Nigeria's afrobeat superstar, Rema, has revealed that his first work experience was at a beach bar in Ghana.

According to the 24-year-old, he had to mature quickly following the demise of his father and brother.

"At some point, things got hard, and I had to man up. My past life has the same effect on my present life. I had to work hard because I lost my brother and I lost my dad, and I was the only one; things were left to me. I had to put things in place. So, I had to work hard; I did all sorts of things.

"I worked at a beach bar; that was my first job in Ghana," he stated during an interview on Capital Xtra.

Rema, whose real name is Divine Ikubor, is a Nigerian singer, rapper, and songwriter. He was born on May 1, 2000, in Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria.

Rema is known for his international hit song, "Calm Down," which featured pop star Selena Gomez on the remix.
