Controversial singer Portable apologises to Saheed Osupa over copyright dispute

Controversial hip-hop artist, Portable, has publicly apologised to Fuji musician, King Saheed Osupa, for referring to him as “big for nothing.” The apology comes after Portable faced widespread criticism for his disrespectful remarks towards the Fuji legend.

The dispute began when Portable used a line from King Saheed’s song in one of his tracks, leading to allegations of copyright infringement. Osupa’s distribution team reportedly filed a complaint, resulting in the removal of Portable’s song from major streaming platforms, including Apple Music and Spotify.

In a video shared on his Instagram page, Portable expressed regret for his earlier outburst, attributing his actions to his temperament. He appealed to his fans and King Saheed Osupa for forgiveness, acknowledging the role of financial disputes in the conflict.

“My fans, I’m a hot-tempered person. I have said my mind, and it has ended. My fans, please forgive me. King Saheed Osupa, Oba Orin, please don’t be offended. It’s money that causes fights. It’s money that destroys relationships between siblings and even between father and son. It was music money that caused our fight because it was when I went to collect money for the song that I was told it had been removed from streaming platforms. Please, my daddy, forgive me and accept me as your child,” Portable pleaded.
