Timaya reflected on his past, acknowledging his reputation as a troublemaker and crediting his unconventional approach for his success.

 
Singer Timaya has opened up that he admires Portable.
 
According to him, the reason is because there are similarities between them.
 
Timaya spoke in a recent interview with Channels Television.
 
Timaya reflected on his past, acknowledging his reputation as a troublemaker and crediting his unconventional approach for his success.
 
He said: “That’s why I like Portable; the first time he came out, I told 2face about him on the way to Delta State. I said to him, ‘Have you heard that guy Portable?’ Zazu Zeh. That guy is just like me because I was a crazy guy.”

The singer acknowledged that while today’s Gen Z audience may see him as ‘unproblematic,’ they might not realise the wild side of his early career.
 
“These Gen Z’s don’t know now so sometimes when I talk, some people would be like Timaya is unproblematic. I just look at them like, if only they knew me. They say ‘Timaya minds his business’ and I say hmm. It’s now I have calmed down, I was crazy then. I was really really really crazy I was hot like fire but I think there’s growth. At the time it was a strategy for me,” he said.
 
He also addressed a rumor from his early career, clarifying that a reported negative encounter with military personnel was untrue.
 
According to him: “The story about me having a negative encounter with military men is untrue. Why would I get involved with them?

” I’m not trying to shade or disrespect anybody, but in whatever you do, you must apply wisdom or sense. 

“No matter how crazy I was, it was all a strategy, even though I was crazy. I blew in the industry because at the time everyone was singing love songs and I’m from the Niger Delta, so I didn’t come as a lover boy.”
