Popular Ghanaian musician Bisa Kdei has dismissed speculation about a possible political career, stating his priority is to strengthen the operations of the Ghana Music Rights Organization (GHAMRO).
In a recent interview, Bisa Kdei explained that while public service in politics has its appeal, his passion lies in addressing the challenges facing Ghana’s music industry.
He highlighted inefficiencies within GHAMRO, including issues related to royalty collection and distribution, as areas where he believes he can make a meaningful impact.
The musician emphasized the need for transparency, accountability, and modernization in the management of music rights, noting that these reforms are crucial to supporting local artists and ensuring they are fairly compensated for their work.

By choosing to focus on GHAMRO, the award-winning musician is signaling a commitment to institutional change that could have a lasting effect on Ghanaian music and the welfare of local creators.
