Medikal On VGMA Loss

“I felt devastated but I understood that. I recorded like 100 songs and only a few made me. But the awards don’t make you who you are. Shatta is my good friend and he hasn’t got that awards but he is going up. I am an entertainer so I won’t let those things bring me down.” 

Furthermore, Medikal indicated that negative critics don’t get to him. Rather, they rather power him to excel in the music industry.

Moreover, he was asked if he expects to win an award this year. He replied,

‘I don’t even know if my team filed for it. It’s not anything I know. I have a lot of information occupying my mind. I am a member of MUSIGA but don’t know about GHAMRO.

Criticisms don’t stress me. Just as battery is positive and negative I need it all to fuel my fire. It doesn’t let me down. I need it in my system. If no one is talking about me I feel bad”
