Controversial Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola Badmus, popularly known as Portable, has reacted to claims that some top music industry figures in the country have blacklisted him.

Popular influencer, Tunde Perry recently sparked reactions after revealing that he attended a meeting where some top music executives allegedly blacklisted Portable for gross misconduct.

He claimed that Portable’s unruly actions in the industry did not just put him in the black book of top industry heads but affected the chances of up-and-coming artists being assisted by established artists and executives.

Perry further claimed that ace rapper and music executive Olamide is now skeptic about assisting up-and-coming artists due to his experience with Portable, who turned to his critic after he assisted him on his breakthrough track ‘Zazu.’

Reacting via a video broadcast, Portable blasted Tunde Perry, Olamide, and the music executives, who allegedly blacklisted him.

He boasted that he doesn’t need the support of any music executive to succeed in the music industry, adding that his fans are enough for him.

The Zazu crooner claimed that he is currently a bigger figure in the music industry than the promoters and artists, who allegedly blacklisted him.

Portable said, “I am bigger than them. Who are those who want to blacklist? I heard that Tunde Perry said Olamide and his circle of music executives called for me to be blacklisted. Are you guys, my fans or my God? Are you feeding me?

“I have my own fans. I am bigger than any f**king person. Anyone who wants to help you, won’t stress you. Don’t use the assistance you gave me in the past to stress me. Are you the only one who has ever assisted me?

“There are a lot of people who helped me without stressing me. Why would you say they shouldn’t play my songs again? Olamide, don’t mess with me. If you mess with me, I will return the energy. Stay on your own lane.”

Popular Nigerian content creator, Shank has stirred reactions online after opening up about a personal clash with his mother over tattoos, while also revealing a fresh body ink linked to his “Lit Gang” identity.

The revelation surfaced in a recent viral video shared on his social platforms, where he recounted the moment he tattooed his mother’s name, “Oluremi,” on his arm.

According to him, what he expected to be an emotional moment quickly turned tense.

“The day I tattooed my mum’s name on my arm, she started crying and quoting Bible,” Shank said.

He explained that his mother strongly opposed the act, citing religious reasons and warning him against marking his body.

“She told me, ‘did I ask you to draw my name? I don’t like it. Don’t do tattoo again. God said don’t mark your body,’” he recalled.

Shank, however, said he challenged her stance by pointing out what he described as a contradiction.

“I asked her, if you say I should leave my body the way God created it, why do you shave your hair? You that shave hair and me that draw tattoo, we are committing the same sin,” he added.

The content creator used the moment to advise young people navigating similar situations with parents, stressing the importance of independence when making personal decisions.

“Just make sure you’re independent before doing what your parents are not comfortable with,” he said.

Amid the conversation, Shank also unveiled a new tattoo on his back with the inscription “Lit Gang,” a move that has further fueled reactions among fans.

While some social media users backed his arguement on personal choice and self-expression, others sided with his mother, citing cultural and religious concerns about body markings.

The development has continued to generate debate online, highlighting the growing tension between traditional beliefs and modern youth culture in Nigeria’s entertainment space.
