Soundcity TV replies Peter Okoye

In a statement titled 'What has Soundcity ever done for P-Square?' which they shared on their website a few minutes ago following Peter Okoye's outburst on Twitter today, (read here) the music station said they stopped airing PSquare's music video since January this year & explained why. Read below
For 10 Years, @SoundcityTV has been a huge supporter of #PSquare and the #PSquare brand, right from their 1st music video to the last video released in 2014. Most of their videos got massive airplay on @SoundcityTV than any other music channel.
@SoundcityTV viewers sometimes complain about the dominance of #PSquare videos on the channel & charts. We were a huge supporter and gave everything to their works.

We have assisted the #PSquare brand, toured with them over Africa at our expense. Gave them ad-spots for their events / projects. Gave them prime time slots for their videos and included them in our array of Programmes / programming.

We invited #PSquare to one of our annual events last December 2014 and they insisted we pay a certain amount of money. We reasonably asked, what is the least we can offer?; this was us foregoing the fact that we had invested a lot in #PSquare’s career as music talents / artistes & entertainers.

The feedback was, “WHAT HAS SOUNDCITY EVER DONE FOR PSQUARE? TELL ME ONE THING SOUNDCITY HAS EVER DONE FOR PSQUARE” (Jude Okoye, Manager).

While we understand that this is business, there is also room for special consideration. Saying our TV brand has never done anything for #PSquare was quite damning. Clearly, there was no need to argue with their decision and reasoning. We decided to stop ‘doing anything’ with/for #PSquare, since our 10years of supporting the group meant nothing to them. We assumed our relationship was a mutually beneficial one, but clearly one-sided.

Ultimately, #PSquare music videos stopped airing on @SoundcityTV since January 01, 2015. Soundcity reserves the right to air music videos on our cable / satellite or terrestrial platforms.

Overall, we wish the duo the best in their endeavours. @SoundcityTV will keep airing works of the best and upcoming Nigerian artistes, and also, the best #African artistes to the world, especially nurturing their talents from inception till they become huge megastars and international superstars.
Thank you.

    4. You see, this very action of soundcity is the very reason why we don't make progress in Africa. I can't believe that soundcity proudly released this statement. So you expect psquare to do a free show for you yet you charge people gate fee to come and watch your show. Chai #SMH.

      You played their songs and so what??? Didn't you lay it because they were famous and would attract viewers to your foolish channel???? Would you have played their songs if they were up coming artists with no fan base. Aren't you the same people milking up coming artist just to play their music video??

      You didn't make psquare nothing!!!! You just saying this to play with sentiments of Nigerians that can't reason beyond their noses and poor out their frustrations on celebs( as if they are the cause of their poverty). Shame on you soundcity!! As you can see psquare is doing fine without you. We didn't even notice until Peter gave u guys 2minutes of fame

      That said, Jude was wrong to say dey haven't done nothing for them but the truth remains that this is business n thus no sentiments.
      Scity played their songs for free becos they had to,
      Psqr was already a brand n sound city had to play popular songs to get pple to tune in.
      They charge up n coming artists wickedly for very little airplay so pls don't come here saying u were doing psqr a favor cos it was mutually beneficial.
      Back to event ish,
      Am sorry but even MTV can not expect Beyonce to make an appearance for free simply cos they ve bin playing her songs over the years so suck it up.
      Peter grow up,u made ur point the 1st time,3 extra tweets weren't necessary.

    1. FYI, the dance thing is sponsored 100% by Glo. It might be PSquare's idea or initiative but the group might not be spending a dime, Glo is footing the bill. So I don' t think they are, from their own 'pocket' giving back to the society yet. PS: No hard feelings,these guys are a snob, snub, so full of themselves, saucy and arrogant. A friend of mine sometime this year had a personal experience with one of the duo, I tell you, that experience was not pleasant. My friend promised himself never to have anything to do with the PSquare brand again as he was humiliated and treated so badly. Seriously, they need to learn how to be humble and do a whole lot of work on their public image.

  72. Hmmm, interesting. Though I'd have expected Soundcity to be the bigger party here by continuing in their support - tho' P2 & coy. would never have gotten the message that way - I believe Jude would definitely say something like that clearing @Loius O KinGs' doubts. Reason: I had spoken with a member of the Square Records team [name withheld] last year on a business proposal and without even knowing what it was about blurted, 'we are not interested...'. And guess what, same response from Phyno's manager sometime later, a few months actually. It made made me think, is it an 'O Set' thing? No hard feelings though... their market is on board so feeling so is allowed! That is why Toni Kan's damning article posted on TheNet.NG on artiste [da]managers basically being a**holes resonated with me, for some of them anyway.

  78. @ ikenna, if they started their career before soundcity nko? were they made before tv stations started airing their music and brought them into limelight? that is the problem with all these celebrities. before they become popular and rich, they go about begging tv stations such as soundcity and others to play their songs but once they become succesful, they tell those stations who have helped 'they have not done anything for them.' did soundcity collect millions of naira from them to play their songs every day and every week? asking Psquare to perform at soundcity event is not too much for psquare to do even if they perform for just 30minutes, its ok. its a way of saying thank you for suporting us, at worst they (psquare) ask for 'fuel money' though they are rich and can afford it. so grow up. remember, getting to the top is not the issue but remaining at the top is the problem. what they did to soundcity, am sure they will do it elsewhere, time will tell. all i know is P square should beware of Jude.

  84. Do partners stop business relationships because of momentary (maybe hurtful) comments?
    Did soundcity express their dissatisfaction with the comment to the #Psquare brand and not apologised to?
    Does Chris Brown and co perform for mtv base and co for free because they air their music videos?
    Does the 'punishment' seem commensurate for the 'offence'?
    Was the soundcity event free for the audience?
    Can radio stations also seek free shows because they play artists' music?

    Sometimes, we make ordinarily simply matters complicated by our handling of them. Good communication and interpersonal relationship skills could have solved this problem. When one party lacks these skills, the other MUST NOT as well. Some comments do not come out good during conversations, we must learn not to pick on them. Patience remains a virtue especially when modesty in speech is lacking. Imbibing both modesty and patience would help our relationships grow in fruitfulness and mutually beneficial partnerships.

    Jude Okoye was wrong to have made the alleged statement, but soundcity was even 'wronger' (excuse my french) to have reacted the way they did.

    Let us all strive to help each other to grow.

  92. Y'all shoulf stop saying they are now rich like it's enough to acquire dangote's house. Of 30million dollars. Listen No matter what you achieve never forget where you came from and those who supported you. Micheal who's their mentor helped people and when he became a debtor everyone was running up and down to see him bounce back. Even the ricj MJ died broke how much more many naija artist who invest anyhow and later end up like Ma*** F****k...

    SC followed up on your asses.

    I'm glad they found a way to punish you guys. And dont pretend it dont hurt we can tell it does. Oh but it has to. Its SC.

  100. Please, let us reason with our brains. Soundcity makes money from adverts and pay TV subscriptions. I bet all those years claiming to support P Square they are making money on the side. Now they want P Square to grace their event for free even though it might have been a commercial event.

    P Square are not charity singers, They've worked very hard to be where they are today.

  103. One question. What has soundcity done for Rihanna? So because you play her songs you want some credit in her success. You play their songs cos the songs are good and playing the best songs get people to watch your station. do you think I want to watch a station that won't play a good song because it has issues with the artist?

  106. I wish I could do this without hiding under anonymity, but my career is quite important right now as I don't have as much money as Psquare. Soundcity are the most ungrateful station in the world and I am not surprised Psquare asked for money. When Oga Tajudeen was still having programme on other stations e.g Laugh Pattern and comedians invest their talents into the programme, he has forgotten. Now, you approach them for media support and they ask for money forgetting that we are all aiming for a greater height. I have heard of them demanding for tables at comedy shows and specific number of ushers to serve only their tables and huge amount of money, pretending not to know how costly it is to break even when you invest in shows without sponsors. I laugh at Soundcity as their bad behaviour has seen the best of their staff left and their viewers turned fans of HipTv. Some of us actually prayed that nemesis will catch up with them. The day HipTv starts being unreasonable, God will consider our combined efforts put into their success and bring them down. Linda, please don't just post this as a comment, I beg you, but let people read as a response. I know they will insinuate this to an innocent person, but at least they will know their wrong is catching up with them. A lot of entertainers are not happy with them.

  107. Buh let the truth be said... how can jude ask such question? thats too bad now, we all know that soundcity has tried for nigerian artiste... we are all aware when they started... the hype and all that... jude should have atleast insist on the charge... if he doesnt want to cut it down.. he shouldnt have make such comment... its wrong!!!

  108. So bcos psquare charged soundcity their normal fee and they couldnt afford it they decided not to air their songs anymore ... Unbelievable .. this shows how classless soundcity really is ... I cant imagine bigger brands lyk mtv and trace doing such .. its such a shame

  109. Who is the idiot typing in capital letters??. A real moron.

  110. This is supposed to be a symbiotic relationship where everyone benefits. Soundcity must have benefitted from airing PSquare videos same with Psquare from the coverage soundcity gives them.
    So right now i know which station not to switch to if i want to watch the latest Psquare video. I blame both parties because this type of relationship requires compromise from both end. Right now they are big in their right so no one needs the other. perhaps when Psquare begins to decline or Soundcity goes the way of Naijeze then they will both seat at the table and discuss.

Y'all talking rubbish, for d anonymous that said he or she is rich, and that p'square dem are not, u r an ass, I guess u can't even feed ya self, if u r rich hope u r d richest in Nigeria, and for y'all hitting d blame on P2 who told u guys dt souncity air videos for free, do u know how much they collect both 4rm upcoming artiste too, like they air p2's videos for free too. Mehn! Business is business, no 1 is got to be cheated. Like a lot of us here are rich too n we do business. So we know how things works. #teampsquare forever. If u think that being a celeb is easy try to be one and keep checking ur BP level. Thanks

  116. Sound city no longer playing p-squares music! Bad for them! Not sure how p-square would be affected. Surely a new music TV station is coming up soon. Sound city will surely have compatetors soon. Going through the comments reminds me how divided Nigeria as a country is. An average Nigeria is a bigot!

  117. That rude Jude will ruin PSquare
    He has always misjived and misrepresented the guys. He's living on his younger ones, yet misrepresenting.
    Recently, he engaged in an outburst ageing a company whose owner has supported them for almost a decade

    He needs a lesson in Managing Success

  120. Firstly Psquare have done a lot in the society, not everyone give to the society and bring in all the news outlet to showcase that. Secondly if soundcity were to bring in chris brown for the same show won't they pay his normal charges cos the play his song on their station? All these crazy show promoter pay more to bring international artiste and want to pay peanut for out great musician... well Fuck soundcity we got HipTv, Mtv base and Trace to watch

  121. I do not think the management of Soundcity wanted the duo to perform pro bono. Rather they wanted some discount which is the normal practice between artistes and media owners. I had cause to interact with the boys and I can testify that the boys are well behaved and highly cultured. The problem is that of management. Jude lacks the attitude and the desired finesse required of a word class artiste manager. Toni Kan had once written about how some artiste managers cut short the career of their artistes. An example of another idiotic and unreasonable artiste manager is 9ice's former manager,Dehinde. His arrogance is responsible for 9ice's struggling career today.
    Moving forward, Soundcity should continue to support the duo and other Nigerian artistes and the reward will come soon. And as for Jude,please learn to be civil in dealing with people. 'Pride comes before a fall'.

  124. I'm sure psquare wasn't the only artist invited to the soundcity event, y then were they the only one that had a problem with soundcity. That jude is a rude and arrogant leech.
    Even though it seems unproven but if I were soundcity, I'd have done the same.
