“I will always be involved in music,” Terry G declares

Terry G, whose real name is Gabriel Oche Amanyi, is a veteran of the Afrobeats scene who has sworn off music forever.

Instead of giving up music altogether, the 39-year-old said he would welcome the opportunity to be an emerging artist.

He made this statement in response to those who criticised him for seeking social media influence.

Announcing his status as a rising artist, Terry G stated on his X handle, “I fully embrace”. I have no plans to retire; it is the only way to become a legend. Let me be if you find out I’m trying to get influence.

Hits including “Free Madness,” “Sangalo,” “Akpako Master,” and “Run Mad” were produced by Terry G and were part of the “Street-hop” movement that emerged in the 2010s, which was influenced by ghetto music.

In a joint effort with Victony called “Tanko,” he is presently trying to make a return.
