Just a few days back, Rema had spoken out on being a member of the Illuminati, which is one of the world’s most powerful secret societies, that specially houses artists across the globe.
Addressing the allegations which stemmed from his signature bat emojis, he denied being a member of any secret cult, as the singer urged his oldest fans to educate the new ones about his background and heritage.
Further defending himself, the Mavins singer added that he works too hard to create art for people to give the glory to diabolical shit. Rema surprised many as he declared love for God, crowning him the King.
