Nigerian singer and songwriter Shallipopi begins a new chapter with the release of the single “Afa Relax Oo,” featuring hitmaker Young Jonn. The track serves as the first offering from his body of work, officially tagged “Auracle.” Shallipopi, a Benin City native, rose from local acclaim to national prominence with his breakout hit “Elon Musk” and his debut album “Shakespopi.” His signature blend of street-hop and Benin City folk rhythms carved a distinct space in the Nigerian music scene.

The artist now links with Young Jonn, the vocalist and producer widely recognized as “The Wicked Producer” for crafting numerous chart-topping Afrobeats anthems before his own successful transition to a singing career. This collaboration on “Afa Relax Oo” signals a strategic move, pairing Shallipopi’s raw, narrative-driven style with Young Jonn’s polished, hit-friendly approach. Producer X provides the instrumental, constructing a laid-back yet percussive groove that supports the track’s central theme. The song’s title and repeated hook, “Relax o,” advocate for a carefree attitude amidst life’s hustle, a common thread in Shallipopi’s music that resonates with a young, ambitious audience.

The release underlines Shallipopi’s growing influence and his ability to merge local dialect and themes with sounds that command national airplay. Since 93, in partnership with Plutomania Records, presents this single as a precursor to the full “Auracle” project, aiming to solidify the artist’s position as a defining voice of his generation. The track’s release strategy bypasses traditional album rollouts, favoring a direct digital drop that matches the immediacy of the content. This method reflects current industry patterns where artists build anticipation through consistent single releases. Shallipopi’s journey from viral online snippets to major collaborations illustrates the modern path for Nigerian digital-age creators. “Afa Relax Oo” is available now on all streaming platforms.
