About P-Square:
The history of the Nigerian music industry will not be complete without the chapter of the group P-SQUARE. P-square has maintained the TOP POSITION on the chart of all research groups. They have defied the odds, weathered the storm and re-written the history of the Nigerian music industry; they have proven that there is a difference between an artist and a musician. Arguably, P-SQUARE remain the most popular Nigerian artiste internationally. It is generally concluded that the pair PAUL & PETER OKOYE remain one of the greatest symbol of Nigerian entertainment industry alongside legendary Afro beat icon Fela. Setting records and re-writing history is what the duo are recognized for.
P-SQUARE remains the only artiste to attain platinum status with their past three albums including the latest album titled Danger. The album ,was released on the 15th of September 2009, and sold one million copies in the first eight days after its release.
P-SQUARE’s entry into the Music Industry started during their school days at St. Murumba College Jos. They formed a dancing group called SMOOTH CRIMINALS and danced and mimed to Michael Jackson's, M.C. Hammer's and Bobby Brown's songs. The group existed for about 5 years. Peter, Paul and two other friends (Michael and Melvin) later formed an Acapella Group called MMPP. The group was unable to withstand the test of time so it disintegrated leaving behind the two Ps - Peter & Paul now known as P-SQUARE.
P-Square's debut album titled LAST NITE was released in 2003 and it was recorded to have sold out, thereby making P-Square a household name in Nigeria music cycle. With hits singles such as Kolo, Igbedu and senorita, the boys stormed the airwaves like a cyclone and won the hearts of many both at home and in the Diaspora. They did not only win the hearts of music enthusiastics, they also held them spellbound with their electrifying stage craft. In July 2005, P-SQUARE independently released its second album titled GET SQUARED and the first collection of their music videos in Nigeria.
