Nigerian media figure Shade Ladipo has expressed her views on the ongoing conflict between singer Spyro and music executive Pauloo. On January 16, 2035, Ladipo defended Spyro through her Instagram stories, asserting that he had not spoken any falsehoods regarding the music industry.
She wrote, “PaulO na my Oga but Spyro did not tell a single lie. There are teeeww many jokers in this Nigerian Music scene who believe because they have existed in that ecosystem and have some form of influence all of a sudden understand talent or record label management. My Egbons No be by ‘I don dey industry for 50 years.”She advised Pauloo and other music executives to take their wins as well as their losses.
“Only Don Jazzy/Mavin has proven without reasonable doubt that he understands Talent & Record Label Management. My other Egbons. Proudly take your Ls without feeling attacked. Someone sharing an account of their story doesn’t mean they are trying to attack you. If it happened then it happened. You win some You lose some Paulo be proud of the investments you did make that yielded returns!”
This statement follows Spyro’s recent interview on the Echoo Room, where he disclosed that he had not achieved significant progress in his career during his two years with Pauloo’s label. He also mentioned that he had to secure a loan to promote his single ‘Funke,’ which garnered interest from Davido, who recorded a remix with Mayorkun.
In response, Pauloo posted a series of messages on social media, questioning Spyro’s narrative and expressing skepticism regarding the allegations, while sharing social media evidence to counter his claims. Nevertheless, Spyro maintained his position, asserting that he was treated poorly at the label.
He said in part, “I didn’t lie, Oga Paulo. Your receipts even validate my point. I vividly recall being stranded after One Africa at Wembley because my hotel booking was only for one day. I spent hours in the cold before someone arranged an Airbnb for me. I went days without food until a kind lady helped me out.”
The dispute between the two has since ignited discussions on social media, eliciting various reactions and comments.
