Nigerian artist Portable has called out Davido for allegedly using him to trend without compensating him financially or featuring him on a song. In a recent interview, Portable expressed his frustration with the situation, stating that he felt taken advantage of by the popular musician.
According to Portable, Davido reached out to him to collaborate on a song, promising to feature him on a track and help boost his career. However, after Portable helped Davido trend on social media, he claims that Davido failed to follow through on his promises.
"He used me to trend and didn't give me money or verse," Portable said in the interview. "I feel like he took advantage of me and my popularity to benefit himself without giving anything in return."
Portable's accusations have sparked a debate among fans and industry insiders, with many questioning Davido's motives and ethics in his dealings with other artists. Some have criticized Davido for allegedly exploiting Portable's talent and popularity for his own gain, while others have defended Davido, arguing that collaborations in the music industry are often based on mutual benefit.
Regardless of the outcome of this controversy, Portable's story serves as a cautionary tale for aspiring artists who may be tempted to collaborate with more established musicians. It highlights the importance of clear communication, fair compensation, and mutual respect in any professional relationship, especially in the competitive and sometimes cutthroat world of the music industry.
As for Davido, he has yet to respond to Portable's accusations publicly. Whether or not he chooses to address the situation, it is clear that Portable's words have struck a chord with fans and fellow artists alike, sparking a larger conversation about power dynamics and ethics in the music business. Only time will tell how this controversy will impact both Portable and Davido's careers moving forward.
