Terry G, the street-hop singer, has sparked concern among fans after sharing cryptic social media posts, suggesting he is navigating a period of emotional turmoil.
The ‘Akpako Master’ took to Instagram on Friday with a heartfelt plea to his followers, writing simply, “Pray for me”.
The 39-year-old singer elaborated on his inner state, describing a profound sense of being overwhelmed.
He portrayed his spirit as “heavy,” and vividly likened the feeling to “drowning in an ocean of silence”.
“My spirit feels heavy, like I’m drowning in an ocean of silence. May your prayers lift me back to peace. #prayforme #prayforterryg,” he added.
The distressing messages stand in stark contrast to the reflective and grateful tone he had struck just days prior.
On his X account, he had shared a more optimistic outlook, writing, “Today is a beautiful day, life is always better when you appreciate what you have & let what you don’t have come at it’s time.”
