Portable Sparks Controversy, Claims Olamide Did Not Make Him Famous.

Nigerian singer Portable has once again stirred up reactions on social media following his claim that his fame was not due to Olamide or Poco Lee but rather a result of his own efforts and talent. The controversial artist made this statement during a recent interview, emphasizing that he had already started gaining attention before collaborating with the two on his breakout hit, Zazoo Zeh.

Portable stated, “Nobody made me famous. I trended.” He further explained that while he appreciates the contributions of Olamide and Poco Lee, they did not “make” him. This comment comes as a surprise to many, given the critical role Olamide played by featuring on Zazoo Zeh, a song that brought Portable into mainstream recognition. Poco Lee also contributed significantly by popularizing the song through his dance choreography and wide reach in the entertainment industry.

Social media users responded to Portable’s remarks with a mix of criticism and humor. Many felt his statements were ungrateful, pointing out how Olamide’s endorsement gave him a platform to showcase his talent. Others viewed it as another example of Portable’s eccentric and outspoken personality, which has become a defining characteristic of his public image.

This controversy adds to Portable’s history of contentious remarks about the Nigerian music industry. He has previously criticized fellow artists for failing to support him and often positions himself as a self-made success. Despite his frequent clashes with industry norms and personalities, Portable remains a polarizing figure, drawing attention for both his raw talent and unpredictable behavior .

The singer’s comments reignite discussions about the role of collaboration in the music industry and the extent to which artists can claim full credit for their success when supported by established figures. While some fans admire Portable’s confidence, others urge him to show more humility and acknowledge the people who have helped shape his career.
