I’ve Helped More People Inusic Industry Than Olamide, Don Jazzy, Others – Portable Claims

Controversial Nigerian singer Portable has claimed that he has assisted more people in the music industry than his colleagues Olamide, Don Jazzy, Wizkid and Davido.
Speaking in a video broadcast, the Zazu crooner stated that his assistance is not only limited to those in the music industry but also extends to the less privileged.
He explained that, unlike most of his colleagues who are egoistic, he associates freely with ordinary people and even identifies with them on social media.

Portable said, “Many Nigerian celebrities don’t post their fans even if they dance to their songs or promote them. But I repost every positive video about me.
“Even with your money, many celebrities won’t let you feature them as an upcoming artist. But I help people freely. I have helped more people in the music industry than Don Jazzy, Olamide, Wizkid, and Davido.
“Help is when you see a homeless person and take them home, shelter them, clothe and feed them. You also take them to their first studio session and pay for it. Anything other than that, you are just doing business. A lot of the people claiming that they are helping others in the music industry are just doing business.
“Most of the time, when the artists they are using for business decide to be independent or move forward, they label them ungrateful. How are they ungrateful? You only used them for business.”

He said: “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings and a bulldozer came and demolished it.
“We were living in a boys’ quarter, me, my mum, my dad, all of us. The whole family, six boys and two girls living in a one-bedroom apartment.
“They had to divide the room with a curtain. So, the landlord had sold the compound, we were trying to plead to get some time to plan our relocation and then a bulldozer came and started demolishing the house while we were still in the building.”
