Ghanaian disc jockey and musician, DJ Azonto, who considers himself a highly sought-after artist in Ghana, asserts that he will not settle for anything less than $1 million to perform at any Sarkodie show.
« I will not accept less than a million dollars to perform for Sarkodie at any of his future events, » he said. His statement follows claims he made about being paid $80,000 to perform at Medikal’s upcoming 02 Arena event in the United Kingdom.
According to the « Fa No Fom » hitmaker, he sees himself as a top Ghanaian music star with a distinct brand who deserves to be paid more.
« When you book me for a show, I will deliver value for the money spent. That is why I will not charge less than a million to perform for Sarkodie at any of his shows, » he said.
« I considered Medikal’s $80,000 offer because I consider him a brother after working as his DJ for many years, and he has been good to me, » he claimed. « He has already booked an expensive hotel for me and my squad, and we plan to rock the 02 Arena in a few weeks. »
DJ Azonto went on to say, « I was one of the few Ghanaian artists who could start a concert trend because of my unique stage presence and several successful songs. »
He has performed on some major music stages, most notably his energetic appearance at the Ghana Music Awards UK event last year.
