Gospel singer Philipa Baafi has declared her willingness to sell the copyright of her songs to political parties interested in using them. While she refuses to compose songs specifically for political parties, she is open to allowing them to use her existing songs for a fee.
Philipa Baafi’s hit song “Go Higher” was widely used by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) during the 2008 general elections. However, she maintains that she did not compose the song specifically for the party. Instead, the party approached her and paid for the copyright to use the song, which she had already written and recorded.
Philipa Baafi’s stance is clear: she will not be swayed by money to compose songs for political parties. Her mission is to sing for Christ, and her music focuses on realities, God, and positivity. While she may not be willing to compose songs for political parties, she is willing to sell the copyright of her songs to those who want to use them.
This approach allows political parties to use her music while also respecting her artistic integrity and mission. Philipa Baafi’s music has resonated with many, and her willingness to sell copyright may open up new opportunities for her songs to reach a wider audience.
