DJs Union Of Ghana Set To Change Attitude Towards Royalties

DJs Union of Ghana (DJUGA) has maintained that it will join the fight to change the attitude of Ghanaians towards royalties.

The recently unveiled union which is the first of its kind will serve as an umbrella body for DJs in Ghana and secure a complete organization of all DJs for their mutual protection and advancement.

Pr for the organisation, Mercury Quaye in an interview on Hitz 103.9FM, maintained that the key to obtaining the maximum gains from employers is to formulate a better relationship with them.

“One of our core mandates is to regulate member’s relations with their employers for better working conditions”.

“We are going to work to maximize the employment and overall income of DJs and this is something that is really key to us as well as to protect and advance member’s knowledge of the art”.

Currently, there are many industry personalities including DJ of the year at the 2020 Ghana DJ Awards, Vyrusky, DJ Ikon, Andy Dosty Kuami Eugene, KiDi, and Mr Ahumah Bosco Ocansey who have pledged allegiance to the initiative.

“There are a lot of DJs out there who got into the job out of passion without any formal knowledge about the profession that they are into."

"So through DJUGA, these DJs are going to get the opportunity to get education through conferences, workshops that are going to be organized. So that at the end of the day every DJ gets to understand the rudiments of the profession”, Merqury Quaye continued

“When you have people in a certain craft who don’t understand the rudiment, there is chaos, there should be a code of conduct and that’s exactly what DJUGA stands for.”
