Nigerian street-hop artist Portable releases his latest single “Awon Bandit Tide.” He both performs and produces the track, which carries the signature energy of his previous work. The song arrives via his own record label, Zeh Nation. Portable, whose real name is Habeeb Okikiola, first exploded into the mainstream with the viral success of “Zazoo Zeh,” a track that featured Olamide and Poco Lee.
That song propelled him from local buzz in Abeokuta to national fame, defining his chaotic and unapologetic style. His career since has been a series of hits and headlines, solidifying his position as a dominant force in the street-hop subgenre. He built his Zeh Nation empire around this popularity, cultivating a loyal fanbase.

Portable’s music consistently generates significant conversation on social media and within the Nigerian music industry. “Awon Bandit Tide” is now available across all digital music platforms.
