Fans are divided over the track’s sound. Some criticized Rema for emulating Playboi Carti. They noted, “Bro thinks he’s Carti, I’m only 7 secs into the snippet and it already sounds so awful because of that mumu Carti sound.” Others echoed this sentiment. They pointed out Rema’s apparent attempt to mimic foreign artists. However, not all feedback was negative. Fans who took to the style of music praised the snippet, likening it to Rema’s early freestyle era. @EL_GEORGE boldly claimed, “This don take the industry.” The unreleased Rema snippet has captivated critics and fans alike.

This isn’t the first time Rema’s new direction has sparked debate. A 2024 Reddit thread on r/CartiCulture highlighted his adoption of Carti’s Opium aesthetic. This was a shift from his Afrobeats roots showcased in hits like “Ozeba” and “HEIS.” Rolling Stone’s 2024 review of HEIS described Rema’s sound as a “rave-like” departure. It blended chaotic drums and eerie synths, a far cry from his earlier poppy Afrobeats style. His recent performance at Rolling Stone’s Future of Music showcase in March 2025 further cemented his experimental streak. Fans chanted his tagline at a “Rema party” in Austin.
As Rema continues to push boundaries, the question remains: Is this new sound a bold evolution or a misstep? Fans are eagerly awaiting a full release of the unreleased Rema snippet to decide for themselves.
