Terri embarked on his first project and released an EP titled Afro-Series in 2020. According to the artist in an interview with Pulse, he didn’t want to feature any other artist in the EP because he was trying to prove what he was capable of. However, one of his songs, Ojoro, in his EP album was produced by Sarz.
Critics claim that Wizkid isn’t doing much in promoting Terri ever since the young musician joined his record label. They compared Terri’s relevance in the industry with his counterparts such as Rema, Fireboy, and Lyta, and they concluded that Terri is not getting the attention he deserves, hence his career is dwindling.
Terri invented his stage name from his original name, Terry, and he is okay with it, but when he was signed into Starboy Entertainment, fans automatically added Starboy to his stage name. His manager felt it was good he followed, so he went with the name, StarBoy Terri. The youngster still has plans of going back to school to study and a business-related course.
