khemmiesings: How about all the dancers and models start collecting royalties too 😅.

tommybomb_official: It will make sense if you cut down your price and still do a good job.

swatta_p: The dancers and make up artist should get royalty too, even we the viewers suppose dey get 10% too. Omo weyrey 😂😂.

phunkeey_boutique: Hmmmm, after charging millions to shoot the video. Hmmm.

mrmoonwalka: This idea is very far fetched from reality. As an artiste after you split royalties with producer, then split with featured artiste/ then split with label , what is left is just the artist self esteem😂. There is no realistic chance for this 10 percent.

josmartofficial: Una don start No be only 10% royalties na 100% aside music producer nobody get right for music royalties go and read about music business.

dh_adoyi: If you want that then reduce the cost of production. If I pay you millions to shoot a video why do you want royalties ? Start collaborating with the artiste for a cut of the streaming profits.

bollybanty_official: This guy na scam!!!😠😠. Tell him if he’ll not collect initial payment and wait for only 10% royalty make hin see if na sand ppl dey see money do music video.
