Olamide, Davido, Wizkid have all fed me – Portable lectures his new artistes about gratitude

Controversial street-hop singer, Habeeb Okikiola also known as Portable recently signed some new artistes to Zeh Nation and decided to welcome them with a lecture on gratitude.

In a video posted on his Instagram page, Portable revealed that ace musicians, Davido, Wizkid and Burna Boy have all fed him from their hard-earned money, hence why he sees each of them as his daddy.

He was addressing his latest signees in the studio when he also informed them that he sees Slimcase as his helper because he bought him a shoe and clothe sometime back.

The Zazuu star’s speech was aimed at making them realise the importance of showing appreciation to their benefactor, adding that he sees Slimcase, Baddo, OBO, Machala and Kogbagidi as his helpers.

Portable urged his signees not to betray him and in return he promised to take care of them while under his record label. He revealed that he was smart enough to help himself with the opportunities when it came and he wants them to do same.
