The contentious remark was made as part of a wider Twitter conversation over Medikal's reputation in the music business.

The "Omo Ada" hitmaker shared a screenshot of a chat with YouTuber Kai Cenat in a tweet that has since attracted attention and discussions.

During the talk, Kai said he was hoping for a hero's welcome when he got to Ghana.

Medikal’s later took to Twitter to post, “F*kn goat coming to GH. Naa I’m gassed fr,” ignited the conversation that followed.

A Twitter user, seemingly questioning Medikal’s use of the term “GOAT” (Greatest of All Time), remarked, “Big artiste like you …You don’t know the meaning of GOAT u just Dey use am anyhow …Jon Rapper.”

Another commenter pointed out that Medikal and Nigerian musician Rema are not the same age, implying that Medikal might easily take on the role of a protégé.

In response to the comparisons and critiques, Medikal made a bold declaration, asserting that,

“The only Nigerian artist wey hold pass me na Davido I swear.”

This claim has sparked debates regarding success, money, and how musicians are viewed internationally.
