Is Asake on Rema's new album? Here is what we know

Following rumours and speculations, here is what we know on if Asake will be featured on Rema's new album scheduled for November 2026.

Speculations have continued to grow around the possibility of two unlikely artists, Rema and Asake collaborating on a song ahead of the release of Rema's upcoming album, EMB, scheduled to arrive on November 6, 2026.

The conversation started after a tracklist reportedly surfaced online, suggesting that Asake could feature on a song titled “Juju” on the highly anticipated project.

While neither Rema nor Asake has officially confirmed the collaboration, the rumoured feature has generated excitement among fans, with many eager to see what a record involving two of Afrobeats' biggest stars would sound like.

So, is Asake really on Rema's new album? Here's what we know so far.

What sparked the Asake feature rumours?

The speculation began following the circulation of a purported EMB tracklist online, which reportedly listed Asake as a featured artiste on a song titled “Juju”.

However, the authenticity of the tracklist has not been independently established, and Rema's camp has yet to officially confirm the featured artistes on the album.

Until an official tracklist or announcement is released, Asake's appearance on “Juju” remains speculation.

What have Rema and Asake released in 2026?

Interestingly, both artistes have had an eventful 2026, making the possibility of a collaboration particularly exciting.

Rema has continued to expand his musical catalogue with releases including “TEA” and “OH NO”, while also making international appearances on records involving Don Toliver, Skillibeng, LISA and Anitta.

His upcoming album, EMB, will follow his critically acclaimed 2024 project HEIS and is expected to introduce another phase of his musical evolution.

Asake, on the other hand, released his fourth studio album, M$NEY, on May 1, 2026. The project featured collaborations with international acts including Tiakola, DJ Snake and Kabza De Small.

The singer has also maintained his presence through guest appearances on projects by other Nigerian artistes, further demonstrating his willingness to explore different musical directions.

Why would a Rema and Asake collaboration be significant?

A collaboration between Rema and Asake would bring together two artistes who have played significant roles in shaping the contemporary Afrobeats sound.

Although they operate within the same genre, their musical identities are quite different. Rema has developed a sound that blends Afrobeats with pop, trap and experimental influences, while Asake has become widely recognised for his Fuji-inspired melodies, street-pop influence, energetic delivery and distinctive vocal arrangements.

It would also mark another notable collaboration between two leading Nigerian artistes at a time when Afrobeats continues to expand its international reach.

When is Rema releasing EMB?

Rema's EMB is scheduled for release on November 6, 2026. The album is expected to be another major release in his career, following the success and international recognition of HEIS.

For now, fans will have to wait for Rema to unveil the official tracklist to find out whether Asake really appears on it or if a song titled “Juju” actually exists.

Until then, the possibility of the two stars joining forces remains one of the talking points surrounding the upcoming album.
