Ghanaian disc jockey and musician, DJ Azonto, has stirred controversy with his declaration that he will demand a staggering one million dollars to grace the stage at any of Sarkodie's future concerts. The statement comes hot on the heels of Azonto's revelation that he's slated to perform at Medikal's upcoming 02 Arena event in the United Kingdom, allegedly for a hefty $80,000 fee.
Asserting his worth in the music industry, the "Fa No Fom" hitmaker emphasized his unique brand and stellar track record, proclaiming, "When you book me for a show, I will deliver value for the money spent." Azonto justified his acceptance of Medikal's offer, citing their longstanding camaraderie and Medikal's gestures of goodwill, including lavish accommodations for Azonto and his entourage.
Azonto further highlighted his potential to ignite concert trends, citing his electrifying performances and a string of chart-topping hits. Notably, Azonto's dynamic stage presence was showcased at last year's Ghana Music Awards UK event, solidifying his status as a force to be reckoned with in the Ghanaian music scene.
The announcement adds fuel to the ongoing debate surrounding artist fees and industry standards, sparking speculation about the financial dynamics of Ghana's music landscape. As fans and industry insiders await Sarkodie's response, DJ Azonto's bold stance underscores the evolving dynamics of artist compensation in the modern music industry.
