Nigerian artist Terry G has publicly criticized Billboard Magazine for omitting his music from their “Top 50 Best Afrobeats Songs of All-Time” list. The list, which placed 2Face’s “African Queen” at number one, included tracks from Timaya, Weird MC, and Olu Maintain, but notably excluded Terry G’s popular songs such as “Akpako Master” and “Free Madness.”
In response to the list, Terry G commented on social media, stating he was “robbed.” This statement has sparked debate among fans, with some supporting his claim and others arguing that his songs do not compare to the impact of “African Queen.” The controversy highlights ongoing discussions about the criteria and representation within curated “best of” lists.
