Produced by 2tuponthebeat, the song references the singer’s agility and quick thinking, as seen in the viral video where he jumped over a gate to evade arrest. The incident occurred on Tuesday, and after spending 24 hours in custody, Portable regained his freedom after meeting the bail conditions set for his release.
The new song “Spiderman” is a response to his recent arrest, with Portable hinting at his determination to continue chasing his dreams despite the challenges he faces. In a recent social media post, he wrote, “They chase me, I dey chase dream”.
Tuesday’s episode is not the first in Portable controversial diary.
Sometime in March 2023, the Ogun State Police Command arrested the famous singer for cursing and rough handling some men of the Nigeria Police Force in two video clips that went viral.
The police, during a probe of the incident, invited Portable, who refused to honour the invitation. Enraged by his audacity, the police issued a 72-hour ultimatum and subsequently arrested him.
In another development, the singer was also arrested by policemen in Ogun State and later arraigned on five counts bordering on alleged assault and stealing at the Ifo Magistrates’ Court.
He was remanded at the Ilaro Correctional Centre and later released after meeting his bail conditions.
