Shallipopi confirms split from record label, Dapper Music

By Oluwapelumi Oluwayemi

Nigerian music star Shallipopi has officially parted ways with Dapper Music, the record label that helped catapult him to stardom in 2023.

Although rumors of a split circulated for some time, recent updates on the artiste’s social media seem to confirm the separation.

Shallipopi has removed Dapper Music’s name from his bio and has unfollowed the label’s boss, signaling a likely end to their collaboration.

The breakup comes on the heels of Shallipopi launching his own label, Plutomania Records, earlier this year.

Plutomania has already signed two new artists, Zerry DL and Tega Boi, positioning itself as an emerging force in the Nigerian music industry.

This split follows a recent trend, as it marks the second high-profile departure from Dapper Music in just a few months. In August, another popular artiste, Seyi Vibez, also left the label.
