The multiple award-winning artiste Stonebwoy disclosed recently during his clash with GHAMRO that he has only received an amount of GHc2,000 as royalties from the organization since he became an artist in Ghana.
The new artist to join the accusation train is Hiplife artiste Kwaw Kese. According to him, he has relocated abroad due to royalties issues in Ghana. He disclosed that he has been doing music for 20-years but he has never received any money from GHAMRO.
I have been doing music in Ghana for like 20 years and giving back to back hits, but I never received anything in terms of copyright, royalty, or any money that is due me, so I had to channel my energy to a different vibe, to a place where they will appreciate me and pay me for my efforts,” the rapper born Emmanuel Kofi Botchwey told Hitz FM.
