Social media figure Daniel Regha has stirred controversy with his take on the debut album of Nigerian artist Shallipopi.
In a candid post on his Twitter profile, Regha expressed a strong opinion, suggesting that Shallipopi's first album, "Presido La Pluto," was crafted with the audience of "Yahoo boys" and weed enthusiasts in mind.
Regha didn't mince words, describing the lyrical content of the album as a "complete zero," while acknowledging the presence of compelling rhythms.
He specifically pointed out the lack of originality in the track "Iyo," claiming it featured a sample of Fabo Mo's "Itendo" by Shallipopi.
Despite his critical stance, Regha did find some merit in the song "Jungle" and concluded his Twitter critique with a mild "no offense," indicating that his remarks were a subjective viewpoint.
In his words: "Shallipopi's debut album (Presido La Pluto) is a 1/10; The album is made for yahoo boys & weed smokers. The beats were very catchy, but lyrically speaking the songs are a zero.
Furthermore, in the track "lyo," he kinda sampled "Itendo," a song by Fabomo who's another popular Edo artiste. The only manageable track off the album is Jungle. No offense."
