Shapur is a rapper from Iran. He is a member of the music group Moltafet[1] and is considered a political rapper.[2] There is not much information available about Shapur's identity.[2]

Shapur was officially introduced as a member of the Moltafet group around 2022.[2] He announced his debut with the group Moltafet by releasing songs such as “Karkareh”, “Ghasem Kojayi”, “Ettela'at” and “Faramoshi” and “Achmaz”, and participating in the album “Haq” by Fadaei. His songs often have political and anti-Islamic Republic themes.[2][3] Some of his song lyrics, such as those from “Death to the Entire Regime”, were used as slogans during the 2022 Iranian protests.[2][4][5] However, this artist's repertoire also includes diss tracks.[6][7]
