P-Square Inspired My Music Journey – Flavour

Popular Nigerian singer Chinedu Okoli aka Flavour has made a revelation.

According to him, the iconic duo P-Square inspired his music journey.

He spoke during an appearance on the ‘In My Opinion’ podcast.

Flavour recalled a night he was performing live when he was asked to hand over the microphone upon the arrival of Peter and Paul Okoye, better known as P-Square.

He described watching in awe as the duo took the stage and performed their hit song ‘Temptation’, sending the crowd into a frenzy. “The place was electrified,” Flavour said, highlighting their stage presence and unique sound.

He said, “I was playing and immediately P-Square came in, the manager said ‘Hello, get off that thing!’ I switched off and passed the microphone, went somewhere and sat down. Girls were saying ‘wow wow wow’ and Paul of P-Square took the microphone with his voice and just sang ‘This na temptation’, everywhere scattered. So I was like ‘na the same music these people dey do, me dey here with una, una shout like this for me’. I was so cold, I was just watching, they did their thing. When they left, the manager turned and said ‘oya!’ then it started to occur to me that these guys, the difference is they create their own music, they make a sound and go to the studio and record and that’s how it’s done, and you are just a music man. So, how do I switch from music man to an artist? That was the difficult part of it, and I thought it was going to be easy because I could play, I could sing…but now to create your own sound, where are you going to start from?”
