Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Rema is turning up the excitement once again, this time with a brand-new single titled KELEBU, set for release this Friday. But that’s not all. In a surprise announcement that’s already setting social media on fire, Rema revealed a $10,000 dance challenge tied to the song, encouraging fans worldwide to bring their best moves to the table.
The artiste, known for his genre-blending style and viral hits like Calm Down and Charm, took to his platforms to share the news, inviting dancers, content creators, and fans to interpret the KELEBU sound with original choreography. The winner of the challenge will walk away with a whopping $10,000 cash prize, making this one of the biggest fan contests in Afrobeats right now.
Though details of the track remain under wraps, teasers suggest KELEBU will feature high-energy rhythms and the signature bounce Rema is known for, likely designed to spark dance trends across TikTok, Instagram, and beyond.
This move not only highlights Rema’s savvy engagement with the digital generation but also reinforces his role as a trendsetter in the global Afrobeats movement. With fans already hyping up the release and dance challenge across platforms, KELEBU is on track to become the next viral anthem.
The official song drops this Friday, with the dance contest expected to launch shortly after.
