Portable Sets Sights on Burna Boy Collaboration After Boxing Win and ₦20 Million Gift
Fresh off his viral boxing victory over Speed Darlington and a surprise ₦20 million cash gift from Burna Boy, street-hop sensation Portable is now aiming for something even bigger—a music collaboration with the Grammy-winning Afrobeats star.
In a viral clip shared on X (formerly Twitter), Portable was captured on a call with Burna Boy’s manager, who confirmed that the hefty cash had been credited to his account. The visibly excited singer wasted no time, using the moment to make a bold pitch:
“Burna don credit me? Burna ti te owo? I want to feature Burna, I want to sing with Burna!”

The plea came shortly after Portable’s knockout performance in a highly publicised celebrity boxing match, where he bested Speed Darlington in a showdown that dominated social media conversations.
While Speed Darlington left the ring with a supposed injury and a bruised ego, Portable walked away with not just the victory but a fat reward from Odogwu himself.
Still, for Portable, the money is just the beginning.
Fans are buzzing with speculation and excitement at the possibility of a Portable x Burna Boy collab. Some say it could be chaotic, others say it could be genius—or both. Given Burna Boy’s unpredictable yet generous nature, many believe it’s not entirely out of reach.
If the collaboration does happen, it would mark a huge moment in Portable’s career, aligning him with one of the most globally recognised voices in African music.
And if nothing else, it shows just how far Portable is willing to go to shoot his shot.
