Terry G spoke, detailing a controversial incident that derailed his career and exposing the pervasive influence of cultism among artists.

So, in an interview on the Afrobeats Podcast with Adesope, Terry G recounted a 2016 altercation with DJ Phreez, which led to his blacklisting by the DJs Association of Nigeria (DJAN).

Also, the incident, he acknowledged, significantly hindered his career progression and served as a setback.

Furthermore, Terry G also sounded the alarm on cultism's insidious presence in the music industry. Also, he stated that it has become a major obstacle for artists like him who refuse to join these groups.

Additionally, he lamented that cultism has "hijacked our profession" and emphasized the need for its elimination to foster harmony and unity among artists.

However, the singer's candid revelations have sparked important conversations about the music industry's internal dynamics and the need for a more inclusive and supportive environment.

Subsequently, Terry G's words serve as a wake-up call, urging the industry to confront the cultism issue and create a more welcoming space for all artists to thrive.

The media personality had apologised live on air at the Cool FM studio, stating that he'd made a new realisation in light of his comments to YCee who'd reacted to Wizkid's comments on Hip-hop and Nigerian rappers.

Adesope Olajide said; "I shared a video of him being supported by Wizkid a couple years ago, at that moment thinking "how come you're gonna go that hard against someone that had stood out for you in the past." After a while, a brother of mine, Micheal Tubes, said, "That's your brother right there man. So me posting a video with such a comment was almost like I threw him under the bus. And for me that was probably the most hurtful thing in the whole saga".

It's you living the kind of life were it's not about you anymore and what you feel and that you can't change. You know it's too late to go back and say ‘i no longer want my life to be in the public eye anymore’, you know it's too late for that. So first of all if I was going to talk about it, okay cool”.
