On August 3, the Kenya Copyright Board (Kecobo) revoked the licences for three royalty collecting organisations — Kenya Association of Music Producers (KAMP), Performers Rights Society of Kenya (PRiSK) and the Music Copyright Society of Kenya (MCSK).
The decision to ‘press a nuclear button’ by Kecobo followed a show cause letter written to the collective management organisations (CMOs) on July 1, 2021.
