Are you just a DJ or you own the song? $10 million you sav? If we sell you and add all your siblings, add your abusuapanin you won't come up with $70,000 let alone $100,000. Did you see Bawumia playing your music or he was merely on a campaign trail? Find his organizers.

DJ Azonto would not get even 1 cent from Bawumia. As long as he bought a copy of the song, he can play it anywhere he chooses. No court in Ghana would grant DJ Azonto's demand. He should rather pay Bawumia for promoting his song. It's a form of advertisement for his music to be played at such an event. Azonto is so broke so he sees this as an opportunity to extort money.
