Portable has been one of the artists advancing the inner cities through his music and news-making lifestyle since breaking into the mainstream.
Portable, who was reacting to Wizkid’s latest philanthropic act of gifting rising hypeman, GEO, 20 million naira, reminded Nigerians in a video posted on his Instagram account that he was the one who encouraged Wizkid to show love to the streets in the first place.
Portable’s claims are true, as he requested on The Honest Bunch Podcast that the three Afrobeats heavyweights, Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy “show love to the trenches.”
Portable has a request after Wizkid fulfilled his request by gifting GOE 20 million naira after his song, Big Wizzy (Italawa), about the Grammy winner went viral.
Portable stated in the video that he does not want money from Wizkid. Instead, he stated publicly that he would like to collaborate with Wizkid on a future project. He also made the same request of Davido, asking for “a life-changing verse.”
Since enjoying mainstream success with the Olamide Baddo-assisted Zazzu Zeh hit single, Portable has been looking for his next big collaboration.
This is not the first time Portable has invited big names in Nigerian music to collaborate with him. He has previously asked Wizkid, Davido, Burna Boy, Tiwa Savage, and Asake to consider working with him as he pursues his own superstar status.
None of the superstars on his list have yet to give him a verse, but Portable is undeterred in his pursuit.
