‘I’m next’ – Skepta Reacts After Portable Calls Out Olamide, Fans Concerned for UK Rapper’s Involvement

British rapper Skepta has voiced his concern following a public outburst from controversial Nigerian singer Portable, who recently aimed music executive and rapper Olamide over his rumored fallout with Asake.
Portable, known for his frequent tirades against collaborators, mocked Olamide on social media, alleging that the YBNL boss only gave him a verse on the ‘Zazu‘ remix instead of offering him a full record deal.
He also claimed that Olamide “snatched” his producer, dancer, and promoter Kogbagidi from him, further intensifying the public drama.
As fans watched the situation unfold, many became apprehensive about Skepta, who had collaborated with Portable on the track ‘Tony Montana‘ the previous year. With Portable’s history of public disputes, fans began to worry that the British rapper might be next in line to face the singer’s wrath.
In response to his name trending on X, Skepta took to the platform with a lighthearted post, asking, “Why am I trending? Lol.”
A fan quickly replied, “I think you know why,” to which Skepta humorously responded, “I’ve just seen Portable is dragging somebody again. Apparently, I’m next. We dey wait lol.”
Skepta’s playful response reflects his calm demeanor despite the escalating drama around Portable, leaving fans to wonder if the UK rapper’s collaboration with the singer will be the next subject of controversy.
