According to Portable, the altercation happened shortly after he touched down in the UK ahead of a performance.
The singer said he had barely had time to settle in when the men, who were apparently also staying in the same apartment, began pointing their cameras at him and live-sharing his whereabouts with people back home.

Portable speaks out on privacy
The Zazu crooner explained the situation in his own words:
"I just got to London and I haven't even had time to rest. These people came into the apartment where I'm staying to perform the show, and suddenly they started recording me with their cameras, even while I was eating. This same guy has been calling and face timing almost all his family members, telling them that Watibu is in London and basically broadcasting my location to everyone. I really don't like this. I value my privacy, especially when it comes to where I'm staying. You can't just be telling people where I'm staying or constantly recording me without even considering whether I'm comfortable with it."
The clip quickly made rounds on social media, drawing a wave of reactions from fans who largely sided with the singer on the matter.
