they speak on the struggle before the fame
as well as their forthcoming 6th studio
album 'Double Trouble
Few people epitomise the grace to grass story in
the Nigerian music scene like P-Square. In a
revealing interview with Toolz on the Mid-day
Show on the Beat 99.9, Paul Okoye, one half of the
duo revealed that he used to be an electrician.
"I used to fix fans, boilers and electrical things" he
said "but there was no AC that time so I can't fix
that one" he joked.
The duo who were at the Beat FM to promote
their forthcoming album which drops on the 12th
of September reminisced on the old times before
they became the music sensation that they
currently are.
"Paul was an electrician, me I would climb the
tree in our school to steal the mangoes and sell. I
also used to gamble and the biggest gamble I took
was saying we should move to Lagos" Peter
revealed.
Speaking on married life, Paul admitted that he
has become more responsible since getting
married and this even affected him "artistically"
as he can no longer be as free as he used to be.
"I can't take a picture without a shirt now, I'll use
a tank top instead but that doesn't apply to Peter
sha!"
When quizzed on their widely publicised
quarrel and rumoured split earlier in the
year » , the brothers admitted that while they did
indeed have a misunderstanding, it was not unlike
the regular misunderstanding every sibling had.
They however reassured their fans that all has
been resolved now.
Explaining the different sound of their latest
single with TI "Ejeajo" » , the pop duo stated
that the change was deliberate because they didn't
want fans to be used to a particular sound from
them. They also urged fans to expect to be wowed
by their latest effort.
"We have a collabo with Don Jazzy titled
'Collabo', he didn't produce it, he just sang on it
and he killed it. We also featured Awilo and
Jermaine Jackson on the album. Also expect
about 5 songs like Beautiful Onyinye on this
album and a big concert next year" they revealed.
