“A little Tequila, a little cigarette, pray, tap in with the team and make sure everything is on cue,” he said when discussing his pre-performance habits.
Rema noted that performing live is more stressful than walking the runway, emphasizing that “performing has a lot to do with your breathwork and you have to keep the crowd going.”
On the music influencing him recently, he shared, “I have been listening to a lot of Sudanese cultural live music.”
He candidly admitted that smoking cigarettes remains his “biggest vice.”
