Remas recent sold-out concert at the O2 Arena has sparked a debate over the use of demonic imagery in his artistic performances. Some concertgoers have expressed discomfort with Remas choice of clothing and stage props, which they believe carry Satanic undertones.

Remas entrance to the stage involved riding a horse while clothed in a black robe and adorned with a red mask. He later made a second entrance riding a Bat with red eyes. These choices, along with the overall design of the concert stage, have led some to conclude that Rema is promoting Satanism in his art.

Rema has previously dismissed claims of Satanism, stating that he is a Christian. However, his recent performance has reignited these accusations.

In a statement posted to his social media account, Rema explained that his choice of imagery was inspired by Edo culture. He wrote that the horse he rode in on is synonymous with Edo art and that the mask is fashioned after that of Queen Idia, a great Edo monarch.

Remas explanation has not satisfied all critics, who continue to express concern about the use of demonic imagery in his performances. However, other fans have defended Remas artistic freedom, arguing that he is simply using his platform to explore his cultural heritage.

The debate over Remas use of demonic imagery is likely to continue. It is a complex issue that raises questions about the relationship between art, culture, and religion. (The Guardian)
