Journey
Pappisman (born Wilson Timinindu Freeborn) is a Nigerian hip-hop artist, rapper, singer, songwriter, and acclaimed music producer, widely recognized as the “King of Trap” in Nigeria. Credited with pioneering and popularizing Trap music in Nigeria and West Africa, he blends heavy 808s, intricate hi-hats, and atmospheric synths with authentic Nigerian storytelling.
From a young age, Pappisman stood out, driven by leadership and a desire to break from the Afrobeats-dominated scene in his community. He has released influential projects, including "Trap Off 2" (EP) with Lil Jagz and his own "King of Trap" mixtape, producing half the tracks himself to showcase his production skills.
His song “Police Brutality” addresses oppression, harassment, and societal injustice, reflecting his commitment to socially conscious music. Among his most memorable career moments are hosting club tours with his label, electrifying audiences, and commanding stages across Nigeria.
Beyond music, Pappisman is an entrepreneur and producer, constantly refining his craft and sound engineering expertise. His ambitions include landing a Billboard No. 1 song and winning a Grammy, solidifying his mission to project the African Trap sound to global audiences.
