This move is significant within the music industry, especially in Africa, where traditional record label deals often entail sacrificing artistic freedom and financial control. With emPawa Africa’s innovative approach, artists like Tekno have the opportunity to be actively involved in the label’s growth while securing their own stake in the industry.
Overall, this partnership sets a precedent for a more artist-friendly music landscape in Africa, where creativity and financial empowerment go hand in hand. It’s a groundbreaking step towards reshaping the dynamics of the music industry on the continent.
