The Nigerian music scene is once again set ablaze with drama as two of its biggest stars, Portable and Bella Shmurda, trade words over a possible musical collaboration. The latest episode of this saga has gripped fans across the nation, with social media buzzing and opinions flying high.
How It All Started
It all began when Bella Shmurda appeared on the popular Curiosity Made Me Ask podcast hosted by Isbae U. Asked if he would ever consider working with Portable, Bella Shmurda had this to say:
“Portable is good. He is a good man in his own way but I don’t see the connection in making music with him. I also don’t like wahala.”
Bella explained that he prefers peace and avoids trouble (“wahala”), and that their musical styles just don’t align. His comments were calm and respectful, but they clearly rubbed Portable the wrong way.
Portable’s Fiery Clapback
Not one to stay silent, Portable responded with a fiery video on his Instagram page. He boasted about his international success, claiming he has performed in America and London, and emphasized that he is currently one of the hottest acts in the industry.
“Anytime you wan do interview, no call my name. You cannot feature me. I’ve been to America, London. No be who first blow o, na who dey blow dey go. Which connection wan join me and you? You are a failure. I no dey roll or do music with failures.”
Portable made it clear that he sees Bella Shmurda as someone who can’t match his level of fame and influence. He also threw shade at Bella’s headspace, suggesting that Bella is not thinking clearly.
Fan Reactions and Industry Buzz
The exchange has set social media on fire. Fans are divided, with some supporting Portable’s boldness and others respecting Bella Shmurda’s peaceful approach. Many are talking about the importance of musical chemistry and the need for artists to choose their collaborators wisely.
Some fans are even speculating whether this drama will lead to a future hit song, while others are just enjoying the entertainment.
Quote of the Day
“No be who first blow o, na who dey blow dey go.”

This latest episode is a reminder of the passion and energy that drive the Nigerian music industry. While some artists prefer peace and quiet, others thrive on drama and controversy. Both approaches have their place, and both Portable and Bella Shmurda have huge fan bases that love them for who they are. One thing is certain: as long as there are big personalities and big opinions, the Nigerian music scene will never be boring. Whether this clash leads to a blockbuster collaboration or just more social media fun, fans are here for every moment.
