Music star Peter Okoye, popularly known as Mr P, has responded to trolls comparing his YouTube views to other artists.

He stressed that his focus is on genuine fan support over artificial numbers.

In an X post, he dismissed the criticism and reaffirmed his dedication to organic growth.

He argued that buying millions of views is easy but meaningless without real engagement, pointing out that his 1.2 million views on ODO come with over 5,000 comments and nearly 50,000 likes, far more authentic than higher views with less interaction.

He thanked his fans and emphasised steady progress.

He wrote on X: “Team P! We are not in any competition with anybody! So, stop disturbing us by comparing YouTube views. I can easily buy 20 million views in less than 1 hour! But I would rather grow organically and get real engagement and real fans.

“What’s the point of 2 million views with less than 2k comments and 20k likes when we are doing 1.2 million views with more than 5k comments and close to 50k likes.

“We are getting there! Thank y’all. ODO.”
