Last week JOOX announced the launch of the ‘#Gig2Earn’ initiative to support local musicians currently experiencing financial hardship through an inability to perform live. ‘#Gig2Earn’ invites them to stream directly to their fans via the JOOX live video streaming feature – and get paid to do so.
“I’m so thrilled to be raising funds for the JOOXplatform. I fully support their mission to nurture our music industry. I’m happy to lend my support to this company who are supporting our musicians who have so very much to offer,” says Zolani.
