3L3M3NT Finds His Next Sound in Ghana With Medikal
3L3M3NT’s story is one shaped by music, movement and a willingness to explore beyond a single sound or creative lane.
Over the years, he has built a body of work across different stages of his career, with Ghana now becoming an important part of his latest chapter.
The German-Ghanaian artist has spent years building a career across music and entertainment, moving between different sounds and creative spaces while developing an identity of his own. Before adopting the 3L3M3NT name, he worked with Ghanaian acts including Castro, Ruff & Smooth, D-Cryme and Shatta Wale. Following his rebrand, that connection has continued through collaborations with Yhaw Hero, Gunnyboy, Medikal and Cina Soul.
His career stretches well beyond the recording studio. 3L3M3NT appeared in 80 episodes of the German television hit X-Diaries and has shared stages with artists including DMX, Elephant Man, Redman, Mobb Deep, Busta Rhymes and Ty Dolla $ign. Earlier in his career, he was also a key part of the Kurdish House Project alongside producer Renas Miran, contributing to tracks such as “Body Language” and “Latifa”. These experiences have allowed him to move between different audiences while continuing to develop his own musical identity.
The transition from LMX/LMXX to 3L3M3NT represents another stage in that evolution. His earlier work explored Dirty South, pop-rap and Kurdish fusion, while his current sound brings together melodic drill and Afro-inspired rhythms. The result is a more refined direction that retains the versatility that has been central to his career. His music has also continued to find new platforms, including a track placement in the Netflix film Sieger sein.
Ghana has increasingly become part of that progression. In May, 3L3M3NT released “Champion Ship” with Ghanaian artists Yhaw Hero and Gunnyboy, describing the song as an “anthem for winners”. After arriving in Ghana about a week ago, he has now linked up with Medikal for another collaboration, with the two also working on a video.
These collabs form part of a wider creative push as 3L3M3NT builds towards his upcoming EP. Beyond the artists he has already worked with, he is in discussions for potential collaborations with Fameye, O’Kenneth, M.anifest, Joey B, DopeNation, King Promise, Sarkodie and Stonebwoy. While those collaborations are not yet confirmed, the conversations point to the range of Ghanaian voices he is looking to bring into the project.
For 3L3M3NT, the upcoming EP represents another step in an evolving career that has taken him through different sounds, countries and creative spaces.
