Nigerian musician Portable has caused a stir on social media after openly calling out popular comedian and content creator Carter Efe during a recent livestream. The playful roast quickly went viral, sparking conversations and reactions across multiple platforms, with fans weighing in on the humorous exchange between the two entertainers.
During the livestream, Portable mocked Carter Efe’s noticeably lean appearance, jokingly comparing him to his own friend Kolu, who recently purchased a Honda, while questioning what Efe himself had achieved despite the high-profile attention and viral exposure he continues to receive. The musician did not hold back, reflecting on Carter Efe’s past and poking fun at his current situation in a candid and humorous manner.
Portable stated, “Carter Efe, you look very hungry and lean, you no dey see better food chop. Even my boy, Kolu has bought Honda. What did you buy despite Davido coming to livestream?” His comment highlighted the perceived contrast between Efe’s fame and the material achievements of others around him, amplifying the playful nature of the roast while still drawing attention to Efe’s public image.

He went further, contrasting Carter Efe’s present look with his 2023 appearance, when he was visibly heavier and seemingly thriving during his comedic career. Portable emphasized that Efe had previously appeared more successful and substantial both physically and in terms of his career presence.
“Your 2023 pictures, your videos… you big. Your head big, your body big. Big for nothing. Even you’re living big that time you were doing comedy. Now you think say na only just trend, wetin Taiye use trend wey blow am, Kehinde fit use am trend, e fit kill am. Carter Efe, you no see food chop. Your 2023 better pass your 2026, omo your 2026 worse o,” Portable added.

Many social media users shared their opinions on the dynamics between the two entertainers, while others commented on the realities of fame, financial success, and the fleeting nature of viral trends in the digital age.
