Rema Credits P-Square For Setting The Bar, Says They Were First Nigerian Artists To Fly Private Jets
Afrobeats star Rema has given a major shoutout to Nigerian music legends P-Square, crediting them for paving the way in luxury and success for Nigerian artists.
In a post shared by @african.folder, Rema stated that P-Square were the first Nigerian artists to fly private jets, calling it a milestone that inspired the current generation.
The post featured photos of Peter and Paul Okoye, with an inset image of Rema and a private jet, highlighting the connection between the old and new waves of Afrobeats.
P-Square dominated the African music scene in the 2000s and early 2010s with hits like “Bizzy Body”, “Personally”, and “Alingo”. During their peak, the duo were known for their lavish lifestyle, international tours, and being among the first Nigerian acts to operate at a global pop-star level.
Rema’s comment has since sparked conversations online about legacy and influence in Nigerian music. Fans agree that P-Square set a standard for branding, stagecraft, and business that many artists today are still chasing.
The “Calm Down” hitmaker is one of the biggest Afrobeats exports right now, and his recognition of P-Square shows how much the pioneers still mean to the new generation.
Neither Peter nor Paul Okoye has publicly responded to Rema’s remarks yet, but the post has already racked up over 3,000 likes and dozens of comments within hours.
