Terry G has criticised Nigerians for telling older musicians that their time is over.
The singer said he hears people say this and wondered why Nigerians must be the ones with this mindset.
He noted that people in Western nations revere their legends.
He wrote: “I hear people say, ‘Your time don pass!’—and it sounds like brain damage.
“In the West, legends are respected for life. No one calls Jayz or Beyoncé outdated. Their impact is honored.
“But here in Africa, especially Nigeria, we’re quick to discard our own. That’s why we believe our ancestors were evil, while Western ancestors are seen as gods. It’s time to break free from that mindset.
“If you don’t keep adding value to yourself and those around you, your worth will fade—no matter how great you once were.
“We must do better.”
