Who says music does not pay? Maybe the underground artistes are those not earning that much because with the amount of money Peace FM entertainment review quoted on their Saturday, July 11 show after their research, some musicians are really making it big.
The show hosted by Kwasi Aboagye announced the amount some musicians charge per show.
Sarkodie, E.L, Amakye Dede, Kojo Antwi, Gasmilla, Kwabena Kwabena and many others cash appeared on the list.
Producer of the show, Eugene who led the research said some of the musicians especially Daddy Lumba said he at times perform for free and that is based on the relationship he has with the event organiser.
In the research, Eugene Osafo Nkansah who did the research said he contacted some artistes, artiste’s managers, artiste’s publicist, event organisers and other music stakeholders.
He again added that Joyce Blessing became the only gospel musician whose cash was known because she has been on most shows the past years.
