Bisina SomtoRema’s “Ravage Uprising” show at London’s iconic 02 Arena on November 14, 2023, marked a transformative chapter in the Afrobeats superstar’s career.
The sold-out event, attended by a crowd of 20,000 fans, showcased Rema’s evolution as an artist and entertainer. The night commenced with an amazing entrance as Rema, donned in a mask and black ensemble, mounted a stationary horse, setting the stage for an outstanding performance of his latest hit, “DND.”
Transitioning seamlessly, he delivered a rendition of “Iron Man,” accompanied by an Indian dance choreography on either side.
Expressing gratitude and reflection, Rema paid homage to Burna Boy, acknowledging the pivotal role Burna played in his journey.

In a pre-show tribute, Rema thanked Burna Boy for providing him with a platform two years ago, expressing a wish for Burna to be present to share in the triumph.
The show unfolded in three distinct phases, each unveiling a new facet of Rema’s artistry. From performing atop a giant stationary bat to transforming the stage into a Rema party, the Jonzing World star mesmerized the audience with an electrifying set.
His repertoire included chart-toppers like “Dirty,” “Ginger Me,” “Addicted,” “Why,” “Dimension,” “Soundgasm,” “Fame,” “HOV,” “Trouble Maker,” “Lady,” “Don’t Leave,” “Dumebi,” “Bounce,” and “Charm.”
The most talked about momemt occurred when Rema’s Mavin Records labelmates—Ayra Starr, Crayon, and Magixx—joined him on stage for a performance of “Won Da Mo.” This gesture resonated deeply with Nigerian fans, offering a heartwarming glimpse into the Mavin Records family dynamic.
The YouTube livestream, attracting over 38,000 viewers during this segment, testified to the global anticipation and appreciation for the show.
Rema closed the night with a performance of his hit song “Calm Down.” The “Ravage Uprising” spectacle at the 02 Arena not only elevated Rema’s status as a global musical force but also added another vibrant chapter to the rich tapestry of Afrobeats.
