Musical artist, Asha Gangali, has said that the Musical Copyright Society of Nigeria (MCSN), has solved the problem of royalty for artistes.

According to him, the system is now transparent and this in turn has destroyed the royalty problem artistes often have in the industry.

He said, “MCSN has solved the problem of royalty management with the deployment of the Gocreate royalty distribution system. Everything is being done digitally and transparently to everyone within the value chain.

“The system is a decentralised solution which has eradicated human error in royalty administration at MCSN.”

He also talked about how his appointment with his colleagues has guided new moves in the industry. Gandali spoke of the benefits from the Organization.

He said, “My appointment as a director of MCSN alongside Sunny Neji and Mathew Ohio was a move in the right direction. It will usher in a pivotal change in the licensing sector of the entertainment industry.

“Now that the sector is being translated into a digital ecosystem, my in-depth knowledge of copyright licensing administration will complement the positive efforts being made by the CMO to restructure the copyright and sound recording licensing landscape.”

“MCSN will protect the rights of musicians and ensure that artistes, songwriters and producers get their mechanical and performance royalties promptly.

“Also, MCSN has activated new streams of revenue for musicians through its strategic partnership with the Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria.

“The partnership allows licensing of live performances. This particular royalty had been left uncollected for many years,” Gandali said.
