Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola Badmus, known as Portable has criticised his colleague, Mavo, describing him as “untalented.”

Speaking in a video broadcast via his social media page, Portable alleged that the Shakabulizzy crooner relies heavily on auto-tune to make music.

Sharing a clip of Mavo’s live performance, the Zazu hitmaker claimed that judging by the performance, he isn’t a talented musician.

Portable also claimed that his signees were more talented than Mavo.

He said, “Mavo uses auto-tune. I’ve been seeing some celebrities associating and collaborating with you. You now went to do a live band. Is that how to perform? Even my signees sing better than you.

“Your live performance is shambolic. That’s not how to use a live band. I blame the superstars who overlook real talents and support overhyped wack artists.”

Mavo is yet to respond to Portable’s criticism.
