Mafala!- Willy Paul, KRG, Gabu In Rage After Receiving ‘Peanut’ Payments From PRISK (Screenshot)

Kenyan musical artists are up in arms against the Performers Rights Society of Kenya, after they received 4-figure payments from them.

Performers Rights Society of Kenya (PRISK) is a collective management organization licensed by the Kenya Copyright Board; to represent performers in musical and dramatic works.

It manages performers rights effectively and efficiently through; collecting remuneration on behalf of various users and performers; then distributes royalties to those rights holders.

Monkey Business

The organization is now locking horns with several artists over their payments. Krg the Don, Willy Paul, Gabu, among others, have expressed their predicaments over the same.

Krg has written on his Instagram;

”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Prisk hizi peanuts mnatuma kwa simu yangu nifanyie nini!!! This is the biggest joke of 2021 after collecting billions of ksh #SMH”

Gabu commented on Krg’s post complaining over the same;

”Ufala sana .Hata mimi nimepata same amount.Hiyo office ile siku tutaingia hapo watajua sisi ni akina nani.Motherf***ker”

Willy Paul also expressed his disappointment on Instagram saying;

”Kijana soap soap alafu PRISK inanitumia 1000??? Sawa tu mafala! ”

This is not the first time artists are receiving peanuts from such an organization. We remember last time MCSK (Music Copyright Society Of Kenya), did the same. Something that made artists more aggressive. I bet some have decided to keep quiet over the issue.
