Controversial Nigerian singer Portable has launched a scathing attack on fellow artist Bella Shmurda following comments about a potential collaboration between the two musicians.
The dispute began when Bella Shmurda, during an interview with Isbae U on the Curiosity Made Me Ask podcast, stated that he couldn't see himself collaborating with Portable due to their differing musical styles.
"I just don't see the connection in the music. I don't want wahala, I want peace," Bella Shmurda explained during the interview.
Portable's Fiery Response
Portable, known for his outspoken nature, took to Instagram with a video response that didn't hold back. The "Zazu" crooner labeled Bella Shmurda a "failed musician" who couldn't afford to collaborate with him.
"Anytime you wan do an interview, don't mention my name again. You can't feature me? I have been to America, London. No be who first blow o, na who dey blow dey go," Portable stated in the video.
He further questioned what connection could possibly exist between them, saying, "Which connection wan join me and you? You are a failure. I no dey roll or do music with failures."
The exchange highlights the ongoing tension between the two artists, with Portable emphasizing his international presence and current relevance in the music industry as markers of his success.
Industry Reactions
This public spat adds to a growing list of controversies involving Portable, who has become known for his confrontational approach toward fellow artists in the Nigerian music industry.
Bella Shmurda, who recently made headlines for stating he no longer considers himself part of the secular music industry, has yet to respond to Portable's latest outburst.
BenriNews reports that this incident comes shortly after Portable made allegations about a "gang up" against actor Ibrahim Chatta following the 11th Africa Magic Viewers' Choice Awards (AMVCA).
