Awards-winning Dancehall\/Reggae artiste, Stonebowy has revealed why he is not a<\/p>\n

member of the\u00a0Ghana Music Right Organisation (GHAMRO)<\/p>\n

According to him there is absolutely nothing about GHAMRO that attracts him to register or become a member.<\/p>\n

The Burniton Music boss however stated that an institution like GHAMRO, working<\/p>\n

in the interest of Ghanaian musicians should intensify its awareness creation.<\/p>\n

He is certain that when structured policies are made to function and very detailed<\/p>\n

accountability is demanded by people at the helm of such institutions, then<\/p>\n

the music industry will experience an unprecedented turnover.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere could be enough laws but if they\u2019re not working or the people in charge aren\u2019t\u00a0<\/em>making it work for us then I think we should re-visit and make it work.\u201d\u00a0<\/em>He noted in an interview on Hitz FM with Andy Dosty.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

When asked by one of the pundits if he has received any royalties from GHAMRO,<\/p>\n

Stonebwoy replied no, adding that he had no idea how GHAMRO works.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet that not be the new issue, I don\u2019t know nothing over there. I\u2019m not trying to bash or insult but a drive on the interest isn\u2019t really there so I said a big artiste like myself don\u2019t know anything.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Check:https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/gh\/fake-luxury-life-celebrities-demanded-pay-car-loans\/<\/a><\/p>\n

But He [My Manager] has actually spoken to me about this whole GHAMRO issue once or twice, but sincerely speaking I do not see any interest.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThis could be my fault because, at the end of the day, I\u2019m supposed to get to know but is there really anything interesting about them.<\/em><\/h3>\n

Nothing interests me to know to say Yes this is what I have to do. Originally there should be steps like you buy a car and you know that DVLA doesn\u2019t have to approach you but you have to. <\/em><\/p>\n

DVLA does advert to create awareness but in this case [GHAMRO], it has to be attracted and the laws should work.\u201d<\/em> Stonebwoy said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Meanwhile, most registered members of GHAMRO have complained bitterly about the<\/p>\n

meagre royalties they receive. Other artistes have vented their spleen on GHAMRO<\/p>\n

over their unpaid royalties since they became members of the institution.<\/p>\n
