I deserve the Ariste of the year award -Medikal
Medikal has asserted that he deserves to win the Artiste of the Year title at the 2026 Telecel Ghana Music Awards, following the official announcement of nominees. Speaking during a live performance at the Papa Nantwie Festival in Kumawu, Medikal argued that the awards board should ensure that the selection process remains fair and strictly merit-based. He said, "You know they have nominated me for the TGMA awards, including Artiste of the Year. And we all know that last year I worked harder than everyone in that category."
Medikal called on his fans to amplify a clear message to the organisers, stressing the need for transparency and fairness in determining the winner. He insisted that the process must be free from bias or external influence, repeating a popular phrase to emphasise his point. He stated, "So tell them, 'No libilibi, no labalaba' when it comes to the Artiste of the Year award. I outperformed every artiste throughout last year."
The Artiste of the Year category is widely regarded as one of the most competitive in recent times. Medikal is facing stiff competition from fellow Ghanaian stars including Black Sherif, Stonebwoy, Wendy Shay, Sarkodie and Diana Hamilton.
