DJ Azonto and Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia
Ghana's Amapiano king, DJ Azonto, has made a bold statement about how his "Fa No Fom" song has increased the popularity of Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia since it was used at his political events.
DJ Azonto asserts that his musical talent has not only enhanced the popularity of the NPP's Flagbearer for the 2024 elections but has also made people appreciate his dance moves.
While speaking on the Central Prime Time show, DJ Azonto emphasized the impact of his music on the Vice President's political events.
"Ever since Dr. Bawumia used 'Fa No Fom' in his campaign, his popularity has skyrocketed. People are singing it everywhere, and it has become an anthem. I have made Dr. Bawumia more popular than ever before," DJ Azonto added.
The award-winning artist is still awaiting some form of compensation for the use of his song.
"I initially requested $10 million as compensation, and I stand by that request. Music isn't just entertainment; it's my livelihood. When my work is used on such a grand stage, it deserves proper acknowledgment and reward," DJ Azonto stated.
The "Fa No Fom" hitmaker remains hopeful that his contribution will be acknowledged.
"I respect Dr. Bawumia and the positive message he is trying to convey. However, respect also means recognizing the value of each other's work. I am optimistic that my request for compensation will be honored," Azonto concluded.
