Career[edit]

Portable became famous[4] after contributing to the song "ZaZoo Zehh" featuring Nigerian rapper Olamide[5] and Nigerian dancer Poco Lee.[6] During his early stage of fame, he became well known for calling out his business partners on social media for scamming him on business deals such as artist management and also on his Instagram handle where he does most of his activities.[7]

Controversy[edit]

During the early stages of Portable, he had issues with Poco Lee when he was invited to a concert that saw the visitation of both Wizkid and Olamide. Wizkid sprayed Portable some money, but surprising enough, Poco Lee split the money behind him and caused stirs.

Portable has been arrested by the Ogun State Police Command following the expiration of a 72-hour ultimatum given to him to turn himself in for refusing to honor a police invitation over an alleged assault.

In the early hours of Monday, 3 April 2023, Portable was charged in the Ifo high court in Ogun state.[8][9][10][11]
