- Snicky Armani has taken to social media with a beat theft allegation against colleague Shallipopi and his music producer.
- Armani accused the Shallipopi’s producer of stealing his beat for his hit song ‘Ex-convict’
- The aggrieved singer, Armani posted his version of the same beat on social media.
Buzzing Nigerian Rapper, Crown Uzama aka Shallipopi has found himself in the middle of a beat theft allegation after he was recently called out by colleague, Snicky Armani.
Known for his unique blend of pop, hip-hop, and electronic music, Shallipopi has been a force to reckon with since his breakout single “Elon Musk” topped the charts.
He relased another banger titled ‘Ex-convict”, produced by the talented Spritual Stringz. The inspiration behind Ex Convict stems from Shallipopi’s personal experience and encounter with the EFCC, resulting in his arrest.
In a recent development, Singer Snicky made public his WhatsApp conversation with Shallipopi’s producer, Spiritual Stingz.
Snicky, in the chats, had clearly warned Spiritual Stingz in advance against using his beat. However, despite the explicit warning, the producer went ahead and used Snicky’s beat for Shallipopi’s track “Ex-convict.”
As a result, Snicky expressed his frustration and anger through a series of rants after Spiritual Stingz ignored his cautionary message.
Snicky posted an audio of the beat he used for his own song, and upon close examination, it became evident that the beat used in both songs is identical. This suggests that the same beat was used in both Snicky’s track and Shallipopi’s “Ex-convict”
