Afrobeats superstar, Davido, has revealed that iconic music duo P-Square played a significant role in inspiring his musical journey.

Speaking in a recent interview with the BBC, the singer recalled proudly talking about Peter and Paul Okoye while he was in school, describing the duo as an example of how African artistes could attain global recognition.

Davido said P-Square’s international collaborations and connections with renowned global stars strengthened his belief that African musicians could compete successfully on the world stage.

“P-Square inspired me. I used to tell my friends in school about how they were two African artistes who had a song with Snoop Dogg and were friends with Kanye West,” he said.

The ‘Unavailable’ crooner noted that seeing P-Square break barriers internationally motivated many young Nigerian artistes, including himself, to dream bigger.

P-Square, made up of twin brothers Peter and Paul Okoye, are widely regarded as one of Africa’s most influential music groups.

Their success helped pave the way for the global rise of Afrobeats and inspired a generation of stars, including Davido, Wizkid and Rema. (The Sun)
