Ugandan musician Joshua Baraka has publicly addressed the issue of underpayment within the music industry, revealing that many people refuse to pay him according to his established rate card.

Baraka expressed frustration with individuals who attempt to leverage familiarity to undervalue his work. “Most people don’t want to pay me based on my rate card. They pretend to be so familiar with me that I don’t deserve that much,” he stated.

The artist emphasized the significant financial investment he makes in his music career and stressed the importance of receiving fair compensation for his work. “I put in a lot of money into my craft, and I expect returns worth my rate card,” he added. This statement highlights the growing conversation about fair compensation for artists, especially those like Baraka, who have garnered international recognition.
