Fast-rising artist, Crown Uzama, also known as Shallipopi, has revealed how profitable the music industry is, comparing its earnings to those of ritualistic activities.
The “Elon Musk” singer shared this when he was asked how he manages to balance his income and expenses amid demanding family and friends during a recent appearance on the Zero Conditions podcast.
“How do you find a balance between giving to family members, saving for yourself and knowing when to draw the line?” the host asked.
Shallipopi responded by revealing that music returns are so abundant that they never let him run out of money, no matter how much he gives out.
He claimed that before this year, when his hit tracks became popular, he had no idea how profitable it was.

Me now, I no dey balance anything; if my family request, I dey give because I know that, the music will not stop. Even if I stop singing, the music I’ve dropped will continue giving me money”

The “Obapluto” singer claimed that the music of American rap star, Young Thug saved him when he was battling depression in the past.
Shallipopi revealed this in a recent interview with media personality, Chinasa Anukam on the podcast “Is This Seat Taken.”
The 23-year-old musician revealed how he had experienced depression in the past due to lack of affection and financial hardships.
He claimed that the music of the late rapper Dablixx Osha and Young Thug; whom he named his best artiste, got him through the difficult time.
He said;
“I listen to Young Thug, he is like my best artiste. Not only Young Thug, you know Dablixx Osha? The artiste that died like two years ago? I would say they saved me from depression.
Because there was a stage in my life when I was depressed, not because of love, o, no, because of love too. Everything was making me depressed. No love, no money… and, you know, you have to be in a certain situation to play a song to understand the lyrics of the song, so like they saved me from that depression stage of my life.”
Nigerian superstar singer Mayorkun has revealed the reasons for his long-standing decision to keep his mother’s identity a secret—popular actress Toyin Adewale.
The Betty Butter crooner claimed that he concealed his mother’s name for many years because he didn’t want to receive preferential treatment anywhere.
Mayorkun revealed this in an interview with actor and podcaster Taymesan and added that he never disclosed his mother’s fame as a movie actress to other students while at the university.
He recounted a time that his mother visited him in school with food and someone recognised her, so in order to avoid a scene, he quickly rushed to her.
He said;
“Growing up, my brother and I didn’t like the fact that our mom was a popular actress because we wanted freedom, but with her fame came fake attention and all.
I hated being treated differently, not because you like me but because I am Toyin Adewale’s son. Even in my university, people didn’t know she was my mother for four years. I was intentional about this.
My mum brought food to me at school once, and a girl saw her. I quickly ran to her to get what she came with just so no one else saw her.”
A Nigerian lady has informed others of the benefits of having a second wife and the reasons why it’s a good idea for men to contemplate doing so in a marriage.
Florence Chinyere Ogolo, a Facebook user, commented on a post about a man who was considering marrying a second wife soon after his first wife gave birth.
As she mentioned the decreasing harmony in the home, the woman said that women are frequently the reason for a man’s choice to take a new wife.
She went on to say that some men have an irrational preference for polygamy and that this preference is influenced by women’s changing physical appearance.
She wrote;
“Am not married yet But second wife are the best. For your husband to sought for a second wife that means u are a pain on his neck. Either feeling that u have arrived after giving him a son, or you no longer respect or give him peace. Something is really wrong about Or wat he ordered is no longer wat he got. And above all, there are men who love two wives so We cant erase that.”
The youths of Benin have protested in large numbers against the popular crossdresser, Bobrisky’s presence in Benin following his purported insult of the Oba of Benin.

Many youths took to the streets to show their opposition against the crossdresser’s planned return to the state for an event, as word spread about it.
They were seen carrying signs that expressed their dissatisfaction in such words as “Bobrisky is a bad influence; we don’t want him in our state”.

Speaking with fellow housemates Adekunle, Venita, Frodd, and Mercy, Seyi disclosed that the majority of businesses are unwilling to associate with Dorathy.
Seyi said that this could be linked to her love relationship with Brighto, with whom she had openly admitted to having “head.”

She boldly stopped his attempt at a hug and declared that she never spoke to her opposition after they wronged her.

Nigerian actorSam Ajibola, better known as Spiff in ‘The Johnsons,’ has filed a lawsuit against TikToker Gossipbobo and blogger Tunde Ednut for making a derogatory post about his wife, son, and former president Olusegun Obasanjo.
Gossipbobo, whose real name is Ifeanyi Aniekwe, posted a video featuring a photo of Spiff, his wife, and son with the former president alongside a suggestive caption that seemed to question the paternity of Spiff’s son.
“Obasanjo and his Secretary’s baby boy,” Ifeanyi wrote.
See below,
After sharing the post, blogger Tunde Ednut reposted it on his Instagram page, and it received a ton of derogatory comments from internet users.
This didn’t sit well with Sam and his family, and they have now initiated legal proceedings against Gossipbobo and Tunde Ednut.
Sam said he was really hurt by the narrative, as this is not the first time people are peddling defamatory allegations against his family.
He recounted how netizens claimed his wife was older than him at the time of their marriage, and accused her of being controlling and asking him to quit his role in ‘The Johnsons.’
He added that they have now found a scapegoat that would serve as a deterrent to others. He stated that a national security advisor, a Magistrate of the Supreme Court, and his wife’s legal advisor are on top of the matter.
He shared photos of the legal document where he demanded the sum of N10 million and a public apology from the TikToker.
He wrote,
“Trouble dey sleep, Yanga go wake am.
Wetin him dey find? Palava him dey find.
Cat dey sleep, rat go bite his tail.
Wetin him dey find? Na Palava him go get.. So contrary to many opinions as to why I haven’t come out to clear the air on the defamation of my wife’s character on this issue, you will all please bear with me as I needed some real good time to properly analyze all aspects of it and come up with a best solution to all of these bickering that has been happening since I announced my wife to the world. This harrassment has continued from my engagement news where they began with false allegations that my wife was older than I am and was controlling my decisions like leaving The johnsons, to blatant lies that she was called my class captain, and now for over a year these trolls have further bear false witness to the point where they question my wife’s unquestionable fidelity to me, and ultimately bullying my innocent son who they have planned to grow and meet these false allegations.
This is the very reason why a lot of famous and prestigious people crave for private lives. It is because lately, quite a number of young people on social media (as we have observed from the comments and all) are mostly dysfunctional and insensitive youths with the confidence in their false witness when they display their disrespect for others in societies where there is a huge lacuna of societal leadership.
This clearly as in this case of @gossipbobo , whom in sharing his misinformed opinion about our lives in public to the detriment of their mental health, relates to the almost impossible art of most Nigerians who can easily die from not “minding their own business”.
Honestly, I’m hurt and for the sake of being a proper boy from the streets of surulere, I know how to find justice there but for the sake of my emotional maturity, I have found more decent and honourable ways to handle this lingering issue, from the various powers I know in the Judicial/security sector. As we speak a national security advisor, a Magistrate of the supreme court and my wife’s legal advisor are on top of the matter. Thankfully, we have found a few scapegoats to use in warning others to stay away.”
Her post has sparked a barrage of comments on social media, with many sharing their thoughts about the advice and wondering if she was speaking from her personal experience.

Chigova, the former Zimbabwe Warriors goalminder, passed away in his sleep at his Johannesburg residence on November 15, 2023.

However, Uche dismissed the medical diagnosis, attributing it to external factors aimed at impeding Chigova’s career progression.

This unexpected announcement has shocked fans who are familiar with Snoop Dogg’s well-known affinity for consuming weed.
In the past, there were even claims that he had someone rolling 75-150 joints for him per day, although he later dismissed those claims.
However, earlier this year, Snoop Dogg revealed that he had moderated his weed intake after becoming a grandfather.
The birth of his grandson made him re-think his lifestyle choices and take new steps.
Speaking to DailyMail.com in March, Snoop Dogg expressed how being a grandfather has changed him and emphasized the importance of being mindful of his actions and surroundings.
This decision marks a significant shift for Snoop Dogg, who has been an influential figure in popularizing weed culture.
While fans may be taken aback by his choice, it reflects a personal transformation and a desire to put his family and well-being first.

Bewaji, the first wife of controversial singerPortable, has filed a petition against controversial disc jockey DJ Chicken for defamation of character and threats to life.
This comes after DJ Chicken, during a live session, claimed to have slept with her before she got married to Portable, and impregnated her. He also alleged that he was the one who deflowered her.
A video of him bragging about having sexual intercourse with her has gone viral on social media, sparking mixed reactions.
Watch below,
In reaction to this, Bewaji has filed a petition titled ‘Petition against Abiodun Ademola aka DJ Chicken for conspiracy, conduct likely to cause a breach of peace, character assassination, and threat to life’ to the Assistant Inspector General of Police.
She accused him of blackmailing her with claims of being in possession of a video of her sleeping with another man and sending her threatening messages.
The mother of two wrote,
“Dj chicken police invite you since all these days you didn’t show up, police send you the petition on WhatsApp, you didn’t respond, even you get mind to block his number, so now go and report yourself at the police station headquarters zone 2 to prove yourself all what you say about me.”
Portable also told DJ Chicken to confront him directly since he is the one he has issues with, instead of going after his wife.
Nigerian media personality,Daddy Freeze has reacted to the viral testimony video of the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye.
In the video, Pastor Adeboye recounted how he went on a trip to Colorado, US, and prayed to God to suspend the winter because he dislikes the cold.
He claimed that while he was there, the weather changed completely, and winter turned into summer. People who would normally wear winter jackets and heavy clothing to ward off the cold started wearing T-shirts.
The clip has stirred a barrage of comments online, with many expressing doubt about the story because it doesn’t seem logically possible.
Daddy Freeze has also gone online to share his two cents about the testimony. He asserted that he can’t serve a God who stops snow but watches his children suffer in poverty and can’t resurrect his servant, Osinachi, and deceased singer, Mohbad.
Addressing his followers, the controversial on-air personality stated that those serving Daddy Adeboye’s God are doing it at their own risk because he has proven to be “unprofitable.”
He wrote,
“I can NEVER serve a god that stops the snow but cannot resurect young people like MohBad, or his servants like Osinachi. A god who watches his tithe paying children in hunger and penury yet cannot stop the free falling Naira, despite his son’s declaration in
2016. A god whose angels were watching over polling booths, yet rigging went unabated. I think it has NOW come upon us to change the narrative of what our parents considered to be ‘god’. ~FRZ
It has been proven statistically that your GO’s god is unprofitable, serve such a god at your own risk!”
