The Ghana Music Rights Organisation (GHAMRO) has announced that payment of royalties to members of the collective society which began yesterday will end in January 2022.
According to GHAMRO, “This year’s distribution will be in two folds, the General and the Title Specific which also includes monies received from CAPASSO of South Africa for works used on the online digital platforms.”
Whilst the general distribution will ensure that right owners receive royalty payments across board, the title specific will cater for monitored logs from local networks and the online streaming distribution.
A statement issued by the Public Relations Officer of GHAMRO, Prince Tsegah, said in order to provide access for the benefit of right owners, GHAMRO shall soon publish the names of artiste/right owners whose works have accrued royalties to enable them update and regularise the documentation needed.
