In his candid revelation, Shallipopi highlighted the unique aspect of music income—its perpetual nature. Even if an artist were to cease creating new music, the songs already released could continue generating income indefinitely.
The artist expressed confidence in the enduring financial returns of his work, asserting, “There is too much money in music that you can never understand at all. Music money is like a ritual. Even if you are an artist that just came out one month, provided your song is just big, don’t worry. So for me now, I no dey balance anything because I know that music will not stop; even if I stop singing, the songs that I have dropped will continue to give me money.”
Shallipopi gained widespread recognition after the release of his debut single titled ‘Elon Musk,’ a track that catapulted him into the limelight and solidified his presence in the Nigerian music scene. As he continues to navigate the industry, Shallipopi’s insights offer a glimpse into the enigmatic world of music wealth and the enduring financial rewards it bestows upon those who find success in the rhythm and melody of their craft.
