I perfectly understand how big the group-P-Square is when it comes to African music. Same way, BET Award winner–Sarkodie and the Tema based group-R2Bees are not also guinea pigs when it comes to African music and talent.
How can one justify paying P-Square $200,000 to perform in Ghana
alongside Sarkodie and R2Bees when the latter persons are being paid
ONLY 10,000 Ghana cedis (5,000 dollars).
According to PeaceFm (Ghana), “BET Awards
winner Sarkodie and Dynamic duo R2Bees who have been billed to Perform
alongside Pan Africa group P-Square; for the Malta Guinness sponsored
“Top of the World Celebration” Concert have threatened to pull out of
the show if organizers do not pay them $20, 000 and $10, 000 respectively”.
Even still, i am surprised. Really? Is that how much these musicians
think they are worth if P-Square is cashing in 200,000 dollars?
Personally, I think they should multiple their request by 4…
It is being reported that, the organizers of the event-Charter House “are not ready to pay the Ghanaian artistes that much so they may order all media houses to hold on with all commercials of the event which has names of the two artistes whiles they look for other artistes to replace them, if they are not able to come to an agreement with the two artistes by end of today”.
As much as we all love Psquare and appreciate their efforts when it
comes to bringing us good entertainment, I think Sarkodie and R2Bees
should not even threaten, they should just pull out or else,to aviod
event promoters and other event organizers continuing to undermine their worth and talent.
