Rema's 'E-Mortal Boy' EP: The Excitement Behind the Reported Wizkid Collaboration

Nigerian music fans have something exciting to look forward to as Afrobeats sensation Rema prepares to release a new extended play (EP) titled E-Mortal Boy (EMB). The announcement has generated conversations among music lovers, particularly because of reports linking another Nigerian music superstar, Wizkid, to the upcoming project. With two successful artistes potentially coming together, expectations are already growing.

What Rema Announced

On November 11, 2026, Rema announced his forthcoming seven-track EP, E-Mortal Boy, through a post on Instagram. The project is scheduled for release on November 20, 2026, and will mark his first EP since Ravage, which was released in 2023.

According to entertainment reports, the upcoming project will include seven songs. Two of them, 'Oh No' and 'TEA', have already been released, giving listeners an idea of what to expect from the new collection.

The announcement became even more interesting when a tracklist began circulating online, reportedly listing Wizkid as a featured artiste on a song titled 'Feel Alright'. Other names mentioned in the circulating list include BNYX, London and Kah-Lo. However, the complete list of featured artistes has not yet been officially confirmed by Rema, so fans will have to wait for further details.

Why the Wizkid Collaboration Matters

The reported collaboration between Rema and Wizkid is one of the biggest talking points surrounding the announcement.

Both artistes have made significant contributions to the growth of Nigerian music and Afrobeats internationally. Wizkid has spent years building an impressive career, working with international musicians and introducing African sounds to different audiences. Rema, on the other hand, has become one of the leading faces of the younger generation of Afrobeats artistes.

His international breakthrough with 'Calm Down', particularly its remix featuring Selena Gomez, introduced his music to an even wider audience.

A collaboration between these two stars would therefore be more than just another song. It would bring together different musical experiences, styles and generations. It could also attract listeners from both artistes' fan bases and introduce their music to new audiences.

How Fans Are Reacting Online

Since the announcement, the possibility of hearing Rema and Wizkid on the same project has become a major subject of discussion among Afrobeats followers.

Social media has become an important place for music lovers to share their excitement, discuss upcoming releases and express their expectations. The reported Wizkid feature has given fans another reason to look forward to November 20.

Some listeners are particularly curious about how the two artistes will combine their different musical styles. Others are interested in the other reported collaborations and what the remaining songs will sound like.

However, beyond the excitement, fans are also waiting for the official tracklist and the release itself before making final judgments about the project.

What to Expect

With E-Mortal Boy, Rema appears ready to open another chapter in his musical journey. The project follows his 2024 album, HEIS, which received international recognition and earned a nomination at the 2025 Grammy Awards.

Whether the reported Wizkid collaboration turns out to be exactly what fans are expecting or not, the announcement has already attracted considerable attention.

One thing is certain: November 20 is an important date for Rema's fans and Afrobeats lovers. Until the EP arrives, listeners will have to keep their expectations high and wait to discover what the singer has prepared.
