Nigerian singer Harrysong has urged the government to put proper systems in place to protect artists’ work and tackle widespread music piracy.
The Afrobeats star made this call yesterday during a Youth Forum programme, saying that government intervention was crucial in solving these problems and called for open dialogue between policymakers and experienced industry players.
HARRYSONG lamented that Nigerian artists struggle to generate income from their local fan base due to widespread music piracy, pushing many to seek financial opportunities abroad.
The ‘Reggae Blues’ crooner emphasised the need for a proper structure to ensure transparency and accountability within the industry, insisting that without such systems, it becomes difficult to reinvest earnings locally or to host profitable concerts in Nigeria.
