Don’t ever compare me to any rapper; nobody is my mate – Medikal
Medikal is not here for the comparisons, and he made that crystal clear in his recent outburst on social media. On April 15, 2025, the Ghanaian rapper took to Twitter/X to fire off a bold statement:
“Make una never compare me to any rapper for Ghana, Africa and beyond, nobody be my mate!”

He didn’t stop there — he doubled down, specifically calling out comparisons with fellow Ghanaian rapper Kwesi Arthur, and warned fans to stop putting him side-by-side with anyone in the industry.
“Never ever compare me to any artiste, not Kwesi Arthur or anyone. Don’t even dare, are you guys fking mad?”

Medikal’s tweet stirred mixed reactions across social media. While some fans praised his confidence and self-belief, others saw it as unnecessary disrespect to his peers, especially given the collaborative nature of African hip-hop.
It’s not the first time Medikal has sparked controversy with bold takes, but this one’s struck a nerve. Whether it’s about defending his legacy or just raw ego, he’s standing firm on being in a league of his own.
