Dancehall star Shatta Wale has spotlighted rapper Medikal as his most trusted ally in Ghana’s music industry, revealing that their bond was forged in adversity and strengthened through loyalty, shared vision, and financial success.
Taking to Twitter, Shatta Wale praised Medikal not just as a collaborator but as a brother who has stood with him when many others walked away. “I have made friends with artistes but @Medikalbyk is the only Artiste that breaks bread with me,” he tweeted, sparking conversations about authenticity and loyalty in showbiz.
Their friendship notably intensified after their separate arrests in 2021—Shatta Wale for a staged gunshot hoax and Medikal for flashing a weapon on social media. Their legal battles, though individual, seemed to unite them in brotherhood. Since then, the two have been inseparable on stage and in business, racking up impressive financial milestones together.
“We made 3.5 million GHC after we came from jail in just a day concert. $300k in 2 weeks in America on our tour… and many more!!” Shatta Wale revealed, crediting their unity and mutual hustle for the wins.
He described Medikal as someone he trusts not just in music, but in life, stating that their relationship is built on real conversations, business-minded collaboration, and mutual respect. “Why won’t I always share ideas with him?” he asked, adding that their dynamic reflects what the industry often lacks—genuine brotherhood.
The statement carries weight coming from Shatta Wale, known for his outspoken critiques of industry politics and perceived betrayals. His endorsement of Medikal as a rare, true friend shines a light on what he believes is missing in Ghana’s entertainment space: loyalty that goes beyond music.
