Rema Spotted with Sade’s Promise Vinyl – A Nod to Classic Soul Ahead of New Release?
Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Rema was recently seen holding a vinyl copy of Sade’s iconic 1985 album Promise. This classic project, known for its smooth blend of jazz, soul, and R&B, opens with the timeless track “Is It a Crime,” a powerful ballad showcasing Sade Adu’s signature sultry vocals and emotive storytelling.
What makes this sighting even more intriguing is that Rema is reportedly set to release a new record that samples Sade’s work. This move reflects his deep appreciation for timeless music and suggests that he is incorporating elements of Sade’s artistry into his evolving sound. Given Rema’s genre-blending style—fusing Afrobeats with R&B and alternative influences – fans are eagerly speculating about how he will reinterpret Sade’s classic melodies.
Could this upcoming track mark a bold new direction for Rema? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – his ability to merge nostalgia with innovation continues to set him apart in the global music scene.
