Nigerian singer Gabriel Amanyi popularly known as Terry G has described himself as the Jesus of Nigerian music, saying he set the pace for the present trend in the Nigerian music industry.

He said this while speaking in an interview with ChannelsTV, he said that Nigerians have come to embrace his kind of music. He included that many Nigerians are hypocritical as they have come to embrace and support most of the things they criticised him for doing in the past. He said he set the pace and sacrificed his artistic genre.
Read his statement below;

''I’m the Jesus of Nigerian music, I’m not the Christ. The Christ is the savior, Jesus is a name, and for the fact that Jesus is the most popular name that died for us and sacrificed for us.
It took me a while to take this risk that a lot of persons discriminated against me for and now, they see people smoking, doing stuff and nobody is talking. There must be a pace-setter''.

Comparing himself to Naira Marley, Terry G admitted that it was not in his place to decide whether he was more influential than Naira Marley. I guess we could decide.
