Ghanaian rapper, Medikal is angry over a false publication made by a media house about him.
The popular rapper took to Twitter to criticize the media outlet for its lack of due diligence before publishing untrue statements about him from a fake account purporting to be him.
He criticized the media for exhibiting no level of professionalism and misinforming the public.
In a tweet, Medikal said, “Some of y'all wake up in the morning, put on some cheap clothes, and spread some BS on national television without doing any research. No form or level of professionalism is exhibited here. When and where did I say this? My question is who de employ these people? Smd.”
The false publication made by the media house claimed that Medikal had asserted that Shatta Wale paved Burna Boy’s path to success and must be given the respect he deserves.

The fake account reported, “Truth be told, it's time to give respect. Shatta Wale paved Burna Boy's path to success. But some folks are too proud to accept. Lets give credit where it's due, and show some respect!!! Without Shatta, Burna may not have had his big break.”
However, the rapper vehemently denied ever making such a statement and demanded that the media house retract its false publication.
Many people on social media agreed with his sentiments while advising him to verify his account if he doesn't want more bad news circulating in his name.

The most trending entertainment news in Ghana is the beef between Me Eno Barony and Strongman both renown Ghana Hiphop/Hiplife artists from Ghana. As it stands now both artists have released two diss songs for each other and from the look of things, the beef is just starting.
In an interview on Hitz FM earlier this month, Medial named Eno as one of the best rappers in Ghana but was however quick to note that she can not rub shoulders with him. “She raps better than a lot of the male rappers in Ghana apart from me. I am not part, I am a better rapper, I am in my own world," he said.
Eno who has been monitoring MDK's rants on Friday, April 28 released a diss track to MDK titled 'Warning' with a music video directed by Narrow Geez.
This is not the first time Medikal and Eno have thrown shots at each other. In 2020, Eno Barony named him as the ghostwriter for Sista Afia when the two female musicians topped trends with their beef.
