One Twitter user remarked, “I’ve been explaining this to others as well. You all informed us that Phori’s place is equipped with studios in almost every room, which is impressive, but it also implies he owns the intellectual property. No disrespect to Phori; he’s a legend, but everyone needs to be aware of this.”
Another tweet suggested that DJ Maphorisa might benefit from individuals who comprehend the intricacies of the music industry. The user stated, “Phori needs people who understand how the music industry operates. Maybe if they could break it down for us, we would understand. Who owns what, and when does the concept of ‘featuring’ come into play?”
DJ Maphorisa’s claim has certainly stirred discussions, prompting a closer examination of ownership dynamics in the music industry.
