According to Speed Darlington, Portable not only rejected the offer but also insulted his mother in the process. In a video circulating online, he expressed his disappointment, emphasizing that Portable’s response went beyond a simple refusal and was outright disrespectful.
While the exact words Portable allegedly used remain undisclosed, the incident has sparked reactions among fans and further fueled the rivalry between the two controversial artists.
Portable Reportedly Demanded ₦20 Million for Performance
