The Musical Copyright Society Nigeria plans to stop paying everyone the same flat rate when distributing royalties to its members. Mayo Ayilaran runs the organization, and he sent out a message explaining that the old system relied on guesswork instead of actual data about which songs got played where.

Starting next year, MCSN wants to use technology to track what music actually gets used by radio stations and other platforms. The shift means creators will get paid based on logs showing their specific tracks getting airplay, rather than everyone splitting money equally. Ayilaran mentioned that many businesses still ignore their invoices for music licensing, which cuts into how much money the society collects.

Members need to register their catalog on the website so the new tracking system can identify their work properly. The organization says this data-driven approach will be more transparent and fair compared to the judgment calls management used to make about who deserved what percentage.
