Talent runs in the Okoye's family. Peter Okoye just took to Instagram to share a copy of his elder brother Jude Okoye's 1995 hit album.
This is not news but a lot of people don't know that Jude was the first star in the family before retired and started managing PSqurae. In 2011 interview with Vanguard, Jude Okoye talked about hitting it big as a rap artist in 1995...
It all started in 1994, when I developed interest in movie production. It was about the period the Nigerian home video industry had just started with production like of Living In Bondage. I had made a movie way back in Jos then.
In 1996, I ventured into music because some of my friends were in it. After a stint with a group, I went solo. I wanted to come out as soon as possible because I didn’t believe in taking things easy by then.
I released my first rap album in 1995 in Jos. It contained the hit track which was a remix of then Chakademus and Pliers song ‘Mother she wrote’ done in Hausa. The song made me a local superstar.
