Singer Portable has set his sights on winning the Grammys. The ‘Zazzu Zeh’ singer made his plans known during an interview with high-profile comedian and content creator Timi Agbaje.

When quizzed about what it means to attain the top of his career, the singer said winning a Grammy would be a confirmation.

However, the singer says he aims to win the Best African Artist category of the global awards. The recording academy does not have a category for the Best African Artist, but Portable has declared it his dream to achieve.

Portable also expressed joy at the fact that young people in Nigeria see him as an inspiration. A lot of youths copy his hairstyle and the singer disclosed that he was almost angered when people started mimicking him but would maintain his cool after discovering that it all came with his fame and success.

Discussing about female artists in the country, Portable described himself as a legend and would love to do collaborations with superstar female musicians like Tiwa Savage and Asa. He also called on established male acts like Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy to help launch him into mainstream entertainment just like YBNL boss Olamide, did with Zazzu Zeh his hit track.

Without a doubt, Portable is one of the fastest-rising music acts in the Nigerian entertainment scene at the moment. Apart from singing, his style and vibe on social media is being imitated by Nigeria’s youth population.

The year 2023 is still very far from over, it might be the year Portable goes global with his sounds.
