Mr P of P-Square has fired back at a social media user who questioned why he continues to make music at his age, suggesting it might be time for him to retire. The critic remarked that they did not understand why an "almost 50-year-old man" was still singing and advised retirement.
Defense from Media Personality
Media personality Do2tun came to Mr P's defense, pointing out that global stars such as Celine Dion, Shakira, Beyoncé, Busta Rhymes, Bruce Springsteen, and Lionel Richie remain active performers despite their ages.
Mr P's Response
Mr P later joined the conversation, thanking Do2tun for his support and insisting that the criticism is just another attempt to discredit him. He noted that critics have previously claimed he could not sing, could only dance, and lacked talent, but have now shifted to attacking his age after those narratives failed.
He also accused some of holding Nigerian artists to a different standard, highlighting that performers like Usher, Beyoncé, and Chris Brown are celebrated for doing the same things he does on stage.
No Regrets About Solo Career
The singer added that many of his critics are still upset about P-Square's breakup, stressing that he has no regrets about his solo career. Mr P revealed that he recently signed a multi-million-dollar five-year deal with an international distribution company covering three albums, declaring that his "solo journey" is one of the best decisions he has ever made.
"It's Mr P forever," he wrote.
