Controversial artist Portable expressed his disappointment with rapper Olamide, stating that he felt unsupported during his rise in the music industry.
Despite Olamide’s feature on the hit track Zazu Zeh in 2021, Portable claimed that he was left feeling abandoned as he received no further help or guidance from the rapper after the collaboration.
“I can’t drag Skepta because he hold my hand, Olamide didn’t hold my hand,” Portable said.
“He gave me a verse on ‘Zazu’ and left me without a management. He can’t sign me now because I’m now a global superstar,” he added.
Portable praised British-Nigerian rapper Skepta, claiming the international artist played a more impactful role in his career beyond just music. He suggested that Skepta’s influence helped open doors for him on a global scale.
This isn’t the first time Portable has publicly taken jabs at Olamide. In the past, he accused the YBNL boss of allegedly snatching his producer, dancer, and promoter shortly after the viral success of Zazu Zeh. Olamide, however, has consistently refrained from responding to the accusations or engaging in public spats.
Despite his criticisms, the street singer acknowledged Olamide’s contribution to his initial fame but insisted that he expected more hands-on support from the music mogul.
