Terry G Confesses: ‘I Serve the Devil — He Made Me Successful’ — Fans in Total Shock as Singer Clears the Air After Death Rumours

The internet has once again been thrown into chaos following a shocking revelation by Nigerian singer Gabriel Oche Amanyi, popularly known as Terry G, who boldly declared that he serves the devil and credited the dark forces for his success in the entertainment industry. The controversial statement, which surfaced on his social media page before it was swiftly deleted, has sent shockwaves across the Nigerian music scene and left fans in disbelief.

Terry G’s chilling confession came just hours after he debunked viral rumours claiming that he had died. Earlier, the “Akpako Master” had taken to social media to reassure his fans that he was alive and well after news of his supposed death began trending online. In a video message, he expressed disappointment over the false reports, saying his phone had not stopped ringing since the story went viral. “My phone has been buzzing since morning. People have been calling to check up on me. They saw something online about my R.I.P, saying Terry G don d+e. I came to clear your conscience. Please, whoever is trending that news, stop am. I am doing very fine, please stop that, I beg you in the name of God,” he said.

However, it was what followed that left social media buzzing. In a separate post referencing an interview he had previously done with The Honest Bunch Podcast, Terry G reiterated a part of his statement that many had initially dismissed as figurative or simply his usual brand of controversy. In the viral clip, Terry G openly admitted that he sings for the devil and not for God. “In the video with Honest Bunch Podcast, I said, ‘I have fallen short of the glory of God. People like me will not get married. I’m not a gospel musician. I’m a secular musician. I sing for the devil. We sing for the devil, we praise the devil. We don’t glorify God and it’s my business.’ You people don’t know before? Don’t you know I’m serving the devil? He made me successful. I have cleared your conscience. Take am like that. God bless you, I’m still very sound and healthy,” he boldly declared.

The revelation immediately sent fans into a frenzy, with many expressing confusion and disbelief over the singer’s remarks. While some took his words literally, accusing him of openly admitting to satanic influence in his music, others argued that Terry G was merely being sarcastic, using the phrase “I sing for the devil” to emphasize that his music is secular and not spiritual. Yet, for many of his long-time followers, the declaration felt like an eerie confirmation of what had often been rumored about him throughout his career.

Terry G, who rose to fame in the late 2000s with hits like Free Madness, Akpako Master, and Run Mad, has always been surrounded by controversy. Known for his eccentric style, unpredictable behavior, and wild stage performances, the singer built a reputation as one of the most unconventional acts in the Nigerian music industry. At the height of his fame, he was regarded as the “crazy boy” of Nigerian music, with his sound blending chaos, rhythm, and street energy into something both unique and unsettling. Over the years, he has often been accused of using drugs or being mentally unstable, allegations he has occasionally addressed but never fully escaped.

This latest statement has reignited debates about the spiritual side of fame and success in the entertainment industry. Many Nigerians took to social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and Facebook to share mixed reactions. Some users condemned the singer for allegedly promoting darkness, while others called for prayers and understanding, suggesting that his comments could be a cry for help or a form of artistic expression taken out of context. One fan wrote, “This is not funny. If he really said he serves the devil, then he needs serious deliverance. This is not the Terry G we used to know.” Another user argued, “He’s just being real. Most secular artists admit they don’t glorify God in their music. At least he’s being honest.”

Interestingly, Terry G has previously spoken about his struggles with identity, spirituality, and the pressures of fame. In past interviews, he described himself as someone constantly battling personal demons and trying to find peace outside the spotlight. He once admitted that his fame came with loneliness, paranoia, and regret, hinting that he had made mistakes he wished he could undo. His statement about “falling short of the glory of God” appears to be a continuation of this recurring theme in his life — an acknowledgment of imperfection rather than a literal declaration of allegiance to evil.

Nevertheless, his recent words were delivered with such blunt confidence that many have found it hard to dismiss as metaphorical. By saying, “He made me successful,” referring to the devil, Terry G sparked renewed conversations about what artists are willing to do to achieve fame. Nigeria’s entertainment scene has long been riddled with conspiracy theories suggesting that certain musicians and celebrities have ties to occult practices or “dark powers” that fuel their success. Though most of these claims lack evidence, they continue to gain traction among fans whenever a celebrity makes an unusual statement or exhibits erratic behavior.

As of now, Terry G has not issued any official clarification beyond his viral posts. The deleted message and subsequent reposts have only added to the speculation, with some netizens suggesting that he might be seeking attention or trying to stage a comeback through controversy. Others believe his words could be a form of coded message, possibly linked to a deeper emotional or spiritual struggle.

Regardless of the interpretation, the incident has brought Terry G back into public conversation after years of relative silence. Once a dominant force in Nigerian pop and street music, he had faded from mainstream visibility, occasionally resurfacing online but rarely in the headlines. Now, with this latest statement, the “Free Madness” crooner has once again reminded Nigerians why he remains one of the industry’s most unpredictable figures.

Whether this confession was a deliberate act of provocation, a misunderstood metaphor, or a genuine admission of his beliefs, one thing is certain — Terry G has successfully ignited yet another nationwide debate about faith, fame, and the price of success. As fans continue to dissect his words and intentions, the larger question lingers: is Terry G crying out for help, or is he simply telling his truth in a way only he can?

For now, the music star insists he is alive, healthy, and unapologetic. “I have cleared your conscience. Take am like that. God bless you,” he said in his closing statement — a line that, depending on who you ask, is either a bold declaration of independence or a haunting reminder of how blurred the line between showbiz and spirituality can truly be.
