Nigerian singer and songwriter Crown Uzama, also known as Shallipopi, has declared that all Afrobeat musicians are stars, eliciting comments from social media users.
The Benin-born artist made this statement during an interview at the Wireless Festival in London. In a viral video, the interviewer forced Shallipopi to choose the best Afrobeat performer among Nigerian musicians Burna Boy, Asake, Rema, and Wizkid.
In recent days, fans and music lovers have concluded that Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Davido are the top three National Afrobeat stars.
On the contrary, Shallipopi stated that in Nigeria, everyone is a star. He expressed that there is no hierarchy among Afrobeat musicians in the country.
However, when pressed by the interviewer to name his favorite Afrobeat star, Shallipopi named himself as the top Afrobeat artist in Nigeria.
The video has elicited astonishing reactions from social media users, who praised Shallipopi for his clever response.
