Nandi Madida: You know something I’ve found very interesting and quite surprising is that you’re not part of a major label. So you haven’t been signed to any major label and you’ve been killing it in the game, is that correct?

Shallipopi: I own my own label.

Nandi Madida: That’s insane. So as a young’n – you’re [born in] 2000, in South Africa we say ‘Ama 2000’ – so you’re just killing the game with no major label? That’s why I was saying you’re disrupting the game because I can’t think of many artists at the top of my head who is doing it at your level just by having their own label.

Shallipopi: It’s true… Well, I think my songs are made for the new generation.

Nandi Madida: Is there anything that you’ve learned just dropping this EP? What do you want people to know about this project? What would you like to leave them learning with this project?

Shallipopi: Hmm, learning? I would say no, just welcome to Pluto. This is my time. Welcome to Pluto, just know that this is my time. It’s not anything educative, it’s pure vibe.
