In other news, Portable has found inspiration in the latest viral social media trend “The Chosen” and has announced a new EP titled The Chosen. Known for his ability to stay in the public eye with his unconventional antics and music, Portable has continued to ride the wave of internet fame with his latest project.
The viral trend “The Chosen” stems from the incredible testimonies of miracles shared by members of the Nigerian Pentecostal Church Chosen Revival Ministries, whose brightly coloured bibs have become a trademark.
