Popular video director, TG Omori, has reacted after he was called out by controversial Nigerian singer, Portable Omolalomi, for charging $50,000 for a music video.
Recall that Portable recently called out the popular music video director and cinematographer on social media for charging him a “ridiculous” fee for a video shoot.
The drama started when Portable reached out to Omori to shoot the visuals for one of his hit tracks, and he charged him $50,000 to get the work done.
However, Portable opined that Omori’s demand of $50,000 for the job was ridiculous and inquired as to whether he was going to film the video for a “ritualist.”
Portable went on to remind him that he was the same person who shot the visuals for his hit song “Zazu Zeh,” and he definitely didn’t pay up to $50,000.
Sharing screenshots of their chat on Instagram, Portable told Omori that he has many people who would be happy to do the job for him at an affordable price, but he wanted to give TG Omori a try.
Reacting to the call out, Omori in a now-deleted tweet informed Portable that ‘Zazu’ video was shot for free.
“Somebody tell Portable Zazoo was a free video, did it without ever mentioning a word. Bruh has a video and never knew how it came about but his calling me out for a discounted price.” He wrote.

daniel.regha__: Portable ur song ZaZoo Zehh is popular in the streets, but that’s not a hit song & d¤esn’t deserve a Headies award nomination, talk more of winning a Grammy; A “hit song” is music that can transcend time. If u win an award for ZaZoo, it will based on industry polit!cs. No shades.
iamayomartins: Nigerians and this Entitlement mentality. TG has a price because his videos are the best right now, the guy has gone international and he has his price! If you’re not willing to pay there are other videographers in the industry that can match your budget na it’s that simple. Nigerians will want to get the best service with shit money.
