- Skpeta has been trending online ever since Portable began to criticize renowned musician Olamide on social media platforms.
- Surprised to see himself trending, Skepta shared a tweet asking why he was trending to which Nigerians gave him a hint.
- His reaction after finding out the reason for trending has sent netizens reeling in laughter.
Nigerian-British rapper, Skepta, whose real name is Joseph Junior Adenuga might be Portable’s next target after he descended heavily on Olamide, who propelled him to prominence.
It will be recalled that Portable went on a full rant on social media to call out rapper Olamide Adedeji. The controversial singer had alleged that Olamide pitted Asake against him and encouraged him to copy his style.
Portable taunted Olamide following Asake’s exit from his music label, YBNL, adding that he would not have been an ungrateful artiste, had the roles been reversed. Portable said:
“Olamide, You used Asake to tackle me in the industry. You wanted to use him to cancel me, that was why I ran to Sango. From Sango, I travelled round the world. Now see the person you lifted above me, he has dumped you. He didn’t even say thank you. You took away my producer, my promoter, Kogbagidi and my dancer.’
“Now see life, Asake does not appreciate you anymore yet I still appreciate you for the verse you gave me in Zazu. I started the idea of wearing big shoes and oversized clothes but you told Asake to be wearing it. You are a copy cat. Davido, I was the influencer for crypto and bitcoin but you have hijacked it from me and you claim you are a rich man.”
Reacting to the brouhaha the Zazuu Crooner’s words has caused online, Skepta realised that he had been trending due to this.
He stated that he had just seen that Portable had dragged someone else, and apparently, he might be next. His tweet read:
“Why am I trending? Lol.
I’ve just seen Portable is dragging somebody again, apparently I’m next. We dey wait lol.”
Skepta, also known as Big Smoke’s tweet has since gone viral with netizens praising him for being self-aware. Many have also opined that if Portable could berate Olamide, no one would be above it. See screenshot of Big Smoke’s post and reactions to it below:

OyinAtiBode: “I really am not sure how to respond to this. I pray and hope he doesn’t do it…but then, seeing you mention this will make him do it even faster. I’m sure we all know it has to do with mental health. You already understand what I mean, so let me not say more.”
Magik_jay_: “So smoke among all the musicians in Nigeria you chose to ft portable but why?”
rotcivola: “Portable won’t drag you. You saved him from the embarrassment of betrayals. After Olamide you’re his god.”
