The 45-year-old artist pointed out that in earlier times, musicians typically didn’t stay active in the industry for extended periods.

During an appearance on the Adesope live show, Rudeboy discussed the challenges of juggling family responsibilities with a music career.

“In the old ways of doing music, by now people like us suppose don retire,” he said.

“There’s always a time for everything in life. Things will always happen. If you are a celebrity and you think people will always see you like an angel, trust me you’re not going anywhere. There are times that something would be against you. It’s always like that.

“Every top artist has had their share of criticisms and scandals. Even the up-and-coming ones, too, will suffer the same fate someday. It’s a normal thing [in the entertainment industry]. But what matters is your personality and how you handle issues.”

Rudeboy rose to fame in the 2000s as one half of the P-Square duo alongside his twin brother, Peter Okoye, who goes by the name Mr. P.

The pair originally split in 2016 but reunited in 2021. However, in August 2024, Rudeboy announced that P-Square had disbanded once again after Peter accused him and their older brother, Jude Okoye, of mishandling the group’s finances.
