KOD also voiced his concern about the impact of limited funding on those in the creative industry. He went on to discuss strategies for navigating these financial challenges.
He highlights Stonebwoy as potentially the most diligent musician in Ghana for 2023. However, he questions the local impact and the ability to measure Stonebwoy’s success. He expresses doubt about accurately assessing the artist’s earnings from copyright, especially if Stonebwoy relies solely on Ghana’s copyright system. KOD implies that expanding beyond local boundaries could be beneficial.
