Frontline music label, Dove Entertainments is the latest to join the booming membership of the Musical Copyright Society Nigeria Ltd.Gte (MCSN). The label owned by the popular producer; Nelson Brown, formally joined the Society last week with works he has produced since 1994.
The versatile producer was welcomed to the Society by the Chairman of the Board of MCSN, Orits Williki, and its Chief Executive Officer, Mayo Ayilaran.
In his welcome address, Mr. Ayilaran formally introduced the Society to the Producer by saying that the core objective of MCSN was the protection of the copyright of its members and assured him that the Society protects all members in whatever form legitimate including litigation without members spending a kobo in that direction.
The board chairman, Mr. Williki assured him that whatever he may have lost in terms of royalties; MCSN will get it back for him from now on. “In case of infringement, all MCSN requires of you is just file the complaints and leave the rest for the Society,” Mr. Williki advised.
Mr. Brown on his part said he was motivated to join MCSN because he has found so many of his works produced by him on the net, especially YouTube without knowing how they got there. “I don’t know how the workers got to the net; I wonder who gave them the permission for that,” Mr. Brown said.
Mr. Brown has produced hit songs, especially with stars from the Ajegunle area of Lagos State.
Among the many stars he has produced their works over the years include: Daddy Showkey, Daddy Fresh, Baba Fryo, the late Sound Sultan, African China, Tuface, and the Plantation Boys.
Mr. Nelson Brown joined MCSN with a very rich catalog of musical works as a producer and a label owner.
