Bullgod Explains Personal Inspiration Behind Name Change
By Esther Korantemaa Offei
Popular artiste manager and founder of Bullhaus, Lawrence Nana Asiamah Hanson, widely known as BullGod, has revealed the heartfelt reason behind the rebranding of his stage name from “Bulldog” to “BullGod.”
Speaking in an exclusive interview on What Dey Happen on ZED FM, Hanson explained that the change was inspired by his daughter, Adom, his third child. “Bulldog originally stood for ‘Bull Depends on God,’ so the ‘dog’ part was also symbolic,” he said. “But my daughter, Adom, started calling me BullGod one day, and it just hit the right place.”
He recalled his surprise at how his young daughter came up with the name. “I was wondering how that would even come from her, you know? Because all this while, the message was about ‘depends on God.’ When she calls me BullGod, it shows she understands something spiritual, and that really touched me,” he added.
Hanson said the name change was a way to honor his daughter and her insight. “It was on her sixth birthday that I decided to make the change officially. It was a small gesture, but it meant a lot to me. It reflects both my personal beliefs and my family’s influence,” he noted.
The rebranding has resonated with fans and the entertainment industry alike, reinforcing Hanson’s reputation as a manager who blends personal values with professional creativity. “It’s a change, yes, but a good one. It aligns with my spiritual outlook and reminds me daily of what matters most,” he said.
BullGod, through Bullhaus, continues to shape Ghana’s music landscape, managing top talents while maintaining a personal connection to his roots and family. The story behind his name now adds another layer to his public persona, illustrating how personal experiences can influence professional identity.
“I think it’s important to let people know the story behind the names and brands you carry,” Hanson concluded. “For me, BullGod is more than a name, it’s a message, a memory, and a reminder of my daughter’s innocence and insight.”
