Portable Targets Wizkid, Davido, And Burna Boy

Street-hop singer Portable has criticized some of Nigeria’s top music stars, including Wizkid, Davido, Olamide, and Burna Boy, for their dominance in the industry and the limited opportunities available for emerging talents.

In a passionate statement that gained significant attention online, Portable argued that established artists have maintained their status in the music scene for over a decade, making it challenging for new artists to gain recognition.

He also commented on the lavish lifestyles often linked to successful musicians, suggesting that some artists inflate the worth of their luxury items to impress fans and the public.

Portable remarked, “They can claim they bought a chain for one billion dollars, while it may have been given to them for free.”

His remarks have sparked discussions online, with both fans and industry observers responding to his assertions.

This statement is expected to elicit responses from other artists and contribute to ongoing discussions about influence, longevity, and opportunities within Nigeria’s music industry.

Wizkid, Olamide, Davido, and Burna Boy have been at the top for over 10 years. Are there no other artists too? And they lie a lot, they can say they bought a chain for 1 billion dollars, whereas it might have been given to them for free.” — Portable pic.twitter.com/StHP5KzrEQ
