Nigerian Afrobeats star Rema has released his latest single, “OH NO,” adding another record to his growing catalogue as he continues his run of international releases.
The new track brings Rema together with two producers who have played important roles in his musical journey: Rvssian and London. Rema had teased the song ahead of its release, generating anticipation among fans after previewing the record during a recent appearance in New York.
“OH NO” marks another collaboration between Rema and Rvssian, following their earlier work on “Beamer (Bad Boys)”, one of the standout records from Rema’s early career. The two artists first connected on the 2020 track, which was produced by Rvssian.
Rema Teases Fans Before the Release
Before officially releasing “OH NO,” Rema gave fans an early preview of the record, sparking conversations online about the upcoming song.
The track was also previewed during a recent New York appearance, giving fans in attendance an opportunity to hear the unreleased record before its official arrival on streaming platforms. Reports and social-media posts surrounding the preview identified Rvssian as the producer of the upcoming track.
The anticipation surrounding the song reflects the level of attention that typically follows new music from Rema, particularly after his rapid rise from one of Nigeria’s breakout stars to one of Afrobeats’ most internationally recognised acts.
Rvssian and Rema Reunite
“OH NO” also marks another reunion between Rema and Jamaican producer Rvssian.
Rvssian previously produced Rema’s “Beamer (Bad Boys)”, released in 2020. The song became one of the early records that helped establish the distinctive sound Rema was developing at the beginning of his career.
Their latest collaboration comes several years after that first connection, giving the new single an added layer of significance for longtime Rema listeners.
Rvssian has also built a reputation for working across Afrobeats, dancehall, hip-hop and international pop, making the producer a natural collaborator for Rema’s genre-blending approach.
London Returns to the Production
Another familiar name attached to “OH NO” is London, one of Rema’s most important longtime collaborators.
London has been involved in several key moments throughout Rema’s career, including the singer’s breakthrough era and major records such as “Soundgasm” and “Calm Down.” He was also part of the production team behind Rema’s 2024 album HEIS.
The producer’s history with Rema stretches back to the early stages of the singer’s career, making their continued collaboration an important part of Rema’s evolving sound.
London was also involved in the production of “Bout U,” Rema’s 2025 single, further demonstrating the longstanding creative relationship between the pair.
Building on Rema’s Global Run
The release of “OH NO” comes as Rema continues to build on one of the most successful international runs by a Nigerian artist of his generation.
His global breakthrough was accelerated by “Calm Down,” which became a worldwide phenomenon following the release of its remix with Selena Gomez.
The song reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became one of the biggest Afrobeats crossover records ever released. Its official music video eventually surpassed one billion views on YouTube, adding another major achievement to Rema’s catalogue.
However, Rema’s catalogue extends well beyond “Calm Down.” Records including “Dumebi,” “Iron Man,” “Soundgasm,” “Woman,” “Bounce,” “Ozeba” and “Bout U” have helped establish his identity as one of Afrobeats’ most distinctive young artists.
A New Chapter After
HEIS
“OH NO” follows Rema’s 2024 album HEIS, a project that represented a more aggressive and experimental chapter in his artistic development.
The album included songs such as “Benin Boys,” “Ozeba,” “Hehehe” and “Red Potion,” while continuing Rema’s push toward a sound he has described through his Afrorave identity.
London was among the producers involved in HEIS, including on “Ozeba.”
Since then, Rema has continued releasing music and expanding his global presence, making each new single part of a broader progression rather than simply a standalone release.
What “OH NO” Means for Rema’s Next Move
With “OH NO,” Rema continues to demonstrate his willingness to work with producers from different musical backgrounds while maintaining the creative relationships that have been important to his career.
The combination of Rema, Rvssian and London brings together three artists with established connections to Afrobeats and global music, making the release one of the more notable Nigerian singles arriving in September 2026.
For Rema, the song provides another opportunity to keep his momentum going while reaching audiences that have followed his music from his early Jonzing World releases through his international breakthrough.
As listeners continue to discover “OH NO,” attention will also remain on what Rema has planned for the next stage of his career.
With a catalogue that has already produced billion-view videos, major international collaborations and global chart success, the Nigerian star enters another release cycle with considerable expectations.
Rema’s “OH NO,” produced by Rvssian and London, is out now on streaming platforms.
