Nigerian singer, Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema, has spoken about how painful it is to discover real love for a young man in this current generation, saying people now equate love with financial gains in relationships.
According to the Calm Down crooner, relationship these days are built on what he described as financial gains because both parties have to define their own version of love and not what they see in others.
The singer said this as a guest on the latest episode of i-D Meets.
Rema said his favourite lyrics from his debut album ‘Rave & Roses’ is “money is not a source of income” because it came from his experience.
He said:“My favourite lyric in my album is ‘Love is not a source of income’. It came from my actual experience. A lot of relationships in our new generation is just really all about the gains.
“It’s painful that I can’t really define love. You’ve to live your own version. I have not lived my version. I’m waiting for it though.”
