He likened it to having your song played at a personal event like a birthday party, where no monetary compensation would be expected.

However, Barima Sidney highlighted that if a song is used for advertising purposes, such as in a TV or radio jingle, then the artist is entitled to compensation.

He emphasized that in such cases, legal action can be taken to ensure that the artist is appropriately compensated.
