” No More PSquare ”, Paul Okoye Confirms Split

Paul Okoye, aka Rudeboy, has confirmed that the music group PSquare has split up for the second time.

In an interview with City FM, Lagos, he revealed that the split was due to creative differences and personal issues.

Rudeboy denied claims that he belittled his brother Peter’s role in the group, saying he was wrongly accused of saying he was the singer and Peter was the dancer.

He explained that Peter told him he was no longer interested in the group and didn’t want to make it public.

Rudeboy also mentioned that they had different visions for their music, and he wanted to share creative responsibilities equally.

However, it didn’t work out, leading to the split.

“The plan of our coming back together was going to produce a lot of hit albums. But as it is now, I’m just focusing on Rudeboy. Trust me, it is not everything that I would want to say.

“I was being accused of saying that he [Peter] was the dancer and I’m the singer. I know whenever we go to the airport, people ask are you a singer or a dancer? I didn’t know it was touching him. But I know there was a time we came together and said, ‘don’t allow this thing get to you, you should be proud of what you’re doing. That’s the role you’re playing.’

“We have a song we did with T.I, ‘Eja Jo’. That was when the issue started. Till today, that song is still on 3 million views because people didn’t hear the PSquare’s voice that they are used to.

“When we came back together, because I didn’t want the issues that happened before, I told my brother to show himself, let us be involved in the creative process together. I told him we should share who carries the tracks equally but still it wasn’t working.

“The new PSquare was peaceful. I needed the past mistakes not to repeat themselves. But then again he [Peter] said he’s no more doing [no longer interested]. In fact, he told me in the face that he wants to quit. I asked if we could make it public and he refused. But what will happen when I go solo? People will call me the bad person. That’s why I’m speaking up now.”
