Ghanaian rapper Medikal has issued a bold response to singer and hype man DJ Azonto, following a heated copyright dispute over the use of the word “Alla” in his latest single, “Shoulder.”

On July 9, DJ Azonto, through his management team, the Rolls Royce Family accused Medikal of copyright infringement, claiming the rapper had used “Alla”, a term DJ Azonto asserts is integral to his artistic brand.

In a statement released by Sammy Anim, the team’s Public Relations Officer, DJ Azonto demanded an extraordinary list of compensations, including luxury cars, real estate, and even a diplomatic passport.

“The term ‘Alla’, which is part of DJ Azonto’s signature slogan ‘Alla Woyo’, is an established element of his artistic identity. It is strongly linked to his image, live performances, and fan engagement,” the statement read.

However, Medikal who s known for his quick wit and viral comebacks, has taken to his official X (formerly Twitter) to address the controversy.

In a characteristically humorous tone, he dismissed the demands with the now-trending phrase “Killa Ntua!”, roughly meaning “I won’t pay” in Twi parlance.

“Killa Ntua!” he retweet to an article from Ameyaw Debrah.
