1 Big Craze the former producer of singer Paul Okoye has broken his silence following allegations of song theft.
Kemi Filani reported that the second half of Psquare had accused the producer of stealing his songs. He revealed that he had written and sung a song titled Winning, which was supposed to be produced next year. To his surprise, his twin brother, Peter Okoye, had released the same song by the same producer. Questioning how come, he wondered if he was supposed to release another version.
Paul made it known that the days of manipulation were over as he promised to release the original version of any songs of his that were being replicated.
Explaining what happened via his Instagram story, the producer said he had produced and recorded Winning for them in 2022. He said he sent stems to Psquare for mixing and mastering and he got played and left Lagos.
He questioned how that was his fault if Peter Okoye released the song as he wondered if he was the one managing Psquare.
“I produced and recorded ‘Winning’ for Psquare 2022.
I sent stems to Psquare 2022 for mixing and mastering. I got paid, and I left Lagos. Two years later, One Square released the song; How is that my fault?
Na me dey manage Psquare?”.
It is no longer news that Psquare has fallen out again because of the joint funds being diverted by their elder brother, Jude Okoye.
In an interview, Paul opened up on his relationship with his twin brother, recounting how Peter got him and their older brother, Jude Okoye, arrested by the commission in December 2023. Luckily for him, after a thorough investigation conducted by the commission, he was declared innocent of all the allegations levelled against him.
Addressing Paul’s interview, Peter debunked the claims as he stated that he only filed a petition with the commission against their elder brother after discovering he was diverting their money into a secret account which he shared with his wife. He made it known that he never called for the arrest of his twin brother.
He noted how Paul, rather than joining forces with him to reclaim their number one spot in the music industry, chose to team up with their elder brother, Jude Okoye, to marginalise and humiliate him. He further claimed that his twin brother has constantly disrespected him, his wife, his family, his talent, his ideas and more.
