Reginald Yaw Asante Osei, also known as Reggie Rockstone, has opened up about the issue of corruption within the music industry and the unfair practices of digital streaming platforms.
In a recent interview with Amansan Krakye, Reggie Rockstone expressed his concerns about the prevalence of streaming farms and the impact they have on musicians.
He revealed that streaming platforms such as Spotify and Boomplay are raking in huge profits at the expense of artists.
Reggie Rockstone highlighted the fact that the massive number of streams some musicians receive may not be legitimate, as they could be generated artificially through streaming farms. This, he argued, contributes to the corruption that has seeped into the music industry.
Furthermore, Reggie Rockstone pointed out the unequal distribution of revenue, with foreign entities profiting more from the hard work of local artists.
He emphasized the need to address this imbalance and ensure that musicians receive fair compensation for their work.
In light of these issues, Reggie Rockstone called for a closer examination of the corrupt practices within the music industry and urged stakeholders to take action to rectify the situation.
He stressed the importance of protecting the interests of local artists and ensuring that they are not exploited for the benefit of others.
