\n\tRema<\/a> released his Sade<\/a>-sampling single \u201cBaby (Is It a Crime)\u201d on Friday (Feb. 7). <\/p>\n

\n\tHe first teased the single back in November with a 1-minute, 21-second clip of him smoking while nonchalantly vibing to the track. \u201cBaby\/ Baby sunmoni\/ You know say you match my steeze\/ You know I\u2019m a G\/ Shawty I\u2019mma always keep it real\/ I no dey for too much whining\/ Dey for too much whining,\u201d the Nigerian hitmaker sings.<\/p>\n

\n\tSade\u2019s 1985 smooth jazz classic \u201cIs It a Crime\u201d is the first track on the band\u2019s sophomore album\u00a0Promise<\/em>. It reached No. 32 on\u00a0Adult Contemporary<\/a>\u00a0and No. 55 on\u00a0Hot R&B\/Hip-Hop Songs<\/a>. Rema was spotted carrying the Promise <\/em>vinyl out<\/a> of Amoeba Records in Hollywood, California earlier this week. <\/p>\n

\n\tRema (real name Divine Ikubor) released his sophomore album,\u00a0Heis,\u00a0<\/em>in July via Mavin Global, Jonzing World and Interscope Records. The 11-track set featured previously released singles \u201cBenin Boys\u201d featuring Shallipopi, \u201cHEHEHE\u201d and another collaboration with Odumodublvck (\u201cWar Machine\u201d). It reached No. 7 on\u00a0Billboard<\/em>\u2018s World Albums chart<\/a> and earned him his first Grammy nomination for best global music album.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s a great honor. Seeing the Grammys show me this love, show me this respect, it shows that I\u2019m doing something that is impacting way beyond my space, way beyond how I imagine it in a global scale. Being able to represent Afrobeats here, it\u2019s amazing,\u201d he told\u00a0Billboard<\/em>\u00a0on the\u00a02025 Grammys red carpet<\/a>.<\/p>\n
