In addition, Portable has once again grabbed headlines by announcing a substantial increase in the cost of his services. The artist, who recently garnered attention for his activities during a visit to the UK, surprised many with the revelation of his updated rate card.
In a recent Instagram post, Portable declared that he would be departing from his previous fee of N5 million for shows, skits, or features starting in the new year.
This announcement has sparked discussions and reactions within the music industry and among fans, as Portable’s decision to revise his pricing strategy attracts attention and curiosity.
Portable’s unexpected announcement of a significant increase in his service fees followed a cancelled booking for a show at a celestial church. This incident seems to have influenced the artist’s decision to reevaluate his pricing strategy.
