It should be noted that Olamide and Portable worked on the smash single “Zazoo,” which is Portable's first hit song.
He said that the musician had ignored him and had not invited him to his thrilling London show, which recently garnered headlines on the internet.
He stated that even if Olamide was not proud of him, others, such as Davido, adore and appreciate him.
The Zazoo crooner also stated that he hoped to one day win a Grammy and become a well-known Nigerian music star.

Legit.ng earlier reported that a video went viral showing Nigerian rapper Olamide silently watching as controversial singer Portable criticised him.
In the clip, Olamide, who was sitting next to media personality Tunde Perry during a TikTok live session, appeared cool and unbothered as Portable yelled at him over claims that the YBNL boss dislikes him and did not show up for his song video or call him for his UK show.
While the comments persisted, Tunde Perry, who was with Olamide, was heard imploring the rapper to remain calm and ignore the situation.
Portable accused Olamide of bringing him international stardom with their smash song Zazu, but failing to support him in the way he expected.
He also stated that Olamide preferred to send a pre-recorded video for their collaboration rather than appearing in person. Olamide, on the other hand, remained calm, observing the outbursts without replying or expressing outrage.
The video elicited varied comments online, with some complimenting Olamide's maturity and others criticising Portable for disrespecting someone who helped him flourish in the industry.
