Nigerian singer, Crown Uzama, well known as Shallipopi, has recounted his financial struggles before fame.
Shallipopi revealed that he did domestic jobs to cater for himself and his family.
He thereby recalled performing for N5,000 at clubs in Benin to support his mother in paying bills.
Shallipopi disclosed this on his X (formally Twitter) handle after he was blasted by a netizen for claiming money is essential for manhood.
He replied, “I have been to the 36 states of Nigeria touring towns to eat, I nor know which part of Nigeria you come from, but u nor suppose dey talk to me about shame, buckle up this country nor dey laugh with anybody! Period!!!
“I don do bricklayer, painter, we don work for workshop, i don do POP, I don do plastering work, I don dey run commont house for night go club jokers for Benin go dey freestyle just to carry 5k reach house come give my mummy.”
