This group has grown over the years to become a phenomenon in the African Entertainment sphere at large.
Despite their rift that is no longer a news to the entire world, many people find it difficult to believe Psquare (Peter & Paul Okoye) can go in their different ways for these reasons;
1. They are brothers:
Psquare, which has Peter and Paul as its members aren't just
a boy band or group of friends, these guys are blood brothers. They aren't even
just brothers but twins and it even gets better identical twins. After 2001
when they rose to prominence, it took fans years to be able to differentiate
both of them. The resemblance isn't just in the physique but even in their
voices, Yes! it's that cool. Friends quarrel and go their separate path but
twins don't, they fight, settle, but going their separate ways? It just doesn't
happen.
2. They are a super brand:
Never in the history of modern music in Nigeria have we had a
brand like the Psquare group. These guys represent a talent that is yet to be
outshined. Let's look at it this way, in this part of the world, a set of twins
is like a prized possession and they bring good luck, so when you have twins
making good music, every corporate entity would want to tap into it.
Since the emergence of Psquare, they have gone to become brand
ambassadors for different companies. If they go their separate path and become
an individual act, they would become just like the regular day to day artist
that we already have and that would have defeated the purpose.
3. They compliment each other:
If you watch closely every video Psquare has ever made, you would
see that they just don't sing together as a group, they understand each other.
Their chemistry isn't unnoticed. When Paul isn't singing and Peter dancing,
they are both interchanging roles which they do so effortlessly. Even at their
concerts, you can't help but admire how they help each other all through, even
if they make errors, just because they have been together for a long time and
they understand themselves, they scale through bringing out the best of them.
4. Breaking up would lead to
more bad blood in the family:
There have been speculations that the feud between these brothers
started the moment they started having individual families. Even the subs that
they both have been throwing around surmounts to the fact that the rift is
family based. Now if these guys go solo, it would only get worse. The rivalry
would be legendary as there won't be any bond to ease out any tension. It would
affect their wives and even children who are too young to grow up with malice
embedded in them.
5. The fans won't just allow them:
Psquare has a dedicated fan base. These fans are crazy over them
and won't allow them to split and forget about their legacy. Fans will cry and
beg if they have to.
