Nigerian singer Portable, known for his controversial style, has responded to Afrobeat artist Asake after the release of Asake’s new song, Military.
In a viral video, Portable took a jab at Asake’s English skills, saying, “You’re so dumb; you’re rich but still can’t speak good English.”
Asake, recognized for blending Yoruba and street slang in his songs, has just released Military. In this track, he boldly states that English is not his first language (“Oyinbo ko oro l’enu mi”). This statement has generated buzz online, with many interpreting it as a reaction to critics who make fun of his accent.
He also highlighted his hard work and successes. The artist, who missed out on a Grammy, sang, “Talk your shit, mo mo pe o ma n ko ba ni” (I know it can implicate), which sparked rumors that he was throwing shade at singer Portable.
However, Portable didn’t hold back in a video on his Instagram. He took a shot at Asake, making fun of him for not speaking fluent English, even though he is rich and famous.
Portable also claimed that he has the same level of success as Asake.
In his words, “You sing one, I sing two. Which achievements do you have that I don’t have, or which country did you go that I never go. You no fit speak English, boya ko lo gba teacher ooo. Olodo rabata.”
Portable’s statement has sparked a huge response from fans and music lovers.
