Do2dtun, a prominent on-air personality, has voiced his dissatisfaction with Nigerian artists demanding payment in dollars for their performances. The OAP expressed his concerns on social media, shedding light on the emerging trend where local talents are increasingly requesting to be compensated in US dollars.
Despite the indigenous nature of the musicians and the genre, Do2dtun highlighted the unusual practice of receiving payments in foreign currency, even for performances within Nigeria. He referred to this recent development as "a bizarre and unusual development."
On his social media handle, Do2dtun wrote:
“This Afrobeat we all built together, na Una go use Una hands spoil am. You now charge your own people in dollars. Forget to unlock the togetherness the genre gives you and your people. Quite strange and bizarre.”
