O2 Concert was for Ghana, not just for me

Anita Akufo recently hosted Medikal on TV3 where she asked him about his experiences and achievements over the past year.

Medikal opened up about one of his biggest milestones—the historic O2 concert, where he became the first Ghanaian to headline a show at the prestigious venue.

“Yes, I relive every moment,” Medikal shared, reflecting on the experience. He emphasized that the concert was not only for him but for all of Ghana and its music industry.

“It was a bold statement, not just for me but for all Ghanaians, especially hip-hop artists. I was very young listening to big names, and today, I’m doing big things, inspiring the youth to follow the same path,” he added.

Medikal also touched on how the success of the O2 concert impacted both his personal growth and career.

“I felt accomplished, and career-wise, it gave me the chance to connect with fans abroad, especially in places like America and parts of Europe. London was different, and it made me realize that we need to take our music internationally because people love it,” he explained.

Looking ahead, Medikal teased plans for bigger things but remained vague on specifics.

“There are plans, not just for the O2, but to take the music across borders, internationally. I’m definitely plotting and planning,” he said.

When asked if he would repeat the success at the O2 in 2025, Medikal confirmed there were plans but avoided committing to a specific timeline, hinting at more international shows.

“I’m not saying next year, but I have big plans,” he shared.
