For every success one sees in the open most times is usually perfected in the spiritual realm and that is the case of the duo of Peter and Paul Okoye popularly known as Psquare.
Their success story in the Nigerian music industry started in 2001 when they won the “Grab the mic” competition after which their debut album title last nite was released. Barely 3months after the release of their debut, they got nominated as “Most Promising African Group Kora Awards and won the 2003 Amen Awards for “Best R&B Group”.
In 2005, Psquare released their second album title Get Squared and produced mindblowing videos that held #1 position on the MTV Base Chart for weeks.
The group has performed along side international artiste like Akon, SeanPaul , Ginuwine etc
In 2007, they release Game Over album which sold 8million copies world wide after which they followed it up with Danger album in 2009 making it their fourth studio album which also came out to be a hit.
Psquare has won numerous Awards both Local and International i.e HipHop World Awards 2006,They carted away 4 Awards, “Album of the year” for Nigerian music Awards 2006, “Best DUO or Group”for channel O music video Awards 2007, MTV African Music Awards 2008 and 2009 for “Best Group” With the most recent one Kora all African Music Awards where they won Artiste of the year with a whopping sum of $1Million Dollars. They’ve also been nominated for “MOBO” Awards and BET in the past.
So many people have been wondering how this superstar go about it in making hit after hit in the industry were there is stiff competition. But they finally reveal at their House Warming/Birthday Party held last year that they do fast and pray for a period of a month before releasing any of their album. Which I think apparently pays for them.
For the aspiring celebrity wannabe hoping and working tirelessly for a success story like P-Square, I think this is a great tip for you and for P-Square keep on soaring like a bird in the sky.
