BOMU, BEPA condemn MYSC gig criterion

The event, which was organised by Yarona FM and sponsored by the Ministry of Youth Empowerment, Sport and Culture Development (MYSC), was only limited to artists who were nominated and the winners of the local radio station’s annual music awards otherwise known as the YAMAs.

Each performing artist pocketed P25, 000 from the event much to the disappointment of many who had missed out. Popular artists such as Vee Mampeezy, Charma gal, ATI, Han C, Scar were amongst the few beneficiaries. Many saw this a divisive move to silence the industry following their mass demonstrations seeking the reopening of gigs in the industry.
