Avril’s Suggestions On How Artists Can Start Making REAL Money From Music

Avril was once in an interview with George Kariuki, where George remarked that she has only been in the industry for a relatively short time. He asked her whether Kenya has reached a point where it is now possible for artists to make a proper living solely from music alone. She had some choice words for the interviewer, where she said:

“I could say we are getting there. Making a living out of music requires quite a lot, because we have to have a system that works in the first place. If I release a song, it should be EVERYWHERE in its time. If I release an album, there should be a distribution system. So once you get a system in place, I think it would be much easier.”

On the thorny issue of the music copyright society, she said:

“Once MCSK is on board with everything, once we have a system, we can make a living out of music.”
