Medikal has been touted as one of the brilliant rappers in Ghana, considering his tact, lyrical prowess and flow.

His statement raises the question about whether he is able to match up to other rap MCs in Ghana and beyond, especially those who have proven on a number of occasions as heavyweights in the game.

Medikal further asserted that such comparisons diminish his artistic value and achievements. He specifically warned fans against comparing him with rapper Kwesi Arthur, suggesting that no artiste matches his calibre.

In the meantime, Medikal is out with 'Welcome to Africa', a hip hop song that addresses some of the ills of the Africa continent.
