Speaking exclusively with YEN.com.gh about Lisa Quama's earnings and current status in the dance industry, entertainment analyst Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh said,

Revealing some of her earnings isn't a big issue as it can go a long way to inspire others to also take that career path. Lisa like some of her DWP colleagues have been consistent with their content. It's rather a bit unfortunate that every creative's biggest pay comes from an international brand. Hopefully, we get to a level wher local brands can value creators in an equal measure.
