Everyone knows him as that talented musician who
could craft sounds into a hit music, but too
controversial, suddenly the story changed. He
turned into an overnight gentleman, too
corporate alike that corporate companies and
agencies are now offering him endorsement
deals unlike before . Now, everything about Gabriel
Amanyi, otherwise known as Terry G has totally
changed, but his talent is perfectly intact and
improving. In this enthralling interview with
Ugochukwu Favour-Mayor of Nigeriafilms.com,
the father of one tells it all on his present corporate
outlook, new album, marital life and other issues you
need to know.
Excerpts:
How does it feel to be a father?
It’s the happiest thing that has ever happened to me.
There is always a feeling one has never felt before,
especially when it is the first time. It’s full of new
experiences, and the truth is that it has brought good
luck to my life.
Has it changed anything about you?
Yes, definitely. It has changed my lifestyle; I’m now a
homely man, always at home playing with my kid. It
has made me to be calm.
Tell us about his mother, Mimi?
She is lovely, understanding and very intelligent. It is
always difficult to find the right partner, but I’m lucky
to have found her.
How and when did your paths cross?
Mimi and I have been together for five years now. We
have also been working together, she has been in
charge of my music affairs, and when it comes to the
organization of my projects, she has been quite
supportive. Though, she doesn’t come out in public,
she has been awesome.
What attracted her to you?
I told you it is very hard for men of nowadays to find
the right woman. What I was looking for was a
homely girl; that is the best attraction any man can
get. Even your mum will tell you that you must bring
home a responsible girl. That is the image she has.
Are you planning on marriage?
Marriage will come when it is time, I will let people
know, but marriage is not something you rush into
just like that; it is life that is more meaningful from
the previous life we live before being married.
Where did you meet the mother of your baby,
because you seems to have a negative image
and it assumed that is not easy for a woman to
put up with you?
I met her in the United Kingdom. There was a concert
I attended in London; that was my first major
performance in London, so we met there. I met her
through a friend, so we just started chatting. What
actually happened was that she got amazed knowing
that I was Terry G, she wanted to know more about
me but when she saw the other side of me, she got
interested because there is a difference between
Gabriel and Terry G. Now we are able to transform
the relationship into a family and I am also more
responsible with her beside me.
What’s your definition of fashion?
Fashion means presence; it is value and determines
how people rate you.
You pierced several parts of your body. Don’t
you get uncomfortable with it at times?
You wouldn’t want to do anything that makes you
uncomfortable. The only way it might inconvenience
you is when you listen to the negative things people
are saying. So, if you want to do something, do it the
way it pleases you. I’m comfortable with my piercing.
If you have the privilege to change something
about yourself, what will it be?
I love driving, and I deny my driver of his duties most
times. Maybe I need to change that. But talking
about my person, it can’t change. You can’t change
what brings food to your table; so far it is not
negative.
Terry G has been in the news for negative and
terrible reasons, but all of a sudden, Terry G
just went under, what made you calm down?
Sometimes you see life changing constantly and
sometimes you see it in a different way and different
platform. I just saw so much values in my life and the
future, when I say my future it has to do with my kids
as well you know, so I started changing a lot of things
and it actually scared away a lot of negative friends
from me, it helped me scare them away, it helped me
resolve myself and also helped me re-arrange myself.
Would you say you are now fulfilled?
Yes, I’m fulfilled. The Bible says that whatever you
say with your tongue shall come to pass, so I’m
fulfilled.
You launched your album recently in Abuja
with the 'Book of Ginger' Concert
Yes, the concert was really a successful event with
the support of my adopted Area Father, Charley Boy;
who joined with the street awareness for the event,
the reception and the crowd was awesome and
massive because we did a huge publicity for the
event and we had all the media houses supporting,
though we did a huge publicity which made the place
to be jam-packed and it was a successful show after
all.
Tell us about your new album.
The title of the album is 'Book of Ginger' and it has to
do with showing the other side of my music career
and my personality. It talks more about my new
person, my new identity.
How many tracks are there in the album?
I have 22 tracks recorded in the album which has
pages and chapters including content that makes it a
book.
Why do you have so many tracks in the album?
No, I had always been having this problem, it usually
comes when the compiling of the tracks to make an
album, I don't do songs because I want to release an
album. I record almost every day and when it's time
for me to release an album, I usually have problems
of selection and I won't know the one to drop or pick
and people around also add to the problem because
they also want their favourite songs in the album, so
not that I am purposely doing many tracks, it is
based on demand and choice.
