Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Hiplife musician, Natty Borax, has exclaimed that the royalties they get from the Ghana Music Right Organization (GHAMRO) are insulting.
Borax informed the three sages listening to Onua Fm’s Efie Ne Fie drive-time program that he had received royalties from the station. The type of royalties paid by Ghamro to musicians in this nation, however, are an insult to the artiste.
Dr. Prekese was informed by the artist who signed a five-year deal with MOSKITOE Entertainment that he had not heard from GHAMRO in two years.
“I have hit songs like Aseeho, Nana Yaa, Pantoma, Tene won, and all my songs. For two years, I didn’t receive any royalties from GHAMRO because of Covid. The outfit only gave me only Ghs320 as my royalties. Is this not an insult?” he questioned.
He further stated that Carlos Sakyi’s administration was better than Rex Omar’s regime.
“And the funny thing is, Ghs 320 was two years of accumulated royalties that they’ve not paid. I called Rex Omar and asked, Why? Am I an emerging artist? Couldn’t you have given me just 1000 Ghs? Carlos Sakyi’s administration was better.
“So if I wasn’t working what would happen to me? Elsewhere, an artist with just one hit song will enjoy a huge amount of royalty till his deathbed,” he bemoaned.
