Gabriel Oche Amanyi, popularly known by his stage name Terry G, is a Nigerian musician and producer. He is widely known for his eccentric dress-sense, controversial lyrics and awkward identity. He has been described by The Punch as "one of the world's weirdest singers", by Vanguard as a "Weird singer", and by Channels TV as the "Craziest musician in Nigeria". In 2013, he released his fourth album titled Book of Ginger.
Amanyi was born in Lagos State on March 17, 1986, which coincidentally happened to be his mother's birthday. He started singing in the choir of his local church.
The "Akpako master", as he is fondly called, received critical acclaim for his unique brand of music and personality. Through his songs, he has admitted to using drugs and alcohol. In September 2014, he told Jane Augoye of The Punch that he has stopped taking hard drugs. He has cited 2face Idibia as his greatest musical mentor.
