The Cameroon music producers are fed up with the so many irregularities
in the music industry as concern their sector of work. They are no longer
finding it funny anymore.
Many artists need the services of producers in one way or the other either by making beats, mastering an entire song or just recording the artists. However, as it has been the case for a very long while now, many artists walk into recording studios and do their work and abuse that of the producers by either not funding their right bills or paying far too little that demanded of them. The producers think that it’s time for this uncalled for attitude to cease.
Artists walk into recording studios majestically, get into
the recording booth and rant about how they got a million dollar crib and cars
yet cannot pay for their own art. Is this not a call for concern? When will
this end if it is tolerated? Or is the music industry just for the artists or
the producer too.
One of the top music producers and beat maker of Cameroon by the name Slim Beatz
sent out this press release calling for all producers to meet and discuss what
is at stake under the slogan “LE BEAT N’EST PAS NJOH,U NAKAM U PAYAM”
translated as THERE IS NO FREE BEAT,U MAKE THE BEAT U PAY FOR IT. The press
release said and I quote
“Some people say respect is earned but in the Cameroonian
music industry today you have to force it on the faces and minds of those who
continually disrespect the aspect of Music production and even the music
producers.For people to respect what we do,we need to be professionals in every
aspect of it.If you know you are a beat maker,or Music producer then make it a
must to be in Douala on Sunday the 8th of April for an official meeting.
Venue : Douala Ndokoti Bonga Juice Bar 4pm Prompt
#LEBEAT N'ESTPASNJOH.
God bless y'all.”
Musicians please start paying for your production. Lets keep the right platform.
