An old interview of Black Sherif gushing over Medikal and desperately wanting a collaboration has resurfaced online, just days after he beat the rapper to claim his second consecutive Artiste of the Year title at the 27th Telecel Ghana Music Awards.

In the throwback conversation with Sammy Flex, a young and still-emerging Black Sherif was asked which artiste he would most love to work with. He did not hesitate.
"Medikal is someone who, if you give him a song to provide a verse and he feels it, he will deliver a mad verse. And I know when he puts his verse on your song, it will be a hit. I want him to feature on my song. If he wants me to feature on one of his songs, I will be excited. Both of us will spoil there," he said.
The video has reemerged online after the two went head-to-head for the 2026 TGMA on Saturday, May 9, 2026.
Medikal had been highly tipped to win the coveted AOTY, which would have been his first win in the category.
Even though he won four awards on the day, including the Most Popular Song Of The year with his Shoulder, featuring Shatta Wale and Beeztrap KOTM, he fell short of the ultimate.
Black Sherif pipped him to win his second AOTY, becoming only the fourth artiste and the youngest ever to win the TGMA's ultimate prize twice.

"Now, the person he wanted a feature very hard has not won a single AOTY, and he has two plus BET. This world is something else, oh, hmm. So when Stonebwoy said he wanted to be like Shatta and today he is making it at the top, you guys shouldn’t use that statement as a yardstick to measure his success and downgrade his strength and development in music."
