TWO of Nigeria’s biggest hip hop acts,
Peter and Paul Okoye of the Psquare fame, as well as Davido, have been
nominated alongside some of Africa’s most successful entertainers in the
Namibian Annual Music Awards.
The artistes were nominated alongside
South Africa’s AKA in the Pan African Artiste category. Also nominated
in the same category are Roberto (Zambia), and Heavy K (South Africa).
Nominated in the Best Album of the Year
category are Ann Singer (Bulletproof), Big Ben (Back to the Basics),
Chikune (In With the New), Exit (Black is Boss) as well as Freeda
(Chronicles)
In recent times, the duo of Peter and
Paul has been enmeshed in controversies surrounding the direction their
joint career should take. While Peter wants to pursue a solo career, his
twin brother Paul wants them to maintain the status quo.
However, in a recent move, it was
revealed that the brothers have come to a compromise. While the Psquare
brand remains, the brothers have also decided to pursue solo careers.
Peter now goes by the stage name, Mr P while his brother bears the
moniker, Rudeboy.
