He hails from Ilesa in Osun State, but from birth, he had lived in Lagos State until he left to obtain his bachelor&#8217;s degree from the University of North Carolina where he studied Biology and Chemistry.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><strong>Music Career of Ladipoe\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While a student at the University of North Carolina, Ladipoe developed an interest in music, leading him to co-found two music groups, Collectiv3, and Lyrically Equipped. Upon his return to Nigeria in 2014 after obtaining his degree in Biology and Chemistry, he decided to focus on music. As an independent artist, he released some rap songs but these songs didn&#8217;t give him relevance in the industry.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His breakthrough in the Nigerian music industry was signing a record deal with Mavins Records in 2017.\u00a0 He became the first rapper signed to the label since its rebranding in 2012 from Mo&#8217; Hits. The first single he released as a Mavin Records act was <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Man Already, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">which was produced by Altims. But what gave him visibility in the music industry was his feature on Show Dem Camp&#8217;s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feel Alright, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">which received massive airplay on radio stations across the country.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2019, two years after signing for Mavin Records, Ladipoe released <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Talk About Poe <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">T.A.P<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), his first official extended play project. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">T.A.P,<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which was a hip-hop\/rap EP, contained ten songs with support from both Nigerian and Ghanaian musical artistes such as Seyi Shay, Tems, Sir Dauda, and Efya, among others. The songs were received well by rap lovers across the country, such as <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Falling, in which<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Tems lent her voice, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One Step Close <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">featuring Funbi, and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mood.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Months later, Ladipoe dropped <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jaiye<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jaiye <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">further boosted Ladipoe&#8217;s relevance in the industry, increasing his fanbase in the process. In 2020, with the release of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Know You,<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which featured Simi, Ladipoe&#8217;s career peaked as the song went viral across several social media platforms such as TikTok and Instagram.
