Portable Appeals for Music Collaboration After Receiving N20M Gift from Burna Boy
Following his recent victory in a high-profile celebrity boxing match, Nigerian street-hop sensation Portable is setting his sights on a new ambition – a music collaboration with Afrobeats heavyweight Burna Boy.
In a now-viral video circulating on social media, Portable was seen in a phone conversation with Burna Boy’s manager, who confirmed that the Grammy-winning star had credited the singer with a N20 million cash gift. Visibly thrilled, Portable used the opportunity to make an open appeal for a musical feature.
“Burna don credit me, Burna ti te owo? I want to feature Burna, I want to sing with Burna,” he said excitedly in the clip.
The unexpected windfall came shortly after Portable’s headline-making win against Speed Darlington in a celebrity boxing match, which saw the latter reportedly suffer an injury. While the cash gift appeared to be Burna Boy’s way of acknowledging Portable’s spirited performance, the “Zazuu” crooner made it clear that what he truly desires is a chance to collaborate musically with the Afrofusion star.
The video has since sparked widespread reaction online, with many fans calling on Burna Boy to consider jumping on a track with Portable — a move that would surely shake up the Nigerian music scene.
