Ghanaian Hiplife music duo, Keche has expressed their frustration over the lack of substantial royalties being received by Ghanaian musicians from The Ghana Music Rights Organization (GHAMRO).
In an interview with Shobiz TV, the ‘No Dulling’ hitmakers disclosed that despite their numerous hit songs such as ‘Pressure’, ‘Something Must Happen’, ‘No Dulling’ among others, they have not received royalties amounting to or exceeding GHC500. They also pointed out that even top artists like Sarkodie, Shatta Wale, and Stonebwoy have not received royalties amounting to GHC10,000 or GHC20,000.
“Up till now, tell me have you met any artiste who can say he’s received royalties like GHC10,000? No. A whole artiste like Sarkodie, Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy, nobody has taken GHC10,000 before and its very bad. I become emotional when it comes to these things. For so many years with many hits, Keche name them, GHAMRO has not even given us even GHC500, not even 200 or 100 so somebody like me why do I go for a meeting,” they noted.
