Plane Stopper’:Portable turns KWAM1’s airport drama into new single

Portable never misses a moment. The street-pop star has announced a new single, Plane Stopper, inspired by the recent viral airport incident involving Fuji music legend King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall, popularly known as KWAM 1.

In an Instagram teaser that quickly lit up social media, Portable gave fans a taste of the track, and drew comments from celebrities like footballer Victor Boniface and comedian Nasboi. The song, rooted in Yoruba folk influences, sides with KWAM 1’s account that the disputed liquid in question was water, not alcohol.

Portable also tipped his hat to the Fuji icon’s “sharp reflexes” in dodging the wing of an incoming plane at the last second.

For anyone who has followed his career, this is classic Portable. He turns trending news, social issues, and even his own run-ins with the law into catchy, chaotic, danceable music. Earlier this year, he dropped Oni Reason just days after being released from detention in a defamation case involving another Fuji veteran, Saheed Osupa. Not long after, he announced an EP titled Most Wanted following an arrest warrant from Ogun State Police over an alleged assault on government officials.

His antics have often doubled as marketing campaigns. In 2024, he released the Chosen EP during the viral “I Am A Chosen” trend, and Spiderman after a clip surfaced of him scaling a fence to evade arrest over a luxury car he could not afford.

Still, his biggest hit since Zazzu Zeh came from crossing borders. A high-profile collaboration with British-Nigerian rapper Skepta on the track Tony Montana. That link-up inspired the EP Tony Montana of London, and later, Canadian Burger, after touring in Canada earlier this in 2025.

With Plane Stopper, Portable is once again proving that for him, every headline is a raw material, and every scandal is a studio session waiting to happen
