Rema – RAVAGE The EP
Known as one of the most renowned individuals in the Afrobeat’s industry, the legendary superstar Rema has finally released his eagerly anticipated RAVAGE EP.
The project follows his recent song with Ice Spice, “Pretty Girl”
There are five amazing tracks on the EP, each with a distinct resonance of its own. Trouble Maker, DND, Smooth Criminal, Don’t Leave, and Red Potion are the names that adorn this EP. Every one of these songs has a unique story and musical journey that eloquently illustrates Rema’s skill.

Three outstanding producers—London, P. Prime, and Blaise Beatz—carefully created and brought to life the soundscape of Rema’s RAVAGE EP. Their combined creativity has produced a captivating soundtrack that acts as a backdrop for Rema’s seductive voice.
Ravage marks the climactic culmination of the Rave & Roses universe, a concept that Rema has masterfully woven into his musical tapestry. While Rema has always been an artist unafraid to indulge in self-gratification, this project showcases a discernible evolution in his artistic trajectory, thanks in no small part to the formidable production contributions from London, P. Prime, and Blaise Beatz. As he delves into the thematic elements that adorned Rave & Roses album, there’s an evident shift in his persona as he embraces the persona of the anti-hero, stepping away from the conventional hero’s role.
In the P. Prime-produced track DND, Rema boldly declares his detachment from societal expectations, asserting, “Ṣe I wan good ṣe I wan bad? Ṣe I wan real ṣe I wan fake? Me I no do again.” This statement encapsulates the essence of the RAVAGE EP, which is marked by a fearless embrace of individuality and a refusal to conform to external judgments and opinions.

Ravage follows Rema’s 2022 full-length debut Rave & Roses. The Nigerian artist said of the new release in a statement: “On this project, I connect with my inner flame, my inner rage. It’s like an outburst on the inside of me that I’ve held in for too long. It’s not fueled with negativity, rather it’s fueled with drive, passion, and destiny. What people will hear on this project is a little exhale from me, only that it comes with fire.”
Earlier this month, Rema released a song with Ice Spice, “Pretty Girl,” which the pair performed for the first time during Saturday Night Live’s Season 49 premiere on October 14. He also won the first-ever Afrobeats award at the 2023 MTV VMAs this year along with Selena Gomez for their 2022 remix of his song “Calm Down.”
