Award winning Ghanaian rapper, Medikal has admitted that his extravagant social media persona is a fake and that he is not rich in real life.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The \u201cOmo Ada\u201d singer explained to Cookie Tee on Twitter that the lavish lifestyle he promotes is just for show and not to be taken seriously because of this.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Hollywood films were Medikal\u2019s medium of choice in making his thesis. He said that his luxurious automobiles, vacations, and private aircraft are all fake, just like shooting and murdering.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s all props, it\u2019s like the Rambo movie, you see him with guns, shooting and killing, but in real life, he\u2019s in The Bahamas chilling, that\u2019s how it is.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, what you see on social media is an illusion. It\u2019s just my brand. I don\u2019t have anything. My fans know that whatever I don\u2019t own, I won\u2019t claim as my own. I\u2019m not rich, I\u2019m trying to survive, I\u2019m a hustler just like everyone else,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

With the help of his passionate fan base, Medikal has already achieved success with a number of well-known songs, such as Confirm and Forever My Love (co-written with Bisa Kdei). Also, on his most recent mixtape, B.A.R III: Lomi Era, 2016 Ghanaian music artist of the year E.L included a feature on him.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Medikal had the most nominations for the 2017 Ghana Awards, beating out other well-known artists including Sarkodie.<\/p>\n

With persistence and several collaborations with well-known artists, Medikal has made a reputation for himself in the music industry. In 2018, IARA awarded him the finest African musician.<\/p>\n

On some of his biggest tracks, he has worked with artists such as Bisa Kadie, Criss Waddle, Confirm Remix with Sarkodie, Connect, Sales, Heart Boy, and Medikal Bra Krom.<\/p>\n
