Liberian rapper Bucky Raw has stirred conversation online after revealing the amount he charges to appear on a cypher, a move that has divided opinion among fans and industry followers.
In a recent Facebook post, the rapper boldly challenged fellow artists while disclosing his rate.
“Let’s be honest y’all so called rappers think y’all can hold ground with me 😂😂🥱🥱 Pay the 10k USD let’s see,” he wrote.
According to Bucky Raw, any artist or organizer looking to feature him on a cypher must be prepared to pay at least US$10,000.
The statement has quickly gained traction on social media, with supporters praising his confidence and arguing that established artists deserve to set their own value in the industry.
However, others have questioned whether such a price reflects the current realities of Liberia’s entertainment industry, where production budgets and artist fees are often significantly lower.
The discussion adds to ongoing conversations about pricing, professionalism, and the value of artistry in Liberia’s growing music scene.
As reactions continue to pour in, Bucky Raw’s comment has once again placed him at the center of public debate, blending confidence, controversy, and industry standards into one viral moment.
