Rudeboy, one half of the popular music duo Psquare, has expressed frustration with the current generation’s obsession with comparison and societal pressure.
In an Instagram post, he lamented that everything today revolves around comparison, class, level, and maturity, which he believes is unnecessary and stressful.
Rudeboy’s exact words were: “Aswear dis generation na mad people full am!! Haba!! Everything na comparison, class, level, maturity, bla bla bla… And na mumu go still listen to this poor mentality psychopaths, then come go put themselves under pressure. Like wtf!!!”
According to Rudeboy, the constant comparison and competition among young people is “madness” that leads to undue pressure and stress. He criticized those who enable this mentality, calling them individuals with “poor mentality” who push others into living under unnecessary pressure. Rudeboy urged his followers to stay true to themselves and avoid trying to impress others, promoting individuality and self-acceptance.
The musician’s comments come as his twin brother, Peter Okoye, announced the disbandment of their music group Psquare. Peter stated that there’s no longer a Psquare, as he’s focused on his own career, while Jude Okoye and Paul Okoye (Rudeboy) will continue as the new Psquare. Rudeboy’s words have sparked a conversation about the pressures faced by young people today and the importance of self-acceptance.
