Artist born in a city called Abeokuta, just outside of Lagos, Nigeria, however his family moved to Lagos before he was a year old, where he spent the first part of his life. So practically speaking, he is from Lagos, Nigeria. He does have quite vivid memories of Nigeria.

​

His name means "make joy" in Yoruba, a language native to Nigeria. (There isn't a "Nigerian" language. The national language is English, with many other ethnic languages.) "Shopé" is a truncated and phonetically spelled version of my full first name, which is Mosopeoluwa.
