Medikal Hypes Shatta Wale at NDC Concert

Ghanaian rapper, Medikal was one of several artists who performed at the National Democratic Congress’ victory concert in Accra.
The organizers of the event billed several artists, including Stonebwoy, but dropped him moments before the show.
The organizers issued a statement explaining that they were forced to drop Stonebwoy due to pressure from the NDC’s supporters who did not approve of the ‘Jejereje’ hitmaker because he did not rally behind the party.
The decision enraged many entertainment industry professionals, including Lydia Forson, who said they shouldn’t have booked him in the first place.
“If they felt so strongly about not having him perform, they shouldn’t have booked him in the first place. But to book an artist and later rescind because people don’t like the idea is bad optics. If stone has a contract in place, hope you know he may still get paid.”

Moments after the decision to drop Stonebwoy, the organizers of the NDC’s victory concert announced Medikal as a performing act.
Medikal’s crony, Shatta Wale, shared his excitement about the rapper’s new gig on social media.
“When the people love you, their support becomes the wind beneath your wings, lifting you to heights you could never reach alone. Go and show dem why u be my real G 🚀🚀✈️ @Medikalbyk.”
Shatta Wale
His remarks come after a long-standing fierce banter with his rival Stonebwoy whose fans were not pleased with the NDC’s decision.
During the NDC victory concert held on January 5, Medikal unpacked a slew of hit songs from his well-seasoned catalog.
In a video, the rapper dedicated some time from his performance to hail Shatta Wale after his impressive stint with Vybz Kartel.
Medikal rallied the audience at the NDC concert to sing Shatta Wale’s praises after his landmark performance at the 35k-capacity National Stadium in Jamaica. His performance became a highlight after the show.
“Big shoutouts to his excellency Mahama. Big Shout out to the whole family and team here. And I want to say Big shoutouts to Shatta Wale, wherever he is. He made Ghana proud. It was his dream to do this, and we see it happening.”
