Reports Claim Rema Declined Wizkid Collaboration After DJ Tunez Approached Him for a Verse — Fans Debate Authenticity

Social media was set abuzz on Tuesday following unverified reports alleging that Nigerian superstar Rema turned down a potential collaboration with Wizkid because the request was delivered through Wizkid’s official DJ, DJ Tunez, rather than the singer himself.

According to circulating claims, Wizkid allegedly sent DJ Tunez to appeal to Rema for a verse, a move some sources say the younger artiste considered inappropriate or disrespectful. The report has not been confirmed by any camp involved, but it has already sparked heated discussions among fans of both artistes.

Supporters of Rema argue that every collaboration should be approached professionally and directly, especially between two globally recognized stars. Others insist the claims may be exaggerated or entirely false, noting that Wizkid and Rema have publicly shown mutual respect in the past.

Music analysts caution that the story appears speculative, as neither Mavin/Jonzing World, nor Wizkid’s team, nor DJ Tunez have issued any official clarification.

Despite the uncertainty, the rumour has added fuel to the ongoing debates about hierarchy, respect, and stylistic differences between top Afrobeats artistes.

Industry observers say only an official statement from either artiste can settle the matter, but for now, the controversy continues to trend across Nigerian social platforms.
