Rapper Divine Ikubor aka Rema has called out DJ Neptune for releasing a song they recorded together without his approval.
The young rapper vented on Twitter on Friday.
According to Rema, he had pleaded with his management when he was tagged before the song dropped, but the track was still released without his knowledge.
“With all due respect chief! Dropped my old record without due process?!! I’m not happy at all. @deejayneptune. Don’t violate the codes, can’t drop my song without my notice, can’t even remember the last time we spoke big bro, I pleaded with my manager behind the scenes when y’all tagged me before it dropped, y’all still went ahead! c’mon nau!
“This GAME! Don’t ride on my humility, there are some things I can’t be talked out of and number 1 is my ART, if you’re not ok with it then if it’s war it’s WAR. Don J go vex for me, Baba forgive me but this no join at all,” he wrote.
Speaking further, Rema asked the disc jockey to take down the song, adding he kept quiet because he was trying to protect some people’s interests and feed his family.
“Lastly, TAKE MY SHIT DOWN! I’m finna make new enemies after this, but God big pass INDUSTRY. This GAME has slapped me too many times on the cheek, I dey quiet because I get people interest to protect and a family to feed. Abeg I sabi mind my business but make nobody vex me o,” he concluded.
The rapper’s self-titled EP Rema peaked number one on Apple Music Nigeria.

In September 2020, Rema tweeted accusations against the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) over the death of his father who was a Justice.
