Popular singer Gabriel Oche Amanyi, renowned as Terry G, has spilled the tea on the bitter-sweet encounters he’s had with his international superstar colleague, WizKid.
In a riveting appearance on the latest episode of the Afrobeats Podcast with Nigerian media personality, Adesope Olajide, Terry G kicked things off by showering accolades on Wizkid, whom he boldly dubbed as the Nigerian counterpart to Jay-Z—a titan in American hip-hop renowned not only for his musical prowess but also for his billionaire status and groundbreaking influence on hip-hop culture worldwide.
The ‘Akpako Master’ then delved into a nostalgic recounting of a pivotal moment in 2016 when Wizkid himself graced Terry G’s humble abode for a momentous recording session.
He revealed that during Wizkid’s visit, they not only recorded four songs together but also took a tour of his impressive property investments.
When Adesope asked Terry G about the unauthorized release of his joint song ‘Mary Jane’ with Wizkid online without clearance from Wizkid and his team, Terry G candidly admitted to not having obtained permission.
He expressed frustration at receiving a stern letter from Wizkid’s team, accusing him of breaching their agreement by releasing the track without consent.
Nostalgically reminiscing about simpler times, Terry G lamented the days when he could release joint songs independently without needing anyone’s approval.
Terry G vowed to promptly instruct his team to remove ‘Mary Jane’ from all streaming platforms, acknowledged the need to respect Wizkid’s rights and honor their prior agreements.
