Nigerian artist, Gabriel Oche Amanyi, known as Terry G, recently shared insights into his interactions with fellow musicians.
The ‘Akpako Master’ revealed that he does not maintain close relationships with any of his peers at present, citing his personal disposition as a contributing factor.
Terry G described himself as someone who prefers solitude and disclosed that he has never cultivated friendships within the industry.
Terry G said:
“I have never had friends, not just in the music industry but my entire life. I am a loner.
“I spend my time at the studio. I usually have business colleagues, people who do business with me. I don’t play.
“To be honest, I think my child is my only friend. Any other person close to me, it is just business.
“There are some of my colleagues like Timaya who used to be close to me but we are not close anymore. And nothing happened. We just grew apart.
“We do phone each other but phone conversation is different from physical relationship. Although we always exchange pleasantries whenever we run into each other.
“My relationship with Illbliss is very cool, we had issues back then but we later settled.”
