Davido should’ve given me $10k after using me to trend – Portable
A street-hop artist, Portable, has resumed dragging his colleague, Davido, following their recent linkup in the United States, which he opined was an exploitative act.
The controversial singer accused Davido of ripping him by inviting him to dinner without mulling the idea of a collaboration or giving him money.
Speaking in a fresh video, Portable said Omo Baba Olowo only wanted to use him to trend on social media platforms. The Zazuu Zeh star expected at least $10,000 from the DMW boss.
Portable said, “Davido ripped me; you invited me out for a dinner in America, but you didn’t give me a verse or money; you just used me to trend. You should have given me at least $10,000.”.

recalls that Habeeb “Portable” Okikiola and Afrobeats superstar Davido fell out last week after the former dragged the latter for allegedly giving him bad advice regarding a music deal with Sony Music.
He claimed that Davido, who signed with Sony Music, advised him against joining the label and urged him to sign with Empire instead.
The highly controversial musician stated that he prefers helpers like Skepta and Olamide, who gave him gifts and still connected him with global fashion brands.
Portable said: “You are signed to Sony Music, but you’re giving me bad advice in America to get signed to Empire and collect an advance. The same Grammy you’re chasing is what I’m also chasing.
“Olamide helped me directly; Skepta gave me money, shoes, and clothes and still linked me up with big fashion brands. That’s the kind of helper I want from God, not someone who will be following my mouth.”.
Following his outburst, Davido unfollowed him on Instagram on Thursday. Reacting, Portable said he doesn’t need Davido’s followership or assistance to be a successful artist or to win a Grammy.
