However, keen-eyed fans quickly picked up on a notable inclusion: Shallipopi ingeniously incorporated Bella Ciao from Money Heist into his track titled Hightension.
Since Shallipopi burst onto the Nigerian music scene, his rise to stardom has been swift. He’s effortlessly ascended into fame, igniting a trail of hits like Elon Musk, Obapluto, Cast, and Ex-Convict.
His chart-topping tracks have propelled him onto the international stage, gracing prestigious such as Afronation, Malta DLT, and Wireless Festival.

His new album Shakespopi has nine tracks and features from Zerrydl, Reehaa, and Tega Boi. Speculation online is that the second track Hightension sampled Bella Caio from the Netflix original series Money Heist.
