"I think he was right, because I’d be vexed if I’m performing and then you play another artist’s song. I don’t blame him," Medikal said.

He emphasized that artists should have full control over their performances and proposed that Fameye could have avoided the issue by ensuring his own DJ handled the set.

Medikal also stressed the importance of promoters recognizing the specific needs of performers, including the presence of their team members, to guarantee a seamless event.

“So these are some of the things the promoters outside should consider, they should know that these artists need to come with their DJs, managers, team members, and anyone who will make the show go well,” he added.

He urged event promoters to take these considerations seriously to prevent such occurrences in the future.

This followed a viral video showing Fameye angrily confronting a DJ and event organizers during his performance at the 'Xmas Highlife Concert' in London on December 15, 2024.

Fameye’s frustration stemmed from the DJ’s failure to play his requested tracks and versions, which disrupted his set.

Despite rehearsing with the DJ on three separate occasions, the issues persisted, ultimately leading Fameye to leave the stage in frustration.

In a statement released on December 16, 2024, his management attributed the incident to the unprofessional conduct of the event’s DJ.

The statement further revealed that the organizers had rejected their efforts to include Fameye’s official DJ, insisting instead on using their own, a decision that significantly impacted the artist’s ability to perform effectively.
