I think the feud was inevitable, comparisons and insecurities were always going to take a toll on the group. I have they have experienced, learned and are moving forward. Cause their break up was really annoying, cause they're siblings so it hit different. I really enjoyed your documentary, your journalism is so good.👏
Aww, thanks so much for that heartfelt comment! 🙏🏽 I'm really glad you enjoyed the documentary and that my journalism style resonated with you.
You made such a great point - the constant comparisons and insecurities between Peter and Paul as siblings in the same group were clearly huge underlying factors. When you add fame, egos and money into the mix, a blowup was probably inevitable unfortunately.
But like you said, the key is that they've grown from it all. Their break up was super annoying at the time because they're family, so it just hit different seeing brothers feuding so publicly.
I have mad respect for them putting it all aside to reunite in 2021 though. Clearly there's a tight bond there that overcame the past dramas. Hoping they've really learned from it all as they move forward.
Thanks again for watching and for that insightful perspective! Your support means the world to me as I try to elevate long-form storytelling on RUclips. More hot content on the way, fam! 💯
I'm so happy RUclips recommended this video for me.
Please, I need these films; The first part of Living in Bondage, Glamour Girls and Rattle Snake for a Thesis I'm writing. I'll be very grateful if you can help. Thanks🙏🏿🙏🏿@@milorhilary
First time I fell in love with Nigerian music was P square, temptation was on repeat
Temptation was a Hit 💯💯
I really like everything about P Square. Am from Ghana🇬🇭 and I will be happy to meet them one day😢
I have never watched any video up to 20min secs by secs…i love how i was gripped to the video down till the end.
So Happy you enjoyed it boss. Means Alot to me... Hopfully my next video would be more Elevating... Thanks in Millions
You are a journalist!
Woah some of this clips are so hard to find. Well done!
Love your passion. Great research, great editing, very engaging!
Glad you enjoyed it!... Thanks 💯💯
I Miss them😢
I lost them since they got separated
Me wen no Dey allow my family hear word for Psquare songs
To the extent my father in his 70’s fell inlove with them and was praying they never separate
What a life
Now I don’t even bother about their new songs
I don’t want to compare any of them
I stick to the old ones🙌
I play them and I get healed✌️
Aww I can feel the heartbreak in your comment! P-Square's split must have crushed you as a diehard fan who grew up on their music bonding with family like your dad.
I totally understand not being able to bother with their new solo stuff and just sticking to those iconic classics that provided so much healing nostalgia. Those anthems will forever be cemented in Nigerian culture.
Thanks for sharing your personal story - it really drives home the deep emotional connection their fans had. Appreciate you watching and I'm sure your dad would love seeing their full journey documented too!
@@milorhilary unfurtunately my dad has gone to rest
He was part of a music band in his young days, he was an instrumentalist🥰
He loved good music
Each time I am playing any music, he filters it and tells me what he loved and what was missing
But for Psquare, everything was good to him
The voice, the dance, the beat etc
We are not even Igbo people so imagine the love
Nothing good last forever
Both my dad’s death and Psquare separation wound me badly😔
But it is well🙌
@@afeomotola2555 Aw man, I'm really sorry to hear your dad has passed away. 💐 But it warms my heart to know he was able to experience the joy and magic of P-Square's music before he went to rest.
The fact that he was a musician himself who could truly appreciate the artistry - the vocals, the choreography, the production - makes it even more special that P-Square resonated with him so deeply. And for him to love them that much as a non-Igbo person just shows you how transcendent and unifying their talent was.
I can only imagine the void left by losing two phenomenal presences in your life - your dad's guidance and P-Square's musical brilliance. Those inseparable bonds we form to art and the special people who introduce us to it can never be duplicated.
But you're right, nothing good lasts forever. We have to cherish those profound impacts while we can. The beautiful memories of dancing, singing, and feeling that pure joy with your dad will be a lifelong salve for the wounds. I'm glad my documentary could play a small role in commemorating the P-Square journey you held so dearly. It is well, sis. Thanks for sharing your story.
Im a Ghanaian and was in Junior High school when 'Get Squared' was released. A Nigerian classmate gave me the CD and I didn't want to give it back to him😂😂😂😂
That was when I became a fan and started hearing their music everywhere in Ghana
madooo, what year was it
@@milorhilary that was late 2006 to early 2007
@@exclick1 I dey tell you... omo that get squared season was crazyy...
The caption was psquare were never twins , but I end up watching different story ...
Content without creator 😂
It called click bait for a reason
Seriously rubbish
You are an excellent narrator bro. Well Done. I also appreciate the fact that you didn't take sides or judge any one of them.
Your narration melts my heart.You be the real GOAT 🐐
Appreciate you 💯💯.. More Vids on the way.. hope you've subscribed
Even though People would say that one danced better while the other was a better singer, I never knew the difference in the early days..... Get squared, senorita, etc. They both danced and sang well and to be honest, I preferred Paul's dancing in Senorita.... The exposed their differences and people started capitalising on their differences. For example, "Roll it" came and it was obvious that these two wanted to be different.
You're absolutely right. In the early days, it was impossible to distinguish between Peter and Paul's talents - they both sang and danced incredibly well on tracks like "Get Squared" and "Senorita."
However, as they grew more famous, their subtle differences got magnified. Fans started pitting them against each other - saying one danced better, the other sang better. You could see them intentionally trying to establish more distinct identities to stand out.
Those constant comparisons and capitalization on their discrepancies, rather than celebrating their diversity as a duo's strength, clearly bred unhealthy egos and competitiveness over time. An insightful take on how the seeds of their split were sadly sown.
Nah we F*ck up pass
You're right
The fans broke psquare up. They fed rudeboy's pride. And their musical carriers were tied together. There is one thing with losing one's glory, u never get it back.
I swear... Very well said
This is also why some fans who are malicious in social media deserve the wrath from God.
Yup, Paul let his pride get in the way.
What an inspiration!
The editing and narration is Top-Notch!
Bro thanks for this drop. Oil dey your head. No siding.
In family when elder bro refused to see different opinions and support the other, it's always like that.
Big up
This particular documentary deserve an award bro
Even crying whilst watching this video. I was and still love these guys. I love them soooooo much!
Pls n pls I still stands that P-square should come back and take over the music industry, bcos I know they are good and capable of everything, that all this yeye new artists in industry right now, I hv been crying for so long about P-square, let them come back.
Now I know the real reason behind their split. Frankly, if I were Peter, I would feel the same.
Well done bro for the hard work, very well detailed.
for sure, Thanks for tuning in 💯💯
Your narration skill is top-notch.
I wish I can subscribe twice, will surely watch the video more than 10 times.
I am a die-hard fan of P-square
🤣🤣 ayy thanks fam, you already know I had to narrate that P-Square gospel with the passion of a preacher! Doing it any other way would've been a crime against my Nigerian brothers.
You wan re-watch am 10 times? Sheesh, Abeg subscribe 10 times too while you're at it! These documentaries ain't cheap to make ya dig!
But forreal though, I appreciate a real one like you showing mad love to a die-hard fan's labor of love. Just promise to share this with all the other P-Square stans out there so I can cop me another crib in Lagos. More cultural gems coming soon, you already know the vibe!
P-Square are legends. Forget it. Not one bad song.
I love the both especially Mr p
I'm with you here mehn
Mr.P is also my favorite ❤
You sèe that Game Over album. Forgetam na World class! No musical album in the world comes close. The only album u can't skip a song. U must litsen from scratch to finish.
@Psquare please make something similar.

This was perfectly compiled and i love the story telling structure
Daddy Nomso, Thank You sir
You try big time!!!
This is one of the best videos I have been waiting for. P-Square was my best artist in the world.
Thanks for tuning in.. P-square is the GOAT no cap
Watching this video and realising that all these stories happened right before my eyes gave me goosebumps and made me shared tears. These guys has been coming for a very long time.❤❤❤😢
No be Small Long time ohhh.. thanks for tuning in
No one in Nigeria who don't like Psquare including my grandmother she use to ask me to put the music video of the twins brothers for her to watch she love their dance move rip granny.
Twins are gifted piple like dem a lot i have twin brovas the way people love dem.i feel.jealous. they are untouchable. They are like Dada. Albino
I'm Nigeria I don't like their songs
@@michaelstrong722 You don't know anything about music
@@Kingsleydavid507 that is my personal choice
I love this❤❤. Nice one
I'm glad you like it
The time these guys used to quarrel, new artists came and took their spot. A spot they could have easily maintained till 2024. Now dem be like upcoming. Jude as a first son did not try. He should have played neutral/peacemaker
They can still come back, but the fans need convincing. They need to consistently release a long series of good tracks, with no more controversy and Public squabbles. Then their story will have a successful Part 2.
would take alot, but won't be a bad try out
Bro, that's true, there should be a boundary between family and business.
And I believe Wizkid understand the music business better that's why he is still relevant till today
Absolutely💯💯
You no try bro....you smashed it.....excellent video. Even Paul & Peter liked the video. Welldone bro.....
Thanks, Appreciate it so much💯💯💯💯

Twins also have different talent. We can't all dance. Even the archangels in heaven do not have the same responsibility. Comparison is the Thief of joy.
N your brother's ooo bless to your brother's ooo God continue helping your brother's ooo in Jesus name
You try!😅
No doubts, I initially didn’t know the what the problem really was and there probably is more than meets the eye but this is an amazing piece of investigative reporting and documentary. To cap it all off, it was entertaining and I stayed glued all through.
It’s also impressive that you gave your opinion as to the series of events and how they individually must have contributed to what led to the split compared to all I saw before your video - one-sided reports.
This one is thorough!
This is whole and I hope we get more of these.
aGBA... Been waiting for you bro... Now i can go buy one bottle of HERO. and cool down... Appreciate this bro... meant alot...
Nostalgia!! Legends
Thanks for tuning in
Thank u for making this video not many tell good Nigerians stories especially about entertainment this video made me realize amapiano needs to go we need afrobeat back
This is a masterpiece, Netflix Standard. Did you edit the video yourselves?
Netflix Ko.. No dey whine me ohh
Nice video bro
Thanks for the visit
GREAT VIDEO
Thanks, Glad you enjoyed it.
Jude was Using Elder Brother Eye, to take Shares and control their Career business. Jude should’ve left the business for them once he figured out that they were old enough to run the entertainment Business.
Great Job 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you!! 😁
Nice work
Thank you! Cheers!
Omo I cried
Me two
I love then I swear
Thanks for tuning in
Good content!
Thanks 💯💯
Nice one bro
Thanks 🔥
Showing everyone of them have shared responsibility in any part whether for dancing, show management or song writing would have prevented them from this.
Who writes most songs for you, "Peter and Paul...we do everything together". Fullstop. The brand and business wouldn't have suffered. Anyway, some lessons are better learnt the hard way.
I love this documentary
Thanks for Tuning in... Big Thanks
I love rude boy for liking his brother that much... I'm more happier seeing brother liking each other... Rude boy thanks for showing strong bond to your elder brother 🎉🎉🎉
Nice narration and compilation.
But let me add that the clip would have been better if there was more information on the new and re-energized P-square of the past year or so with more clips of sold-out tours.
It appears as though the clip is " the rise and fall of p-square". But the caption of the video is "...:where are they now".They are rejuvenated, not fallen,I believe.
Social media and malicious fans' comments were predominantly what led to their ' break-up' then.
It would be nice for social media to present the "good energy" of the re-united p-square.And social media should promote healthy societal issues too.
You may consider this in your next presentation.
Love from a P-Square fan❤
This Reply is highly appreciated... Big ups for this...will surely look into all you've said
This video made me cry a little bit 😭
Sorry ohh
Psquare forever
Ever 💯💯
Beautiful 🌹💕
Many many thanks
I feel and still believe they agreed to split for 5yrs, business plan
Agreed?... How
Fingers crossed and waiting
Odogwu,, Respect💯
I love this
You're going far bro
Sharp🔥🔥🔥
Fantastic ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Family supposed to be supportive. When ever one take sides, it always hurt. The elder brother didn't see that.
💯💯
