Controversial dancehall artiste Shatta Wale has warned his colleague and close ally, Medikal, not to work with media personality Highest Eri again.
A fresh wave of controversy hit Ghana’s entertainment scene after Wale and Eri exchanged words on social media following her brief appointment as Public Relations Officer (PRO) for Medikal’s Beyond Kontrol (BYK) label.
The tension began on November 21, 2025, when Medikal unveiled Erica Nana Akua Appiahimah, popularly known as Highest Eri, as BYK’s official PRO. The rapper noted that her background in radio, TV, and content creation, including work with Hitz FM and Kwadwo Sheldon Studios, made her a suitable fit for the role.
However, the announcement immediately sparked outrage among Shatta Wale’s fanbase, who accused Eri of previously making negative remarks about the “Ayoo” hitmaker and his followers. Some fans even threatened to boycott Medikal’s December 13 concert in protest.

Fed up with the backlash, Highest Eri resigned from the role.
In response, Wale admitted to influencing her resignation and cautioned Medikal to stay away from his former PRO.
He also lashed out at Highest Eri for making inappropriate remarks about his fans.
“He [Medikal] should not try to work with that girl [Highest Eri] again. You sit on Twitter and talk anyhow. You can say you won’t work with Medikal again, but I am the one who spoilt it. The satanic spirituality will spoil it. When you sleep, you’ll even dream about me. Kwadwo Sheldon and Eri, you talk about me anyhow, criticizing my shows. Do you know the people who come to my shows? Then you say their armpits smell. That Eri girl behaves anyhow,” Wale said, as shared by Loyal TV Studios on YouTube.
