He Never Replied: TikTok Star Calls Out Rema Over ‘Calm Down’ Promotion

Viral creator who boosted hit song says Nigerian superstar ghosted him despite global success

A revealing conversation between German TikTok sensation Noel Robinson and influencer Peller has set social media ablaze, exposing an awkward truth behind one of Afrobeats’ biggest crossover hits. Robinson, whose viral dances helped propel Rema’s “Calm Down” to global stardom, claims the Nigerian artist never acknowledged his contribution – despite the track becoming a historic chart-topper.

“I was dancing to ‘Calm Down’, but Rema didn’t talk to me. He never did,” Robinson confessed during the viral exchange with Peller. “I texted him, and he didn’t reply.” The admission stunned Peller, who quickly assured the content creator that Rema would eventually reach out.

The hit single’s journey to stardom:
📅 Released February 2022 as part of Rema’s “Rave & Roses” album
💃 Gained traction through Robinson’s viral TikTok choreography
🌍 Topped charts in Belgium, Netherlands before Selena Gomez remix
🔥 Remix version dominated Billboard’s Afrobeats and Global charts

Industry observers note this highlights the growing tension between musical artists and digital creators who help amplify their work. While Robinson’s dances gave “Calm Down” crucial early momentum, the TikTok star appears to have received no formal recognition or compensation from Rema’s team.

As the conversation continues trending online, fans are divided – some demanding artists properly credit viral promoters, while others argue organic fan content shouldn’t require compensation. What remains undeniable is how Robinson’s moves helped transform an Afrobeats single into a worldwide phenomenon that’s still dominating playlists two years later.
