“Zazu Blew Olamide Internationally” — Portable Sparks Controversy with Bold Claim, Says Skepta Gained Nigerian Street Cred Through Him 🚨🔥 #PortableSpeaks
In true Portable fashion, the self-styled "Wahala Music" crooner is back in the headlines — and this time, it’s for a bold claim that’s raising eyebrows in the Nigerian music scene.
In a recent video broadcast, the singer alleged that his breakout hit "Zazu Zeh" was responsible for giving Olamide international recognition, while his collaboration with UK rapper Skepta gave the Brit rapper Nigerian street credibility.
“Zazu blow Olamide internationally, Tony Montana blow Skepta for streets,” Portable stated, before appealing:
“Olamide I need your verse or feature me on your album.”
🤔 Let’s Break This Down
Portable’s 2021 viral hit “Zazu Zeh” undoubtedly thrust him into the spotlight — thanks in no small part to Olamide, who graciously co-signed the street sensation at a critical moment in his career. The song was a national hit, dominating the streets, clubs, and social media.
But to say it “blew Olamide internationally”? That’s where fans are divided.
Olamide, already a household name with global collaborations and hits like “Infinity” and “Wo!!”, had long cemented his international status before Portable came into the picture.
Likewise, Skepta, a Grammy-nominated artist and one of the most respected voices in grime, had no shortage of street appeal in Nigeria prior to his link-up with Portable on “Tony Montana”. But yes — that collab did spark buzz in Nigerian pop culture circles.
💬 Our Take: Portable Is the King of Attention — And He Knows It
This isn’t just another quote — it’s Portable being Portable. Outrageous, unpredictable, and unfiltered. But underneath the chaos is a strategy: stay relevant, stay loud, and never stop asking for more.
And he’s not wrong about one thing — he wants more collaborations with Olamide, and who wouldn’t? The YBNL boss has a magic touch for elevating careers. Whether Olamide listens or not is a different story.
🎵 Final Word
Love him or hate him, Portable is a master of disruption. He may exaggerate, but he also represents the raw, unpolished voice of the streets — a reminder that in Nigerian music, everyone has a seat at the table, even the loudest one.
