Meanwhile, Bella, whose real name is Akinbiyi Abiola Ahmed, earlier revealed that he paid a huge sum of money to free himself from the contract he signed with his former record label.

CorrectNG reports that the ‘Newborn Fela’ crooner was formerly signed to One World Global Records.

Bella said he paid N20 million to the management so that he could be released to be an independent artiste after spending just a year out of his 3-year contract.

According to the singer, he was being cheated by the label because they equally funded his music projects, but One World took a larger percentage of the earnings.

Speaking on Tea with Taymesan podcast, he explained that he would source for N500k as requested by the label and they in turn would bring N500k for production, promotion and other things that need funding.

However, when money starts coming from shows, streaming, endorsement and other areas, they would take 70 percent and give him 30 percent.

Bella said he was not comfortable with that arrangement so he hired a lawyer and bought himself out of One World Global Records.

“Portable – Let’s Promote Afrobeats and Leave Amapiano for South Africans”

“Portable Urges Nigerian Artists to Prioritize Afrobeats Over Amapiano After Grammy Outcome”

In response to South African singer Tyla’s Grammy win over Nigerian artists like Burna Boy and Davido, controversial artiste Habeeb Okikiola, known as Portable, advises Nigerian musicians to focus on promoting Afrobeats instead of Amapiano. Portable emphasized the importance of valuing Nigeria’s genre and suggested that sticking to Afrobeats would enhance Nigeria’s chances of winning international awards. He referenced the evolution of music styles, mentioning the prevalence of shaku shaku before the emergence of Amapiano. Portable asserted that Amapiano belongs to South Africans and cautioned that pursuing it wouldn’t lead Nigerians to Grammy success.

Some comments from social media users:

@lappoosky: “Even when Tyla won the award, they still played a Fela song.”

@Macy_Macy0: “After South Africa and Nigeria play, then we’ll decide this one.”

@Mahasmaan: “Brother, unlike Nigerians, South Africans don’t try to claim or imitate Afrobeats, we consume them raw. Nigerians are suffering from main character syndrome, you wouldn’t stand watching an SA genre shine!”

Here are some additional comments:

@HappinessUgboma: “It’s true what Portable said. We don’t value our Afrobeats, yet we want to use it to win a Grammy. It’s impossible. But when we use our own, it will go a long way and stand tall.”

@MaziLeeTweets: “I’ve been suggesting this: let’s leave Amapiano to them and focus on our Afrobeats. Nigerian producers should return to the drawing board and create fresh, distinctive sounds. I have confidence in SARS on this matter.”

@Sami011y: “The funny part is Amapiano isn’t the popular genre in SA. House music is more popular than Amapiano. Amapiano was just a smoke screen to generate attention for SA music! West Africans must stick to our Afrobeats because we sound very funny doing Amapiano!”
