Portable went ahead to taunt Olamide for prioritising Asake instead of him in his record label. The Zazu crooner said that if the YBNL boss had given him a record deal, he would have signed it.

He went on to claim that the person Olamide helped, Asake, ended up being ungrateful and dumped his label after becoming a big name. Portable said that Olamide stopped producer P Prime from producing his music, and accused him of collecting his dancer T Dollar and his promoter, Kogbagidi.

In his words:

“See the person you helped, he dumped you. You took him there and he dropped you without saying thank you. Olamide Badoo, if you had told me to sign a deal with you, I would have signed it. You took my producer, P Prime, you stopped him from producing my music, you collected my promoter Kogbagidi, you also collected my dancer, someone I trained, T Dollar, they used him to promote their own album. You’re doing too much Mr Man. The person you even helped eventually wasn’t grateful to you and I was grateful, you only gave me a verse and I appreciated it. As una carry Ololade reach there, make una carry Oriade pass there.”

Also in the post, Portable claimed that he was the one who started wearing big shoes and clothes but Asake started copying his style by wearing even bigger clothes and shoes.

As the Zazu crooner accused people in the industry of being copycats, he claimed that Davido started promoting crypto because of him, thereby taking food from his mouth despite the 30BG boss already being a rich kid.
