I Would Have Still Be on the Street Performing to Earn N200, If… – Portable
In a heartfelt acknowledgment of his rise from humble beginnings, street hop sensation, Habeeb Okikiola, widely known as Portable has publicly thanked rap icon Olamide for his pivotal role in his musical career.
On a popular social media platform, Portable shared his journey from performing at local events for a mere N200 to collaborating with top artists in the UK, attributing his success to Olamide’s generous support.
He said; “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.
“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.
“Olamide 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.”
