You don’t kill purpose -Singer Terry G gives reason for name change

Terry G, Nigerian singer has spoken out in response to the backlash over his recent name change to Terry Gzus, stating that the move marks a divine redirection of his career, not its decline.

Addressing critics who believe the rebranding signals the end of his musical journey, Terry G dismissed the notion, explaining that Gzus symbolizes a deeper, spiritual transformation rather than a loss of purpose.

In a statement, the artist wrote: “They say my career ended the day I became Terry Gzus. But let me set the record straight — my journey didn’t end; it was divinely redirected. Gzus is not Jesus Christ, but a reflection of the God in me — fearless, chosen, and unapologetic. You don’t kill purpose by changing a name. What’s ordained can’t be cancelled.”

He emphasized that the name change reflects his personal growth and a stronger connection to a higher calling, urging fans to look beyond labels and see the intention behind the shift.
