Abuja-based artiste, Ad-Terry in an interview with Ajuluchukwu Brown, talked about growing up, his music and Pan-Africanism. He expressed his passion to use music as a tool for Pan-Africanism, unifying Africans with his music. Tell us about the brand Ad-Terry.

My name is Adamu Itopa Lawal. My stage name is Ad-Terry. I was born in Katsina State but I hailed from Kogi State. I hold a degree in Political Science and a Master degree in International Relations. I am an ardent lover of great music as both a music consumer and music creator.In the early 2000s, I was always listening to artists like Craig David, Joe Thomas, 2Face and Tyrese Gibson. I am a huge fan of Tyrese. At that time, the major medium for listening to music was through radio stations.

I have worked with the legendary Faze of the defunct Plantashun Boys. I have a song titled, For You with him in my first album. Currently, I have a song in rotation with Yunique. I would love to work with the rave of the moment, Odumodu Black who is also based in Abuja.I am so not satisfied. Abuja used to be a stronghold for music back in the days. Great artists such as Mode 9 and Sixfootplus were based in Abuja, and they did well.
