Peter Okoye Reacts to Calls for Chris Brown Remix as ‘I Can’t Look Away’ Gains Momentum
Nigerian music star Peter Okoye, popularly known as Mr P of the former Psquare duo, has fueled excitement among fans after reacting positively to suggestions that American R&B superstar Chris Brown should jump on a remix of his latest single, I Can't Look Away.
The song, which was recently released, has continued to generate buzz across social media, with many music lovers praising its catchy sound and commercial appeal.
The conversation gained momentum when media personality Do2dtun took to X (formerly Twitter) to propose a high-profile collaboration involving Afrobeats star Davido and Chris Brown.
“If Davido wants to finish work, he should just summon Chris Brown to enter this @PeterPsquare ‘I Can’t Look Away’ song and do a remix … it’s over!
“It’s a jam Chris will easily nail: it should now have a full-on dance routine and video… damn!
“Imagination wants to finish me, but it’s possible,” he wrote.
Peter Okoye quickly caught fans’ attention when he responded to the post with hammer emojis, a reaction many interpreted as approval and openness to the idea.
The response immediately sparked excitement among supporters, who began imagining what a Chris Brown-assisted version of the track could sound like.
The positive reception of I Can't Look Away comes at a time when Peter has been expressing gratitude for the support he has received from fans. Just days ago, the singer shared an emotional message, admitting that he was overwhelmed by the love surrounding the new release.
Earlier this year, Peter also reflected on the sacrifices behind his success, sharing a photo of himself asleep in a recording studio at 3 a.m. He noted that such moments represent the unseen hard work that often goes into building a successful music career.
The singer has also been in a reflective mood in recent months, opening up about his football dreams before music eventually became his chosen path, as well as sharing personal lessons about loyalty, self-belief, and perseverance.
Could a Chris Brown Remix Be the Boost of the Year?
From a music business perspective, fans may have a point.
Chris Brown has built a strong relationship with Nigerian artists over the years and has delivered successful collaborations with several Afrobeats stars. His ability to blend seamlessly with African sounds has often helped songs reach wider international audiences.
For Peter Okoye, whose latest single is already gaining traction, a remix featuring Chris Brown could significantly expand the song's global reach. Adding Davido to the mix would make the collaboration even more commercially appealing, combining three artists with strong fan bases across different markets.
However, the enthusiasm surrounding the idea also highlights something important: Peter's song appears to be standing on its own merit. The fact that listeners are already envisioning major international collaborations is a sign that the record has made an impression.
Whether the remix eventually happens or not, I Can't Look Away has succeeded in getting people talking. And in today's music industry, creating that kind of conversation is often the first step toward a bigger hit.
For now, fans can only speculate, but Peter's reaction suggests he certainly wouldn't mind seeing Chris Brown add his signature touch to the track.
