Why I dropped out of school – Singer, Portable reveals

Fast-rising singer, born Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable has revealed the reason he dropped out of school.

The singer, Portable, in a recent interview on Jahbless Original Intelligence Podcast, revealed how he had to leave school to focus fully on his music career because ‘music is a money-making machine.’

According to the singer, he knew right from the start how wealthy he would become with music if he faced it full time.

“Music brings money and is a fast money-making machine. If you sing you must have money unless you’re not good at it, if you’re a musician, you must be rich. I observed that I make a lot of money whenever I sing.” he said.

The artiste continued further stating that before he rose to fame in December last year, 2021, he met with some influential people who killed his career with ‘over-packaging’

He said; “You know if they don wicked you severally. So I brought the whole craziness into the music industry.

“Even if you want to do business with someone who reaps you off, make sure you let them know that you are aware of the kind of person they are but you still want to do business but they should also be mindful that you are not weak.

“They know say I sabi sing but they did not open the door. I have met a lot of people that said I’m good but it all ended there. They will sign you and keep you in a room, even when you meet influential people who intend to sponsor you but they will kill your career with over-packaging.”
