HipHop recording artiste and XYZ Entertainments CEO “Robert Chunga Jnr” popularly known as “Bobby East” took it to Twitter to urge fans to pray for their favorites artists as Coronavirus continues to halt Cash flow. Bobby East revealed that most artists haven’t worked in weeks due to the cancellation of shows due to the pandemic.
Pray for your favorite artist, we have not worked in weeks and that doesn't look like it will change any time soon… Royalties in Zambia are a joke,we have to tour to eat…..

He also emphasized that Royalties in Zambia are a Joke and hence most musicians make money off gigs and performances. Unfortunately the situation doesn’t seem to be changing anytime as the Virus continues to disrupt economic activities globally.
Since the first Case of Covid-19 was reported in China late December, the Virus has spread across the global with more than 1 Million cases and a death toll of more than 50K.
