In the entire African continent, P-Square of Nigeria is the
highest paid Artiste in Africa both in performance fee, endorsement
contract fee, and album sells.
The duo are reported to handle most of their production/beat making in
house. The band has been faced with many controversies for their habit
of sampling
western songs and popular hits in their records. More pics to follow..
They have addressed
the issue many times in interviews as well as in the lyrics of their songs. Technically speaking, P Square does more in the line of reconstructing
the drum patterns, chord progressions or lyrics of the sampled songs as
against actually cutting parts of the song and directly sampling into
their production. This accounts for the largely electronic feel of their
sound.
P-Square are a Nigerian R&B duo composed of identical twin brothers Peter and Paul Okoye.
They produce and release their albums through Square Records. In
December 2011, they were also signed to Akon's Konvict Muzik label. In May 2012, they also signed a record distribution deal with Universal Music South Africa.
