DJ Maphorisa claims he owns the masters of all songs recorded with his equipment. During a live chat on Instagram, the music producer made the explanation, saying the song is owned by him if recorded in his studio, with his light and tools.Social media users reacted to the DJ’s claim, which made him trending.
