Street-hop sensation Portable is wasting no time getting back to the spotlight after his recent brush with the law. Just days after regaining his freedom, the controversial hitmaker has teased a brand-new song that captures the drama of his legal ordeal, signaling that he’s far from backing down.
The track, titled ‘Oni Reason’, was previewed in a video shared on Portable’s official Instagram page, where he appeared energetic and defiant. The snippet reveals a typical Portable-style fusion of raw street energy and unfiltered commentary, as he narrates his latest saga from police cells to the booth.
This comes after the singer was released from detention in Kwara State, where he was held following a criminal defamation complaint filed by Fuji legend, King Saheed Osupa. The case, which made headlines, saw Portable accused of making defamatory statements against the Fuji icon. Despite the drama, the self-styled “Wahala Musician” seems to be turning adversity into art once again.
In the teaser, Portable sings about his struggles, his unwavering belief in divine timing, and the unpredictable journey that fame has brought him. “Everything get reason. My matter na God dey run am,” he chants in Yoruba-inflected vocals, echoing his popular street preacher persona. The beat, vibrant and heavy with percussive elements, underscores his resilience and street credibility.
With ‘Oni Reason’, Portable is proving once again that controversy only fuels his creativity. While it’s unclear when the full track will drop, one thing’s for sure, Portable is back, louder and more unapologetic than ever.
