Diamond and Rayvanny now resort to begging the government and BASATA to forgive them as Kenya’s show nears

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Things have a taken a new turn regarding Diamond and Rayvanny’s recent ban after the two performed “Mwanza” which has been banned by BASATA.

The singer, who has expressed frustration since the ban and even thought of relocating to Kenya, has now taken a different path and he’s asking for forgiveness from both BASATA and the government.

In an Instagram post, the singer, accompanied with Rayvanny, said they’re really regretting performing the song and it has been a lesson for them.

“Japo tunajitahidi kuwa vijana wa mfano bora kwenye Taifa letu, lakini kama tulivyoumbwa binadam hatuwezi kupatia siku zote, lazma itatokea siku tutateleza tu….Ila Utelezapo, ni vyema kulijua Kosa na Kulirekebisha ili kesho na Kesho kutwa lisijirudie….Inshaallah Mwenyez Mungu Atusimamie na kutuongezea Juhudi na Maarifa katika Kazi zetu ili kwa Pamoja tuzidi kuukuza Muziki wetu na Kuendelea Kuiwakilisha vyema na kulipa sifa Nzuri na Heshima Nchi yetu….Tuseme Amin…..??.” 

The plea comes just 3 days before his anticipated performance in Embu and the singer might be running out of time. Diamond is scheduled to have three shows in Kenya; in Embu on December 24, Wasafi Festival in Mombasa 26th and on New Year’s Eve in Nairobi.

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Diamond Platnumz will still grace different arenas as planned despite his recent ban by Tanzania’s music regulatory body Basata after ignoring the body and performing “Mwanza” in Tanzanian.

Diamond and Rayvanny defied Basata’s ban and went on to perform ‘Mwanza’ during Wasafi festival at the lakeside city of Mwanza on Saturday December 15th which earned them another ban that prohibits them from performing anywhere.

In talks

According to his manager Babu Tale, Diamond’s scheduled shows in Kenya will still take place as planned and fans should not be worried. Tale said they are already in talks to ensure the ban was lifted.

Diamond is set to perform in Embu, Mombasa and Nairobi.

“That is our task. We will reach out to them and see how we can meet halfway. Meanwhile, we will handle the consequences when we get there,” said Babu Tale in an interview with Edaily.

Diamond had to pay a Ksh 400,000 fine after releasing the song as BASATA termed it explicit. Mwanza was also banned from being played on any TV and Radio stations in Tanzania or being performed in concerts.

‘They were white gold and diamonds. I had bought them in America for Ksh 1.8 million’ Diamond speaks after losing chains

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Tanzanian singer Diamond Platnumz is not worried after losing his expensive chains during the weekend while promoting Wasafi Festival which has  officially kicked off.

Diamond was performing at a place called Mtwara in Tanzania and was mobbed with thousands of people and in the process, someone managed to walk away with his chains.

The chains, which were made from pure white gold and diamonds, costs the singer a clean 1.8 million Kenyan shillings.

Underestimated the thief

The singer told a Tanzanian based radio station that he hadn’t thought that his jewellery would loosen so he wasn’t afraid that someone might jack them.

“Zile ni white gold na diamond nilinunua marekani sikumbuki lakini hazishuki millioni arubanne.nilijua haziwezi kung’oka, alivyotokea mtu ghafla akazipull nikapatwa na shock.” he said. 

Diamond, however, wasn’t really sad or angry that they were stolen. In fact, he said he’ll assume he gifted the thief.

“Lakini mwenyezi mungu ndio anapanga kila kitu na wakati mwingine labda mungu alitaka nitoe viwe sadaka na kwa support walonipa ina dhamani kubwa kuliko zile vitu na vinazo zingine kibao. Mi naona ni freshi tu kama baraka yake, zawadi yake.” he said. 

Diamond reveals how much he charges per show and it’s enough to buy you a bungalow in Syokimau

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

WCB President Diamond Platnumz is one paid kid. While some artists are struggling to make money in the industry, the singer is really making a killing from his music.

Diamond recently had to remind the Tanzanian government how much he makes per show after they banned Rayvanny’s new hit “Mwanza” because of its explicit lyrics.

On Instagram, Diamond said that his music targets a bigger fan base than just Tanzanians therefore he puts a lot in consideration when making the songs.

Charges

He went on to explain that he’s called for performances in other countries and they pay him at least $70,000 for a performance which is same as Tsh168, 300,000 or Ksh 7 million. How much does a 3 bedroom bungalow in Syokimau cost again?

He added that banning of his songs would not only affect his career but also the government in terms of taxes.

“Wazee wetu, vijana wenu ama wasanii wenu sasahivi tumefanikiwa kuingia kwenye masoko mbalimbali hivyo sio kila nyimbo ni kwajili ya soko la nyumbani Tanzania tu, mfano: UGANDA kuna Tamasha Linaitwa NYEGE FESTIVAL….na kwa nafasi niliyonayo UGANDA na kwajinsi nyimbo hii ilivyovuma kwa kishindo kila kona ndani ya siku tatu tu Viewers 1.5+ Millions Youtube, basi naamini kabisa Mwakani lazima NYEGE FETIVAL waniite kutumbuiza…na kama mnavyofahamu bei zangu huwaga si chini dola elf Sabini za kimarekani ( $70,000) kwa show
sawa na milioni (160,300,000 za kitanzania).…mbazo kwa show moja tu ningeweza kuchangia pato la kodi si chini ya milioni (48,090,000 ya kitanzania)…hivyo naomba mlitazame na hapo Balaza letu Pendwa” wrote Diamond.

Ladies don’t let Sharon’s death scare you to the point of dating these broke ass niggas -Struggling socialite Nicole

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Struggling Nairobi socialite, Nicole Batate, is back with her usual madness.

While everyone is warning girls to stay away from sponsors after Sharon Otieno’s case, the socialite has come out to ask ladies to focus on going for moneyed guys.

Sharon Otieno, a Rongo university student was killed and her body dumped in a forest after a love triangle went sour. Batate has asked women to go for married men with a plan, not just anyhow.

“Ladies don’t let Sharon’s death scare you to the point of dating these broke ass niggas! All you need is play smart and follow the rules! 1: no unwanted pregnancies- a married man can only want a child outside if one,” said the socialite. 

Rules

She went on to break down her silly rules of how women can survive dating other women’s husbands without being engulfed in drama.

“His wife doesn’t have any or has only one sex and he needs another (I mean a boy or a gal). 2: never ever threaten them! Remember they are powerful than you and most rich and powerful will do all it takes to protect their names. 3: be nice always – that’s what most of them lack back there at home so be as nice as possible even if you’re faking it..Make him feel better all the time.”

Diamond’s manager shares why he didn’t perform with RickRoss while in Nairobi 

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Diamond Platnumz’s manager Sallam SK has opened up on why the singer never shared stage with Amerircan rapper Rick Ross during his Nairobi visit.

According to SK , NRG are to blame since they didn’t want to up the budget and include Diamond in the performance list.

Different approach

Diamond and Rick Ross have a collabo called Waka. Both are Belaire ambassadors and from this, fans expected to see them on stage together.  SK said NRG had a different  approach.

“Always tunasimama katika Biashara kwa hiyo jamaa alikuwa na budget hio at the time tulinegotiate price. Alipofikia akawa hana budget. Kwa hivyo it doesn’t mean kuwa kama hana budget na sisi tukafanye kwasababu ilikuwa so sure WCB. Ndio maana nakwambia nlisimama kama SK entertainment na si WCB. Ingekuwa ni WCB ina maana lazima Diamond angeenda kuperform but ilikuwa Biashara ingine kwa hivyo ilikuwa inatakiwa Diamond alipwe na Diamond kama hajalipwa hawezi kuperform. That’s it”, he told Times FM in an interview.

Why Diamond Platnumz was temporarily blocked from leaving the country

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Singer Diamond Platnumz had to spend more hours at the airport than he had anticipated after he was temporarily blocked by the government of Tanzania from leaving the country.

According to Tanzania’s Baraza la Sanaa Taifa (BASATA) the singer was barred from leaving the country to Mayotte Island where he was scheduled to perform because they are enforcing a law that requires all artists who want to travel to perform outside their country to get special permits from BASATA.

New law

BASATA Chief Executive Godfrey Mngereza,in a statement, said:

Utaratibu wa msanii kuwa na kibali anapoenda nje, yaani kutambua wapi anaelekea kikazi si mpya. Upo katika kanuni toka awali. Lengo ni kumhakikisha ulinzi wa haki na usalama wake pale kutakapotokea suala lisilo rafiki. Pia, kumuaga kwa kukabidhi bendera na mapokezi pindi anaporudi ikibidi,” said Godfrey.

Bongo Flava star Diamond Platnumz has once again been accused of being a deadbeat dad just days after Father’s Day.

A Kenyan woman going by the name Gladys Butoto has come out to claim that the popular singer fathered her one-and-a-half year old daughter and has been neglecting her.

Speaking outside the Oysterbay police post in Dar es Salaam, Butoto claimed that she has been reaching out to Diamond for help, but the singer has dodged her constantly, making fake promises.

“Mimi nisingefikia hatua hii kabisa, lakini nimeona Diamond ni mtu ambaye ananidharau na wakati ukweli anaujua, maana tungezungumza na tukakubaliana kuhusu matunzo ya huyu mtoto wala nisingekuwa na matatizo yoyote yale,” Gladys told Tanzanian newspaper, Uwazi.

“Mwanangu anaumwa lakini nimekuja naye hivyohivyo ili nijue hatma yangu na pia twende mbele ya sheria maana hata mama yake alishawahi kusema mimi ni chizi lakini siwezi kumsingizia mwanaye hata kidogo kuhusu hilo,” added Gladys as she showed her court papers against Diamond.

Deadbeat

Zari has also complained that the singer is not there for his kids anymore. The Bongo heavy hitter was taken to court by video vixen Hamisa Mobetto over the same few years ago.

Secretly, many women dream of bedding singer Diamond Platnumz. Diamond knows it, Zari Hassan knew it and even Hamisa Mobeto is always away of it.

“Nitamng’oa tu Diamond kwa Mobeto kwa sababu nampenda sana, ananikosesha usingizi, huyo Mobeto asidhani amefika. Wakati f’lani niliona ni ngumu kumpata Diamond kwa kuwa mama yake alikuwa akimpenda sana Mobeto lakini sasa hivi naona njia nyeupe baada ya Mobeto kuchezea kichapo,” Said Pretty Kind.

He’s single

The singer went on to add that Diamond is now single and any one can approach him.

“Hata simuogopi huyo Mobeto, angekuwa ameolewa sawa lakini hajaolewa na wala Diamond hajawahi kutangaza mpenzi au mchumba wake kwa sasa. Mimi nasema, wasionijua watanijua,” she said.
