Shallipopi: “Nigeria’s Most Wanted” Tour at The Wiltern

“It’s a clear road for Shallipopi.”

With the way Crown Uzama, better known as Shallipopi, hit the airwaves in 2023 and shot to fame with his break-out single, "Elon Musk", it is a clear road fo’ shizzle – right to the top of streaming platforms. This is no easy hustle in Nigeria's fiercely competitive music industry. Still, success is, in the words of Shallipopi himself, “the difference between being where you are and where you want to be.”

Word up: Shallipopi is on his way there. Cap-speed.

With Afro-Pluto bangers such as “Oscroh”, “Things on Things” and “Obapluto” is there no doubt: every single track is a fresh underground club anthem with its steez, street slang, rizzle rap flow, deep bass, catchy hooks, phat beats and drum-based production.

Upon dropping, his single, “Ex-Convict”, debuted at number 6 on the TurnTable Top 100, shortly followed by his debut album, “Planet Pluto”. His next 2023 album, “Presido la Pluto”, peaked at number 1 on the TurnTable Top 100 and Apple Music among the top 5 albums.

While Shallipopi makes “music for the vibe”, the lyrics are deeply rooted in everyday life, hustles, and struggles. His description is spot on for each and every track – a vibe!

This will all be going down at the hottest venue in LA, situated on the buzzing corner of Wilshire Boulevard and Western Avenue. The Wiltern has had its roof blown off a few times before, OG's such as Miley Cyrus, David Bowie, John Mayer, Ed Sheeran, and Madonna. The 5 levels, sporting between 1200 and 4000 seats, also include a mezzanine area with two rear bars, so no parching while being swooped up by the beats necessary.

Shallipopi will share the floor with Odumodublvck, a straight-up master at genre-blending Afrobeat, Drill, and Grime. His singles "Blood on the Dance Floor" and "Cast" claimed top positions in the TurnTable Top 100 and went viral. He is also part of the hip-hop collective Anti-World Gangstars.
Come check out why these guys climb the ladder straight to the top! Shallipopi and Odumodublvck’s pumping, roof-blowing, move-busting, dynamite tour, "Nigeria's Most Wanted", will turn the audience into steez Plutomanians!
