Rising Nigerian artist Crown Uzama, popularly known as Shallipopi, recently expressed deep appreciation for rapper Zlatan Ibile’s significant role in boosting his music career. In a tribute shared on his Instagram story, Shallipopi highlighted that Zlatan gave his career “life” without expecting any financial compensation.
The TikTok sensation, aged 23, rose to prominence after his song ‘Elon Musk’ went viral. Zlatan Ibile and Fireboy DML later collaborated with him on a remix, further solidifying his stardom in the music industry.
In another development, Shallipopi shared a screenshot of an email he received from an individual posing as the late Mohbad, a former Marlian Music artist who was reported deceased on September 12. The email, sent a few days after the incident, contained a message claiming to be from Mohbad, urging Shallipopi to remain calm.
This revelation has sparked reactions on social media, with some users expressing concern about scammers exploiting the situation and questioning the ethics of impersonating a deceased individual for fraudulent purposes.
The situation has drawn attention to the prevalence of scams and unethical practices in online spaces, especially when involving the names of deceased individuals.
