“I’ve never received Royalties from GHAMRO” – Ypee laments

Ghanaian rapper Ypee Baakop3 has opened up about the financial benefits he has gained since he started his career as an artist in the Ghanaian music industry.

In a recent interview, Ypee Baakop3 shared that he had made substantial money from his music catalogs.

The rapper also stated that he has never received any money from the Ghana Music Rights Organization (GHAMRO) as royalties for his works since he entered the Ghanaian music industry in 2018.

He said: “I have never received any royalties from GHAMRO.”
Ypee joked that he did not expect to receive considerable monies from GHAMRO as royalties if an artiste like Esther Smith earned only GH₵500.00 from the organization despite being a veteran with many songs to her credit.

He said:

“If Esther Smith is earning GH₵500.00 from GHAMRO, how much do you expect me to get? Esther Smith released a lot of songs from way back and she earned only that amount.”

The Didi Me Botom hitmaker added that he had never received a call from the organisation concerning royalty payments.
