Following his outing at the recent 67th Grammys, Rema has announced the release date of his new single.

The singer made this announcement on his Instagram account where he revealed the song titled 'Baby (Is It A Crime') will be released on Friday 7th, February 2025.

The song samples the track 'Is It A Crime' from the iconic 'Promise' album by British band Sade.

The song will be Rema's first release of 2025 which comes after his appearance at the 2025 Grammys where he was nominated for the Best Global Album.

The category was won by American musician Matt B & the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra for his album 'Alkebulan II'.

Rema's 'Baby (Is It A Crime)' is his first release since he put out his sophomore album 'HEIS' in 2024.

The award-winning star described the up-tempo party starting project as a tribute to the rich history of Nigerian music and a desire to remind the industry of the need to look inward.

The album which boasts of the hit singles 'Azaman' and 'Ozeba' enjoyed commercial success and was ranked among the best albums of 2024.

Rema also recently announced dates for his upcoming European tour including the 20K Accor Arena in France.

With his next single Rema will be aiming to continue his commercial run which has earned him several accolades including scoring the first Afrobeats' song to reach 1 billion Spotify streams and 1 billion YouTube views.
