Saheed Osupa and Portable

Fuji singer, Saheed Osupa, has warned that Portable will still be dealt with, days after the street-pop artiste apologised over a copyright clash.

Osupa made the remark in a trending video posted online on Tuesday, April 1, 2025, while singing to entertain and excite his fans during a recent outing.

In the video, which has gone viral on social media, the veteran Fuji musician said, “You will still be dealt with. I’m coming. If you come for someone older than you, area boys will be deceiving you. They’ll tell you they’re frying eggs so you can eat your bread. They’ll fry yam and egg for you, and even tell you Yamarita is ready, you’ll still be dealt with. Not now, but it’s coming.”

Although Osupa didn’t mention names, many fans believe his message was directed at Portable, who had earlier called him “big for nothing” after his song was taken down from streaming platforms due to copyright complaints.

On March 19, Portable accused Osupa of reporting his track, which contained a line lifted from one of the Fuji singer’s songs.

The removal sparked a heated rant from Portable, who said, “Saheed Osupa, you are big for nothing… Keep your distance if you can’t embrace me like the way Pasuma abducted me like his own child.”

However, in a surprising turn, Portable posted a video the following day apologising for his outburst, blaming it on his short temper and the pain of losing potential earnings.

“It was music money that caused our fight… Please my daddy, forgive me and abduct me as your child,” he pleaded on March 20.

Osupa, 55, who is widely regarded as one of the most lyrical voices in Fuji music, had remained silent until now.

The new video, though delivered in song, appears to serve as a subtle warning that the veteran singer hasn’t completely moved on from the incident.

While fans continue to react online, neither party has issued an official statement.

Nollywood actress and filmmaker Genevieve Nnaji has fired back at online bullies who attempted to mock her age on social media. A troll on Twitter taunted her, saying, “You can’t defy the laws of nature” and sneered that her “youthful allure is finally waning.”

Nnaji responded to a troll with sarcasm, “It gets even worse; I’ll become so old that I’ll meet my maker. If I’m fortunate.” She acknowledged aging’s inevitability with humor, keeping the tone playful.

Another troll interjected, “Mummy, you’ve really aged,” to which Nnaji retorted, “Daddy, I wouldn’t wish that on you,” skillfully deflecting the jab.

Cubana Chief Priest Under Fire: Nigerian Music Criticized for Overemphasis on Wealth

A concerned music enthusiast, Awuzie Frankline, has expressed disappointment with the current state of Nigerian music, citing an overemphasis on wealth and materialism.

Frankline specifically criticized Cubana Chief Priest’s new song, arguing that its lyrics lack meaningful content, instead focusing on self-praise and boasts about wealth.

Ekwutosblog gathered that Frankline’s critique extends beyond Cubana Chief Priest, suggesting that many Nigerian musicians prioritize singing about money and riches over more substantial themes.

He nostalgically references iconic artists like Michael Jackson and Lucky Dube, who tackled socially conscious topics in their music.

While acknowledging that singing about success is not inherently wrong, Frankline argues that the prevalence of wealth-focused lyrics in Nigerian music has become excessive.

He commends Peter of P-Square for offering a refreshing alternative with his song “Winning.” Frankline’s commentary sparks a larger conversation about the role of music in society and the responsibility of artists to promote positive and meaningful messages.
