Its a well known fact that the Music Industry generates about $30b. The sector is one of the major revenue earners for any economy.
Sadly, 80-90% of the huge revenue it generates goes to the middlemen(promoters , record labels etc).....while the main artists gets the remaining meagre 20-10% as the case maybe.
When you take a very critical look at the structure of the Music Industry, You will agree that these middlemen wielding so much power and influence. This structure gave way for the middle men to monopolize power in the Industry, thereby making a mess of the hard working artists , who put in all their best in making a song. It can be frustratingly discouraging for the artists, considering that they work like an elephant and get an ant's reward!
This is largely due to the fact that the record labels are the ones funding this music artist and as such have the exclusive right for the disribution of the artist's works.

It is a well known fact that the cost of producing music is outrageously high and so many talented artists who are still struggling to make ends meet can not afford that kind of money......which brings the middlemen into the mix.
And at the end of the day, the artists are left with little or nothing to show for their hard work.
This resulted to the talented artists and small companies who cannot afford the money required to produce songs leaving the stage for the big players .....who in turn funds not so talented artists.
All these are limiting the continuous growth of the music industry.
This needs to be put an end to.

This is where Maestro comes into the mix.

WHAT IS MAESTRO?

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Tony an emerging artist approached the maestro platform for funding of its music album.
An agreement is reached between the parties( maestro and Tony)
Tony receives the required funds for the production of his album.
When the sales proceed starts flowing in....profit is expected to be equitably and fairly shared.
