The multiple award-winning duo of Paul and Peter Okoye, otherwise known as PSquare announced today, that they’re staging a major ‘album concert’ for their fans and followers based in Nigeria.
In anticipation of the release of their fifth studio album, the bestselling Nigerian pop singers are set to put up the performance of a lifetime; working with a carefully-selected team of dancers, choreographers, musicians and back-up acts.
A spokesperson for the duo tells us they are working day and night to ensure the forthcoming album not only surpasses all expectations, but also to make sure the big-bidget concert is a winner by kilometres.
Other acts that have held solo concerts at The Eko Hotel, since it opened for business last year are 2Face Idibia and Dbanj (and the Mohits crew). Psquare follows in this growing tradition; and there are unconfirmed reports Paris-based Asa is also contemplating her own gig for this same venue.
A joint performance by King Sunny Ade and Ebenezer Obey in 2010 failed to hold despite huge anticipation and media frenzy.
Meanwhile Psquare’s rep tells us ‘The countdown to the album release officially kicks off with this concert, billed to hold in July’.
Tentatively the album will contain 10 to 13 songs. Two singles will be released in a matter of days.
The Psquare Concert will be held at the the new Expo hall of Eko Hotel and Suites on Saturday, July 30, 2011.
In their successful career, P Square have released four very successful albums; Last Nite, Get Squared, Game Over and Danger.
