Bout U isn’t just another love song. It’s Rema stepping into his grown, emotionally aware bag – and doing it in style. Perfect for quiet moments, soft playlists, or thinking too much at 2 a.m. Either way, it hits.

He does what he does best – cooking up a beat that’s rich, textured, and dripping with feeling as he also embraces his singing nature now.
Together, the trio delivers a soulful masterclass in Afro-fusion: part groove, part heartbreak, all real. It’s the kind of track that makes you think about that one text you never replied to… or the one you wish you didn’t send.
