Nigerian-Canadian Rapper Shope Releases 'Sorry' Single

Nov 13 2019

Nigerian-Canadian singer/rapper Shope, based in Toronto, has released his new single 'Sorry'. The track boldly dives headfirst into themes of forgiveness and reconciliation. "The song came from a very deep and personal place", explains Shope. "Sometimes the pain you cause can be so deep, only the long road is left. You can’t fast track healing, so you can’t get tired of saying sorry."


With over 1 Million streams on Spotify and Apple Music, Shopé is definitely one of Toronto’s “one-to-watch” up and coming artists. He was originally born and raised in Nigeria, but with his family, later immigrated to Toronto at the age of 11. No stranger to the classic immigrant struggle, Shopé’s personal and musical narratives weave a tale of poverty, ambition, determination, love, and faith.

Blending Afropop, Hip Hop and R&B, his music has been described as honest, and vulnerable, yet bold and confident. That is perhaps why his work has resonated with so many. Shopé’s collaborations include GRAMMY-winning producers, Courtney Orlando and Alex Medina, with his performance credits spanning premiere festivals like CMW (Toronto), SXSW (Austin), A3C (Atlanta), showcasing alongside artists like; Tory Lanez, Crooked I, Lecrae, and Andy Mineo, just to name a few. Additionally, his robust touring schedule has taken him across Canada, the United States, Europe and Africa.

Thanks to a slew of well-received EPs singles, and his latest project, “XXY”, Shopé has also been featured in numerous publications including, 6ixbuzzTV, Rapzilla.com, Noisetrade.com, Bella Naija and Urbanology Magazine.
