Fast rising musician, Habeeb Okikiola, aka Portable is a man of many parts despite his several controversies.
On Friday, March 11, the trending music star was a year older, and to celebrate his big day he showered some love to motherless babies.
Portable paid a visit to Little Saints Orphanage Home at Abule Egba part of Lagos.
He was there with his friends, children and family members.
He wrote, “Dr Zeh Nation ZAzuu If I could make a wish right now, it would be to be heard screaming across the universe just to show how happy I am. Happy birthday to me Portable omolalomi.”
Recall that out of nowhere, a remix of the song, Zazoo Zeh, by Portable, featuring prolific rapper, Olamide, and dancer, Poco Lee, became a regular street anthem across Nigeria.
The banging single loved by street music enthusiasts did so well that it earned Portable several opportunities to grace mammoth stages alongside top notch artistes during the festive periods.
At parties, corporate functions, bars, clubs and lounges, beach parties, among other spheres of music interests, the enigmatic single by the energetic artist has continued to thrill music lovers.
Portable’s Career
Portable Omolalomi decided to migrate to Lagos State, Africa’s music capital because he acknowledged he would have a greater shot of thriving in the industry if he was in the right position.
While in Lagos, Portable Omolalomi searched for producers with whom he might connect because he was writing creative rap tunes. To pay his costs, he continued to work as an artisan in Lagos’ mainland.
Portable Omolalomi remained persistent in his quest of just being an A-list musician in the industry, after creating a few singles that went badly commercially. He had an unexpected contact with his music star, Olamide, earlier, and fate smiled on him. Portable was awestruck as he knelt and sobbed uncontrollably over Olamide’s legs.
Interestingly for Portable Omolalomi, Olamide was delighted by his skills and offered him to work with dancer and recording artist Poco Lee on a long-term collaboration. Zazuu Zeh’s song was born from the project, and it was an instant success.
Portable has been thrust into the spotlight by the single, which has proved popular in the business because of its catchy lyrics and the term “Zazuu Zeh.” Portable Omolalomi has gotten numerous offers for collaboration from top artists in the business since becoming recognized after the single.
