Portable advises Berri Tiga over “Machala” ownership drama
Portable has reached out to colleague Berri Tiga in the midst of his ongoing song ownership dispute with skit creator Carterefe.
The Zazuu crooner video-called Berri and imparted some words of wisdom to him regarding his profession and the music industry based on his own experiences.
Portable posted a video of him and the singer discussing the ongoing dispute and other topics on his Instagram page.
He admonished the budding artist to use good judgement and not let himself be cheated out of what he is entitled.
In a popular video, Berri stated that Carter had offered him 5% of the profits from the song Machala, which he had independently written and performed.
Portable has also previewed a soon-to-be-released song which is targeted at ridiculing Machala by Carter Efe and Berri Tiga.
He wrote; ”Who go help you no go stress you ???? Aza Man
@berri_tiga Akoi Wise ???? KINIMAH FAJAH You’re Blowded. ????????????”

The duo of Efe and Tiga have been clashing online over rights to the chart-topping hit song, Machala and there have been allegations thrown around.
On one hand, Berri claimed that he wrote and sang the song from beginning to end, yet Carter offered to split the returns 95percent/5 percent.
While Efe said the singer lied and tried to use his management to take ownership of the single after seeing that it was a massive success.
Following the daily drama they’ve been embroiled in, Portable has released a snippet of a song titled Aza Man.
He made reference to the purported 5 per cent offer Carterefe made to Berri Tiga and sang about the need to be wise.
Sharing the video, the Zazuu star wrote; ”Dem Go Give You 5% You Go Wise #Azaman Drops Soon”.
