Toyin Lawani: ‘Portable is One of the Most Genuine Entertainers I’ve Ever Met’

In a post on Instagram, Lawani referred to Portable as one of the most sincere entertainers she has come across. She recognized his remarkable skill in capturing public interest and promoting himself consistently, which she considers a genuine talent. Furthermore, she highlighted that, despite his success and wealth, he remains humble and connected to his origins.

She wrote:

“Wahala for who no like @portablebaeby.
He’s one of the most Authentic entertainers I’ve ever met.
He’s just a dram king that’s all,
It’s actually real talent to know how to grasp public attention while selling yourself nonstop,
If I tell you portable is actually calm in real life will you argue?
Most popularly asked question—if Portable has made this much money, why is he still living in the trenches?
I watched this video and it made a lot of sense why he’s still there”.
