Shallipopi Is Back With WAYWARD, a Three-Track EP Led by the Flute-Laced “.com”

Shallipopi’s WAYWARD brings together “.com,” “UP (TRANSOVANIA)” and “OGO,” with a flute melody giving “.com” its distinct texture.

Shallipopi has released WAYWARD, bringing together “.com,” “UP (TRANSOVANIA)” and “OGO.” Out on 23 October, the project runs to three tracks and around nine minutes.

On “.com,” a flute melody sits alongside his rhythmic delivery, giving the track a different texture. It is the detail that stands out here, adding another layer to the sound he has built around the Pluto persona. Listen to “.com.”

“UP (TRANSOVANIA)” and “OGO” complete the release. The short format keeps the focus on the songs, following the broader scope of his 2025 album AURACLE, which included “Laho,” “Like That” with Wizkid and “Him” with Gunna.

For the Benin City artist, WAYWARD follows a run that began with the breakout of “Elon Musk” in 2023. His debut EP, Planet Pluto, arrived that July, before the album Presido La Pluto later the same year. The latter included “Cast,” his collaboration with ODUMODUBLVCK.
