Artiste Maame, the mother of popular music producer and singer Ogidi Brown, is threatening to take her son to the Copyright Office over a disagreement regarding the profit-sharing arrangement for their latest single, “Tameawu.”
The viral hit has sparked a dispute between mother and son, as Artiste Maame insists she deserves a larger share of the earnings, claiming her efforts were pivotal to the song’s success.
Meanwhile, Ogidi Brown argues for a 70 per cent share, asserting that his hard work behind the scenes was crucial in making the track a hit.
Artiste Maame, however, believes her contributions outweigh her son’s, making his 70 per cent demand unjust.
Ogidi Brown contends that if she had collaborated with other major artistes, like Sarkodie or Shatta Wale, it would have cost a substantial amount, underscoring the value of his involvement.
The dispute has escalated, with Artiste Maame warning Ogidi Brown not to perform the song publicly if he insists on keeping his 70 per cent share.
It will be recalled that the mother and son had similar issue when they released their “Wayɛ Twan” hit song.
