Street hop artist Portable recently expressed his deep gratitude to rapper Olamide, crediting him for transforming his life and propelling him to success. 

Taking to TikTok, Portable reflected on his journey from performing for a mere N200 at events to collaborating with “the best rapper in the UK” after Olamide’s intervention.

He was citing his recent collaboration with UK rapper Skepta on their new effort “Tony Montana”, a song that has seen a meteoric rise on both Apple and Spotify charts, hitting the summit. 

In heartfelt remarks, Portable shared, “I would have still been on the streets if not for Olamide. I went to London to collaborate with the best rapper in the UK, and it’s all thanks to Olamide. He told me that I was gonna make it even when nobody believed in me, and I have made it bigger than I ever thought.”

Highlighting Olamide’s generosity, Portable continued, “Olamide is a boss, and I respect him so much. He sponsored me without asking for anything in return. Olamide is the only guy in the music industry that showed me love. He paved the way for me, and God used him to bless me. I’m from the streets, I used to perform for N200, but I thank God for sending Olamide to me.”
