To Log Or Not To Log… MCSK Issues Ultimatum to All Music Broadcasters
It has been a tug of war for some but the lines have been drawn in a certainly clear way…all radio stations will have to submit their log sheets to MCSK without fail.
Er, log sheets provide information regarding the material broadcasted and with this information MCSK is able to ensure that artist get their due pay for their work. The enforcement of this is what has been previously derailing MCSK efforts to collect due royalties owed to artists in Kenya.
The Radio stations are not protesting and are actually collaborating in a new move that will see the local musician pocket more in the payout period of royalties. Notably are the regional radios broadcasting stations many which signed agreements with MCSK to facilitate the policy enforcement.
It appears to log or not to is no longer the question and thus all music broadcasters have no option but give the artists’ their dues.
