Artist Bio

PSean and Jay Cube, members of the Afro-pop group Oxygen 2; are two artists which exemplify the spirit of this new genre by offering a unique sound saturated with jazz, afro-beats, pop, R&B, and American hip-hop.

PSean, born Oluwaseun Oyeneyin, and Jay Cube, born Folajimi Oyeneyin, are brothers who hail from the West African country of Nigeria. PSean and Jay Cube attribute much of their early interest in music to their parents who were both involved in musical ministries. Although both brothers were surrounded by music all their lives; PSean remembers his desire to pursue a musical career truly began while performing in talent shows as a teenager. Although PSean was a timid and reserved young man, the exuberance of the crowd and the excitement within the arena gave him the boost necessary to present outstanding performances.

P-Sean and Jay Cube’s talent caught the eye of Prince Beejay Adebanjo C.E.O and Co Founder of Camp Green Records. Adebanjo, a Nigerian native and musical connoisseur familiar with various Afro-pop artists; was impressed with the artistry and level of potential the brothers possessed. Consequently, Adebanjo aggressively sought the endorsement of C.E.O and President of Camp Green Records, Chike “Chi” Okeke Jr., a fellow Nigerian native and music mogul. This resulted in Jay Cube and PSean signing with Camp Green Records in the spring of 2010 as the Afro-pop duo Oxygen 2 (A.K.A O2). Together both C.E.O’s have been actively involved in nurturing what is to be the future of African pop or as fans already call them “The Dynamic Duo”.

Oxygen 2’s latest work with Camp Green Records, Fresh Air Therapy: Vol. 1(Mini LP), has an anticipated release date sometime in July 2010. This debut mix tape release arrives on the heels of other successful Nigerian artists such as Wale and Nneka.
