Ghanaian
hitmaker
DJ
Azonto
is
demanding
$100
million
from
the
National
Democratic
Congress
(NDC)
for
using
his
song
without
his
consent.
According
to
the
DJ-turned-musician
in
a
press
statement
the
NDC
in
one
of
their
campaign
tours
played
his
hit
song
Fa
no
Fom
without
seeking
his
approval.
He
went
on
to
say
that
because
of
the
failure
of
the
party
to
seek
his
approval
before
using
his
song,
he
is
therefore
demanding
$100
million
from
the
party
for
copyright
infringement.
The
statement
reads;
“The
Rolls
Royce
Family,
management
of
DJ
Azonto,
wishes
to
officially
address
the
recent
developments
regarding
the
use
of
DJ
Azonto’s
hit
song
“Fa
No
Fom”
during
the
National
Democratic
Congress
(NDC)
campaign.
Currently
known
as
Ice
Boss,
DJ
Azonto’s
chart-topping
single,
which
has
captured
the
hearts
of
millions,
was
played
at
an
NDC
rally
without
prior
authorization
from
the
artiste
or
his
management.
In
light
of
this,
Ice
Boss,
through
his
management,
is
seeking
a
compensation
of
$100
million
from
the
NDC
for
the
use
of
his
intellectual
property.”
