- Street hop star Portable has expressed his dream of performing at the iconic O2 Arena, a symbol of Nigerian music’s global rise.
- Portable, in an interview with Quincy Jonze, praised his evolution and his current level of performance, stating he deserves to headline the O2 Arena.
Nigerian street-hop sensation Portable has expressed his ambition to one day headline the prestigious O2 Arena, a venue that has played a significant role in the global expansion of Nigerian music.
Speaking in a recent interview on Echo Room with host Quincy Jonze, Portable reflected on his growth as an artist and declared that he has reached a stage in his career where he deserves to take center stage at the iconic London venue.
Portable, known for his outspoken nature and controversial takes, has in the past accused Grammy-nominated artist Asake of copying his dance moves and even his facial tattoos. His desire to perform at the O2 Arena appears to be intertwined with this rivalry, as he continues to position himself as a major force in the Nigerian music scene.
Beyond his musical ambitions, Portable remains a frequent subject of controversy. Recently, he made headlines after launching a verbal attack on Fuji music legend King Saheed Osupa in a now-viral video.
Additionally, Portable had a recent run-in with the Ogun State Police after he was declared wanted for allegedly assaulting government officials. He later turned himself in and was granted bail, vowing to avoid further trouble.
Throughout his career, Portable has been involved in public feuds with industry figures, including Poco Lee, Goya Menor (whom he later reconciled with), and even Afrobeats star Davido, whom he called out for not featuring on a song with him.
While his dream of headlining the O2 Arena may seem far-fetched to some, one thing remains certain—Portable knows how to keep himself in the spotlight.
