Put some respect on my name – Terry G warns over comparison with new street artistes

Terry G, a well-known Ghetto artist from Nigeria, has expressed regret over music enthusiasts’ comparison of him to up-and-coming street performers.

In a message on his official social media accounts, the “Free Madness” singer said that no new performer can rival him musically.

Terry G requested that people respect his name and refrain from equating him with a rising street star.

He claims that while they could act weirdly like him, nobody can match him in terms of making multi-platinum music or playing an instrument.

He wrote:

“Put some respect on my name. Comparisons have to be of equal match; then a better choice is made; comparing me with any new street sensation is a bad match; they can act crazzy but not musically on my level on both vocal, playing of instruments, producing multi-platinum hits for several artistes and my catalogue.”

Recall the 37-year-old announced he was quitting music in an Instagram post on January 13. In Terry G’s words:

“I’m about to say a big thank you to my fans for staying with me through the years back to back, I am about to make a big announcement, I know it’s gonna hurt a lot of people. I have my personal reasons. I am quitting music. I no dey do again. I’m done and I really appreciate you guys for showing me so much love, God bless you.”
