According to him, the album delivered more disappointment than innovation.
He wrote:
“Shallipopi can’t be considered a real artiste, just someone who has access to a studio… His latest album ‘Auracle’ is a painful listen with no lyrical evolvement, substance, or creativity shown.”
He added that while some beats sounded good at first, each track “gets progressively worse” as the album continues.
Regha insisted the project would have been stronger if only four or five songs were released as an EP.
Despite the heavy criticism, he admitted that Pull Up, the collaboration with British-Gambian rapper Pa Salieu, stood out.
He stated
“One song ‘Pull Up’ has a good flow (lyrics aside), with Pa Salieu bringing the track to life.”
At the end of the review, Regha rated the album 1/10, saying “no one’s IQ will improve by such an album.”
The singer did not hold back. Shortly after Regha’s comments gained attention, Shallipopi fired off a sharp response.
His message read:
“SYBAU You know nothing about music.”
