One half of iconic music duo, Paul Okoye, popularly known as Rudeboy, has publicly accused his twin brother and former bandmate, Peter Okoye (aka Mr P), of stealing his song.
This accusation follows the group’s third breakup earlier this year, with tensions resurfacing after Mr P released a new track titled “Winning.”
Taking to Instagram, Rudeboy alleged that he originally wrote and recorded “Winning” with a specific producer, only for the same producer to re-record it with his brother, Peter.
In his post, Rudeboy expressed frustration, saying that his twin had copied his song word for word despite his original version being intended for an album release next year.
Rudeboy also revealed he had submitted six songs to Psquare’s management, only to find his work allegedly being used without permission.
Expressing his dissatisfaction with the way things were being handled, he vowed to take matters into his own hands if necessary.
He wrote, “Song title: Winning. “Written and sang by Rudeboy. Produced by the same producer.
“Now how come? Now am I supposed to release another version? Mr Producer, your case is for another day.
“Just a simple thing: Bring 6 songs, let me bring 6 songs. I Submitted 6 songs to the so-called management. Why re-singing my own song? word for word. Song that was supposed to be in my album next year, June.”
In a follow-up post, he issued a stern warning to the management and anyone else attempting to replicate his songs.
He wrote, “The days of manipulation are over!!
“And to the management, make I hear any song wey na only me sing, I go release the original version. Music is not that hard!”
