From Highlife to global stages

Ghana's sound runs deep — Highlife and Hiplife laid the foundation, and today Accra and Kumasi artists drive a Ghanaian take on Afrobeats and Gospel that travels far beyond West Africa. Boomplay and TikTok carry that music to listeners across the region, and ORB delivers you to both as primary stores.

Too many Ghanaian artists hit a payment wall with distributors that demand dollar cards and pay into foreign accounts. ORB records the exact withdrawal amount in its immutable wallet ledger; staff process requests to a local bank in its supported local currency or to wire, PayPal, or Payoneer in USD.

What you need to release from Ghana

Have these ready for ORB approval within 24 hours; each store then controls processing and final availability:

• Your mastered audio — WAV is preferred for the best store quality
• Square cover art at 3000×3000 pixels with no logos or web addresses
• Accurate song titles, songwriter names and your chosen release date
• A Ghanaian bank account to withdraw your royalties in Cedi
