform for his fans. However, the toll of his demanding workload, coupled with his initial neglect of health concerns, has compelled him to take a break.
The singer’s Instagram story read, “Breaks my heart to say that I won’t be performing anywhere this December. Been years of touring, I’ve ignored my health, and I need time to recuperate. 2024, we go again. Love.”
This revelation has undoubtedly disappointed fans who were looking forward to witnessing Rema’s performances in December. The artist’s acknowledgement of the necessity to prioritize his health reflects a commitment to long-term well-being and an understanding of the toll continuous touring can take.
Rema’s decision comes amid his notable achievements, including setting a new record for African music on Spotify’s end-of-the-year charts for 2023. While fans may be disheartened by the news, many are likely to appreciate the artist’s honesty and dedication to maintaining his health for future endeavours.
