Dumebi

Song by Rema

3 mins • 2019

Rema dropped “Dumebi” in 2019 and changed his life overnight. The track from his self-titled debut EP became the one everyone couldn’t stop playing, racking up over 85 million views and catching the attention of Davido, Wizkid, and even Barack Obama. Rema went from talented newcomer to unavoidable in one song.

The song is about unrequited love, watching the girl you want be with someone else while you are stuck on the sidelines. Maybe that is why it hit so hard; we have all been there.
