Shallipopi’s ‘Laho’ Returns to Spotify After Sudden Takedown

By Milcah Tanimu

After much anticipation, Shallipopi released his first single of 2025, ‘Laho,’ on February 21. The song quickly went viral on TikTok following a teaser on his social media. However, just a day after its release, ‘Laho’ was unexpectedly removed from Spotify, leaving fans disappointed. The streaming platform, which paid Nigerian artists over ₦23 billion in 2023, is a key platform for the rapper’s music.

Hours later, ‘Laho’ was restored on Spotify, though Shallipopi has not disclosed the reason for its removal. Industry insiders suspect contractual issues with his former label, Dapper Music, played a role. The rapper previously accused the label of financial mismanagement, conflict of interest, and attempting to bind him to an indefinite contract.

‘Laho’ follows Shallipopi’s 2024 hit ‘Order’ featuring Olamide and is set to be a lead single from his upcoming album, rumored to feature American rapper Swae Lee. With six nominations at the 17th Headies, including the Next Rated Prize, 2025 is shaping up to be a big year for Shallipopi.
