Controversial Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola, known as Portable, has criticized fellow artist Davido for allegedly giving him bad advice during a recent dinner in the United States. In an Instagram Live session, Portable claimed that Davido, who is signed with Sony Music, advised him to join Empire instead of Sony Music.
Portable expressed his disappointment, stating that he aims to achieve a Grammy like Davido, and felt that joining Empire might not help him reach that goal. He emphasized his preference for genuine support, referencing how Olamide and Skepta have directly helped him in his career.
“You are signed to Sony Music, but you’re giving me bad advice in America to get signed to Empire and collect advance. The same Grammy you’re chasing is what I’m also chasing,” Portable said. He praised Olamide and Skepta for their tangible support, contrasting it with what he perceives as Davido’s unhelpful guidance.
