Ghanaian rapper Medikal has declared that 2025 will be a year entirely dedicated to his own music, revealing his decision to take a break from collaborations. Speaking in a recent interview with Andy Dosty on Hitz FM, the rapper, known for his hit song Ayekoo, explained that he plans to focus solely on his individual projects in the upcoming year. Medikal emphasized that 2025 would be a "selfish year" for him, highlighting the fact that he had already worked on several collaborations in 2024. “Next year I won’t do features. It’s going to be a very selfish year for me because this year I did a lot of features,” he stated.
This decision to limit collaborations comes after a particularly busy and successful 2024, where Medikal worked with a wide range of artists from various genres, including Beeztrap KOTM, Kwesi Amewuga, Kofi Mole, Uncle Rich, and the popular dancehall star Shatta Wale. These collaborations showcased Medikal's versatility and influence within the Ghanaian music scene, as he seamlessly blended with different artists and musical styles. His extensive feature list this year served as a testament to his prominence and willingness to explore new creative territories.
However, Medikal now seeks to shift his focus back to his own artistry. By taking a break from features, he hopes to carve out time for personal growth and creative freedom, giving himself space to explore new sounds and evolve as a solo artist. This move appears to be driven by a desire to push his musical boundaries and concentrate on crafting a more personal and introspective body of work without outside influences.
Despite the hiatus from collaborations in 2025, Medikal has confirmed that he will wrap up 2024 with a long-awaited collaboration with fellow rapper Eno Barony. This highly anticipated track has garnered significant buzz, with fans eager to hear the two powerhouse rappers come together. Medikal promised that their collaboration will be released before the year ends, making it one of the most exciting hip-hop releases in Ghana this year.
Medikal’s announcement marks a significant shift in his approach to music, signaling a new chapter where he fully embraces his role as a solo artist. Fans are sure to be excited about the prospect of more personal, introspective music from the rapper, and as 2025 approaches, the anticipation for his solo projects will only grow.
