Olarenwaju Michael Afolabi Teriba Popularly known as Lanre Teriba is a Nigerian gospel artist and songwritter from Ogun State in the South Western part of Nigeria. He was born on 23 April, 1976.

He attended Christ Centre Primary School, Ilupeju, Lagos where he obtained his first School Leaving Certificate in 1988 before moving on to Estate Grammer School, Oshodi, Lagos for his secondary education where he acquired his Senior Secondary School Certificate in 1994.

He went further to obtain a degree in Accounting in 1998 from the Federal Polytechnic, Offa, Kwara State.

Indigenous gospel musician, Lanre Teriba entered stardom in 2000 with his debut album Atorise (Reformer). While spending most of his childhood at church, this Ogun State native discovered his vocal gift.

At eighteen, Teriba left home to pursue an Accounting Degree at Federal Polytechnic Offa in Kwara State.

There he joined the university’s Kegites club where he composed and performed music which brought the club members closer to God.

After acquiring his degree, he searched for a job to no avail.

Teriba decided to use his gift, thus he began composing while struggling to raise money for a demo. In 1999 during his pursuit of establishing his music career he came across a promoter, Tunde Olokodana. Olokodana instantly fell in love with Teriba's demo and he invested in him.

Since then Teriba continues to maintain a unique standard with his infusion of indigenous beats with other sounds called 'Tungba'. Teriba has staged concerts along with K1 De Ultimate, 9ice, Sammy Okposo amongst others. His unique way of spreading God's message makes him an outstanding inspirational musician.

To date he has released 15 albums including the latest 'Unstoppable God.' Additionally, he remains the most travelled artiste within his genre as he continues to tour across multiple countries in Africa, North America and Europe.
