Several musicians have come out to express their anger over the amount of money paid to them by Music Copyright Society of Kenya (MCSK) as royalties for their music.
Most musicians have been paid a meagre Ksh 2,530 as royalties collected for the whole year. Khaligraph Jones angrily fired at MCSK after he received his earning.
The rapper vowed that he would one day storm into MCSK office and cause havoc. He further said that he would rather have people pirate his music than have MCSK sending him peanuts as royalties.
“MCSK Siku Moja Tutakuja Kuwavuruga uko Mbaya Sana, Msijaribu kunitumia izi peanuts tena, Infact I have given Authorization for my Music to be pirated, Don’t collect money on my Behalf anymore, Nisiskie mmeshika mtu akicheza Wimbo zangu kwa street, msinitumie izo peanuts zenu tena, The OG shall be respected #mrinternational,” wrote a vexed Khaligraph Jones.
