I Started Charging My Clients In Dollars In 2005 – Cobhams Asuquo

Speaking during an interview with Pulse TV, he explained that he decided to transact in a more reliable currency because he recognised the value of his craft and a desire for financial stability. He said, “I am one of the few producers who started charging in a different currency for the purpose of stability. “As far back as 2005, I began to peg my charges in dollars because I felt it was a stable thing to do. I was obviously getting signed and getting things going, and I needed to be able to transact in that space.” Cobhams noted that his decision was pioneering, as he was unaware of any other producers charging in dollars at the time. He attributed this bold move to his early realisation of his worth. “I hear music producers charge now in dollars, and I say to myself, I started doing this in 2005 when I was just 24. I didn’t know anybody else who was doing that at the time.
