Portable unveil forthcoming EP ‘Chosen One’ with teaser track
Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has announced the release of his upcoming extended play (EP) titled Chosen One.
Sharing a preview on his Instagram page, Portable teased one of the tracks from the project, sparking excitement among his fans.
The artwork for the EP draws inspiration from the viral ‘I am a Chosen’ trend, adding to the buzz surrounding its release. In the song, the *Zazoo Zeh* hitmaker highlights his financial contributions to both Christian and Islamic causes, confidently claiming these efforts will secure him a place in heaven.
The announcement has already sparked conversations across social media.
“I’ve been to church where they wear casual dress/ I’ve been to a white garment church/ I’ve attended Cherubim, rolled on the floor/ Even though you attend Celestial you may not become a celeb/ I am a glory of the celestial/ Be careful/ I’ve rang bell for seven churches/ I’ve attended seven churches/ I’ve been to seven mountains/ Shouted seven hallelujah,” he sings in a mixture of Yoruba and English language.
“I bought instruments for churches/ My life will be good/ God of Osoffa do not let me be hot by world arrow/ I’ve helped in the construction of churches/ I’ve helped provided light for churches and mosques/ I will make heaven.”
Portable shot to fame in December 2021 with his breakout single Zazoo Zeh featuring Olamide and Poco Lee.
