#Promozik : Meet GASHA ,the first Cameroonian artiste to shake Africa with a song that she ended up gaining $0 from it.

You cannot talk about a hit song without mentioning an artist like #Gasha . One of the biggest songs in Cameroon, "Be Proud," which featured many stars, was spiced up by the almighty Gasha.

Another song featuring Tzy Panchak was also spiced up by Gasha. Gasha has appeared in many songs, and all of these songs have become hits.

Her voice alone is magical, her lyrics are intentional, and they penetrate deep into the heart. Gasha is a treasure that everyone needs to hold very tight. If Gasha were out of this country, she could have filled the O2 Arena in no time.

Let's celebrate Gasha while she is here because she deserves it.

#musique : Eddy Kenzo lui-même partage enfin SA VERSION concernant les accusations de #Gasha .Ce qu'il a dit va vous choquer.

Ses propos exacts ; #Eddykenzo : 🗣️
« Salut à tous,vous croyez sérieusement à ce que Gasha dit, pour de vrai ! sans faire de recherche sérieusement ?

Pouvez-vous faire des recherches sur les revenues de cette chanson sur mes plateformes, est-ce que cela a un sens compte tenu du montant d'argent dont elle fait allusion ? quand ai-je reçu cet argent? Et de quelles sources 🤔 parle t-elle ?

5 millions de vues sur youtube, c'est comme 2 000 $, ou peut être moins, vérifiez cette chanson sur toutes mes plateformes et revenez avec une conclusion après des recherches, ne croyez pas à ce qu'on vous raconte sans au préalable avoir chercher la vérité, jugez d'un point de vue éclairé s'il vous plaît.

Elle ne m'a jamais payé pour faire cette chanson, elle a payé 1 000 $ pour prolonger mon vol de retour vers l'Afrique depuis l'Amérique, c'est tout.

Venu au Cameroun pour tourner la vidéo j'ai tout payé avec mon équipe on a réalisé la vidéo et on a fait le montage et l'étalonnage, de toute façon je ne voulais pas du tout parler de Gasha. Parce que je ne comprends pas, qu'est-ce que c'est maintenant ??

Gasha peut-elle apporter la preuve de ce dont elle parle ?

Mon peuple camerounais, je pense que nous pouvons faire mieux que cela pour être honnête.

J'attends la bonne information et je retire cette chanson immédiatement de toutes mes plateformes avec ou sans preuve, je vais la déposer
J'attendais juste la bonne information parce que je ne voulais pas la lâcher sans que, vous ne soyez au courant et pour que, vous disiez après que, j'ai pris sa part…>>

#Showbiz :
À propos de son conflit avec l'artiste ougandais Eddy Kenzo concernant les bénéfices de leur collaboration, l'artiste #Gasha dit que hein.... 🗣️🗣️

[ QUE CELUI QUI N'AIME PAS LA LECTURE TRAVERSE COMME L'OPEP PLEIN ]

I must say that I'm very disappointed in some Cameroonian bloggers who have decided to play the PR role free of charge for Eddy Kenzo's team.

Before Eddy Kenzo's manager got to you guys with the lies you people are posting, he dropped it in my inbox. I read through the story and it didn't connect. I asked him one question which was:
"what about the royalties of this chill song? What happened to the Money you people are generating from it?"
The manager refused to answer and that's where I told him to address Gasha publicly because she complained in public.

If Eddy Kenzo and team weren't guilty of anything, they would've released a press to address #Gasha and put the issue to bed. But what have they done? Snub Gasha, block platforms and accounts posting and tagging them, then moving inbox from one blog to another spreading lies.

You all are not Eddy Kenzo's PR. At times, you have to connect the dots, combine the two stories and see who is genuine and who is not. If Eddy Kenzo was genuine, he would've addressed this issue and not try to act like a fugitive.

Look at the screenshots below. That's Gasha's song which has been put on Sale by Eddy Kenzo. Do you know how much he has made for the past 9 years?

Do you people think Gasha is so generous that she'll pay $2000, transport you and your team to Cameroon, pay your accommodation and feed you for 1 week, then dash you the song to go and be making millions from it?

Do you know $2000 is above 7M Ugandan shillings?

Sylvie's blog and Mac Clint's blog I'm really disappointed in you guys. Instead of fighting for a fellow sister, you people are claiming first hand info "from Uganda to your inbox". LOL, hope Eddy Kenzo pays you guys for damage control work You've been doing for him.

All I've done these past days is dig deep for information and findings which made me realize Gasha had a case. Eddy Kenzo and the manager made it worse when they blocked Shey Waves. That's what fugitives do. Then someone told me, you're not supposed to trust a Ugandan or take their words seriously. Another person said Eddy Kenzo has been doing same to fellow countrymen.

That said, GASHA will be live on Shey Waves at 9pm tonight.

#SheyWaves

EDDY KENZO VOLeur ? 🙆🏽‍♂️😲🇺🇬
Voilà un molah qui tchop les do du mutumbu de notre sista #Gasha depuis 9 ans sans gui kikok à la nga🤲🏾
On parle ici d'un mutumbu de plus de 5 bâ de vues sur youtube🤌🏾

C'est le matta qui do l'actualité des page anglo du mboa 🇨🇲; waittez je vous djoss comment ça biguine.

Gasha a call le molah vers 2015 pour une collabo dans le mutumbu de la nga intitulé "CHILL" ; Le mbom a tok qu'elle doit buy 1000 dollars pour ça et la nga a buy.

Quand ils ont bolè de do le mutumbu, le gozomor encore ask 1000 dollars à la nga pour buy all ses droits sur le son là afta il n'aura plus kobo sur les revenus du mutumbu ; la nga a do les efforts et buy.

Mainant le ndèm biguine quand on puttam la chanson en ligne sur la chaîne de Eddy Kenzo passeuh il avait flop d'abonnés et une bêta influence.

C'est là que le molah de #Eddykenzo a comot la carte du #zoltan à la go et depuis from, même kikok il n'a pas gui à la nga.
Ce qui do même encore crich c'est qu'il a sissiah le mutumbu et réclamé all la propriété jusqu'à puttam le son dans son album et c'est mainant la go qui n'a plus de droit sur le mutumbu.

Non seulement il a sissiah le plus gros tube de la nga, mais il a snobé la nga chaque fois qu'on est go vers lui.

Voilà le genre de bahat que les gars do dans le showbiz et on ne know pas; plus de 9 ans que le Satah tchop les do des efforts de quelqu'un. 🤕

#Shey_Eugene_Brown I felt misunderstood on your recent post you did saying you are disappointed in me. Firstly when the guy who claimed to be #Eddykenzo management team member texted me I reach out to #Gasha telling her the someone from Kenzo team just reached out to me regarding the saga she said let's chat on WhatsApp mindfully all what I discuss the guy I screenshot it, and send to GASHA for clarity she even send me a voice note.

Like me seeing your tags and the one of #Itz_Biggjm asking #Itz_ode to caution I was like what did I post wrong My intention of posting those replies is pure, intending we should keep tagging Eddy Kenzo till he reacts but a lot of you guys misunderstood it and saying I have betrayed my own sister yam done yam no done.

Here is my own questioning part to the team not forgetting all what they said I screenshot it and send it to GASHA manager #Blackie .

To end this all those tagging Ode please he's not the one who did all those post.

Calabash CEO Wax Dey speaks out regarding the issue between #Gasha and Eddy Kenzo and some possibilities that Gasha can get her royalties.

He wrote, “Many people don’t realize that music is an intellectual estate just as land is real estate, and in many instances, intellectual estate can be far more profitable than real estate in the short and long term. But just like real estate, it needs to be handled formally like a business. You can’t sell or buy land with a verbal agreement.

I feel really sad that our sister has had to go through what she has gone through. Please stop tagging me. She knows how to get to me if she wanted to.

Let me explain a couple of things for the benefit of all artists. A recorded song has 2 components - the Master and the Publishing. The Master is the actual recording which is being sold and the publishing is the composition (lyrics, melody, arrangements)

I have read both sides of the story and this is what I have to say:

1. Whoever paid for the recording owns the Master, that is the right to sell the song. This is tricky because if Gasha paid for the recording then it belongs to her, but if Eddy Kenzo did, then it belongs to him, even if she is the artist. If Gasha released the song in 2015 and by mutual agreement, Eddy Kenzo release it on his own platforms a year later, it implies that they might have agreed to share the Master rights (in that order). Usually, you’d expect either party to get a cut of each other’s sales, but in the absence of a written agreement (split sheet), this becomes complex and difficult to resolve. To be fair, I’d say that #Eddykenzo had to pay sales royalties to Gasha from the sales of his album (which were substantially more than Gasha sold) and vice versa. So yea, I believe Eddy a Kenzo owes Gasha some money, even in the absence of a written Agreement. The complication now arises from how to enforce it without a written agreement or in this case, his word against her word.

2.publishing is composition money you get paid when your song is streamed on Tv, radio, public venues, streaming sites or even cellphones. If someone else remixes the song, you still own their publishing. Publishing wise, they both wrote their verses. They both should share the royalties. A share should also go to who arranged the song, and the lion’s share should probably be reserved for who wrote the hook + their verse. Again, there is no split sheet, so these are issues that need to be addressed by both teams and agreed on on paper. Somewhere around 2015, I did sign a publishing deal with Gasha which was applicable retrospectively (meaning that Calabash could go in search of her publishing money and enforce the receipt thereof), but in 2016, she requested to rescind the contract, and I did not object. But it is her right and she should protect it ASAP. In Zangalewa’s case, they were not even aware, so I took it upon myself to find them and sign a publishing deal which permitted us to work on it.

Also remember this: for every sale or digital sale, even for Callertunes, you still earn a publishing royalty. So she needs to go down the rabbit hole and look for all those earnings, and while fighting, make sure that they are protected now. The song has a long lifespan. Some of those incomes should have been controlled by Gasha even if Eddy Kenzo released on his channel. Unless they had an agreement that he would claim her rights and he did. Even so, he would have to pay her her cut.

These issues are complex and it’s best to work with a lawyer or someone with knowledge when doing collaborations. You cant blame Artists for the situations - I doubt even Eddy Kenzo understood what he was doing at the time. I even have a case with a big company such as MTN now where they do not understand what is use of a split sheet on music they paid for.

And as I said, both artist teams need to establish or enforce a written agreement now because the song is still active and earning revenue. Online hype is good, but it doesn’t get money in the bank.

🟥 Problem between the artists #Gasha and #Eddykenzo .🚨

After I texted Eddy Kenzo telling him to give GASHA her royalties on her song #chill , his team reach out to me on WhatsApp and this is what they got to say 👇

"It was around 2014 or 2015(the prime times of Sitya Loss) when Eddy Kenzo met a young and talented Cameroonian lady called Gasha, her team approached him and requested that they should do a song which was agreed upon. However he was in dallas where he had to fly from to Washington for the recording, we extended his stay and the $1k her and the team paid that we hear in the accusations was for the extension of his flight because his return back home was due (he definitely had to push his stay for a sister), obviously there’s no agreement that involves money that can go undocumented, the 1k was to pay for the extension of Eddy Kenzo’s stay and for your information Eddy Kenzo’s brand was never worth 1k. Long story short, they hit the studio, vibes were high and a song called chill was created. Everyone wrote their lyrics and joined the knowledge to make sure we put out something nice that can help boost Gasha’s career.

In 2015 our team and our manager who doubles as a videographer, flew to Cameroon(at our own cost) to shoot the Chill video which was shot and directed by our manager(Martin Beta) and Chuzzi Dadido of Cameroon it was all good vibes and later that evening as we were all vibing to the song at Gasha’s home we talked about how the song will be released and it was agreed that since Eddy Kenzo has a big fanbase(numbers) this song should be released on his channel on 25th feb, 2015 and later on then coming album called Zero To Hero(which was released on 1st march, 2016) a year after she had distributed on her other streaming platforms(her release date is 3rd March 2015), we did so with one heart all in the name of helping a sister.

We had a great evening as a family and we called it a night. On our return to Uganda our manager went back with the footage we had shot and edited the video(it was all for brotherhood he wasn’t paid) we made sure it was the right video of that time and released it as agreed.

We thank God that it actually made an impact in Gasha’s career as it was the motive of the song.

It is so sad this was a verbal agreement and today it looks like her word against ours , it is now that we wish we had a written agreement.

We have been following accusations for the past 1 year and kept quiet because we thought our sister knows the truth and that all will be well and there was no need for any exchange of words, but it seems we were wrong.

However, this is all we have to say about this project and we maintain our position that we ain’t gonna exchange any words with a sister over a project that came to life with the aim of boosting a career. And we shall not fall for any blackmails attached to the accusations.

Big Talent Entertainment Management".

🚨 Eddy Kenzo mange le fruit du travail de Gasha depuis près d’une décennie et cela doit cesser !! 🚑

L'artiste camerounaise #Gasha et Eddy Kenzo ont collaboré en 2015 sur le tube #chill . Eddy Kenzo a demandé 1 000 $ pour la collaboration et Gasha a payé. Après avoir enregistré la chanson, Eddy Kenzo a déclaré que Gasha pouvait acheter sa voix, ses droits et tout ce qui concerne la chanson pour 1 000 $ supplémentaires. Gasha et son équipe ont accepté et ont tout payé en Amérique.

Ils ont enregistré la chanson, produit la vidéo et se sont entendus pour la télécharger sur la chaîne YouTube de Kenzo, car il avait une audience plus large.

Cela fait 9 ans que la chanson a été mise en ligne, elle a enregistré 5,1 millions de vues sur YouTube mais Gasha n'en a jamais vu un centime. 😢 😰

Le plus douloureux, c'est que #Eddykenzo a revendiqué la propriété de la chanson et l'a mise en ligne sur toutes ses plateformes de streaming. Il est allé jusqu'à l'inclure dans son album et en a réalisé des millions.
Gasha s'est plaint et ils n'ont rien fait. Ils ne sont jamais revenus vers Gasha avec les statistiques ou le retour sur investissement du projet.

Je pense que c'est un manque de respect et un vol. Vol et manque de respect non seulement envers Gasha mais aussi envers le Cameroun. Nous avons la responsabilité de défendre et de lutter pour les intérêts des artistes. Ce combat est aussi pour le respect de notre pays.

Rejoignons-nous et faisons savoir à toute l'Afrique, à l'Ouganda et au monde entier à quel point ce type a été douteux envers un autre artiste.

J'appelle toutes les plateformes, influenceurs, personnalités médiatiques, chaque camerounais à user de leur influence pour faire obéir ou dénoncer #Eddykenzo puisqu'il ignore #Gasha depuis maintenant 9 ans. GASHA mérite ce sur quoi Eddy Kenzo est assis depuis 9 ans. Faisons en sorte que cela se produise.

💥 Merci Shey Waves d'avoir sonné cette alarme !!!😢

Let’s Make This Viral!!
Eddy Kenzo has been eating the fruit of Gasha’s labor for close to a decade and this has to stop!!

Cameroonian singer #Gasha and Eddy Kenzo collaborated in 2015 on the #chill hit song. Eddy Kenzo demanded $1000 for the collabo and Gasha paid. After recording the song, Eddy Kenzo said Gasha can buy his voice, rights and everything about the song for another $1000. Gasha and team agreed, paid everything in America.

They recorded the song, produced the video and had a mutual understanding to upload it on Kenzo's YouTube channel since he had a bigger audience.

It's been 9 years since the song was uploaded, it has recorded 5.1M YouTube views but Gasha has never seen a dime from it.

The most painful part of it is that #Eddykenzo claimed ownership of the song and uploaded it on all his streaming platforms. He went as far as including it in his album and has been making millions of it.

Gasha complained and they did nothing about it. They've never gotten back to Gasha with stats or ROI of the project.

I believe this is disrespect and theft. Theft and disrespect not only to Gasha but Cameroon as well. We have that responsibility to defend and fight for our own. This fight is also for the respect of our country.

Let's join and make the whole Africa, Uganda and world know how dubious this guy has been to a fellow artist.

I call on all platforms, influencers, media personalities, every Cameroonian to use their influence in making Eddy Kenzo comply or exposed since they've ignored Gasha for 9 years now. GASHA deserves what Eddy Kenzo has been sitting on for 9 years. Let's make this happen.

Thank you Shey Waves for raising this alarm!!!

"EDDY KENZO IS A BUSINESS SHARK, SITTING ON MY MILLIONS"~GASHA.

In 2015, Gasha from Cameroon invited Upandan, singer, Eddy kenzo for a collaboration. She paid for everything, flew the artist from East Africa to Cameroon for his voice and video shoot. The ***** le of the song is #chill , a hit song which later on became a classic. Gasha said she paid $2000 dollars for this collaboration and owned the song 100%.

Gasha trusted Eddy Kenzo and team to do the distribution and bring back the royalties garnered from this huge project. The song amassed huge numbers on several streaming platforms. The song is currently on more than 5 million YouTube views. A rough calculation as per the streams only on YouTube stands at $8,393, which is approximately 5M FCFA. This is just for YouTube alone and there are other platforms where the song was distributed.

Gasha thought the Pan-Africanism and musical chemistry they shared at the time will make Eddy Kenzo respect their agreement. Surprisingly, Eddy Kenzo is sitting on all the income generated from the chill song.

It's been almost 10 years and Gasha is still to receive a dime from him. Gasha has run out of patience after the efforts made by her were snubbed. 🥺

"That's awesome! If he can pay me even some of the money they made off my hit song #chill , it will be even better. They stole my rights and have kept quiet till date. attempted to fix it, they pretended they wanted to fix it, and went mute. Sometimes people do great things to be admired by others, but they break serious principles in real life which cripples others. He is feeding Orphans, beautiful but sometimes can't feed the ones love, and he's sitting on my millions. God will judge this matter."~~~Gasha made this comment under a post they made praising the Ugandan Singer's charity efforts. It didn't end there as she also made several revelations in an interview via Dash Media TV.

"Eddy Kenzo Stole My money. He made over $400K( 243.4M FCFA) from one platform. At one time it was his best selling project. He put his name as the main Artist of our song Chill and removed my name. I paid $2,000 for the collaboration, people think it was free. I paid for the rights to his voice and i had 100% ownership. He came to our house and we shot the video, i was not putting business in front because i could not imagine that he was a business shark and he had ulterior motives"

This means Eddy Kenzo owes Gasha hundreds of millions in Francs CFA. What a "vulturistic" move from the Ugandan artist.
