Kwabena Kwabena, Ofori Amponsah, Tinny, KK Fosu Didn’t Pay Me For Producing Their Songs – Producer

Ghanaian music producer, Sede3 has bemoaned how little he has to show for after working as a producer for so many years.

Sede3 is known for producing great acts such as Kwabena Kwabena, Ofori Amponsah, Tinny,

KK Fosu and even Nigeria’s 2Face.

That notwithstanding, Sede3, also known as Sidi, in an interview with Andy Dosty on Daybreak

‘Hitz on Hitz FM said he hasn’t been paid for more of the hit songs he has produced.

“Actually it wasn’t supposed to be for free but I was thinking that they would come back and say okay ‘Kwame this is what you have done for me and this is what I’m supposed to pay you for’ but nobody came back to ,” he lamented.

Sede3 explained that, when one starts off as a producer, they are excited about what they do and

therefore want people to see their work without looking at the business aspect of it.

“When you start growing up you notice those are the mistakes that you did,” he added.

Asked if he goes into an agreement with the musicians, Sede3 explained that he goes into a

two-way agreement with them that either they pay him outright or when the song becomes successful, they then pay him.

“All of these people will agree…trust me when you get the things done, they have hits out of them, they don’t even mention your name.

At least if you don’t make money, you even expect to get your name out there which could produce you money but these people don’t even mention your name,” he bemoaned.

He was however quick to add that, “if I [have] a vocal contract with you, it doesn’t mean I don’t have a contract with you.”

“From the beginning, we produce for people like this expecting them to at least comeback and say [thank you],” he stressed.

He however noted that he believes he needs a music lawyer to handle these issues for him.

Known for co-producing 2Face’s smash hit ‘See Me So’, Sede3 explained that he “didn’t have

a contract with [2Face]…” but he got “something small” from producing that song.
