I’ll shut down GHAMRO and MUSIGA if I were the tourism and arts minister – Dblack
In a recent interview with Ghana web’s Elsie Lamar, Ghanaian musician and entrepreneur D-Black, boldly declared his intention to dissolve the Ghana Music Rights Organization (GHAMRO) and the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA) if he were to become Ghana’s Minister of Tourism, Arts, and Culture.
Expressing his frustration, the music producer and talent manager highlighted the inefficiency of these organizations in addressing the concerns of musicians, particularly regarding royalties and their rights.
“MUSIGA as well…we have seen different presidents come and go but there is nothing we can speak about at the top of our voices we can call and say this body has done something tangible for musicians in our country,” he added.
D-Black further expressed his commitment to fostering growth within the industry. He promised to introduce capacity-building initiatives that would empower key players with the knowledge and skills necessary to drive the music industry forward.
He stressed the importance of investing in people, vowing to set up training programs aimed at boosting the capabilities of industry professionals and promoting overall prosperity in the sector.

“I will educate the music industry, especially business executives on how the industry has changed over the years. A lot of artistes have managers who they trust, childhood friends, a lot of training has to go in that to make our industry viable,” he remarked.
