Controversial Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has responded harshly to recent comments made by fellow artist Bella Shmurda regarding a potential collaboration between the two.
Bella Shmurda, during an appearance on the Curiosity Made Me Ask podcast hosted by Isbae U, stated that he had no interest in working with Portable due to a lack of artistic synergy. He explained, “I just don’t see the connection in the music. I don’t want wahala, I want peace.”
The comment sparked a fiery reaction from Portable, who took to his Instagram page to berate Bella Shmurda. In a video shared with his followers, Portable dismissed Bella’s stance, claiming the singer couldn’t afford a feature with him and branding him a “failed musician.”
“Anytime you want to do an interview, don’t mention my name again,” Portable warned. “You say you can’t feature me? I’ve been to America, London. It’s not about who blew first, it’s who is still blowing. What connection could we possibly have? You are a failure. I don’t roll or make music with failures.”
The exchange has stirred fresh tension in the music industry, drawing mixed reactions from fans of both artists.
