Stay Jay, a well-known musician also known as William Johnson, has come to the defense of GHAMRO, the Ghana Music Rights Organization.
He affirms that he receives his monthly royalties and believes that the system is working effectively despite accusations of mismanagement.
Stay Jay shared in an interview on Onua FM that he receives at least GH₵20,000 every month.
Asked how his story is different from that of his colleagues, he said that “you have to know where to channel yourself to. When you go there and you register with them, they take all your royalties and everything for you everywhere. When you give them the chance, they will do it for you.”
In his view, registering with GHAMRO is not enough and artiste must make conscious efforts to do constant follow-ups and have representatives.
“You go there, speak to them and they show you everything you have to do and you follow it.”
