Diamond Platnumz and Eddy Kenzo: A Rift in East African Music?

Diamond Platnumz and Eddy Kenzo: A Rift in East African Music? The recent video circulating online shows a clear division between Tanzanian superstar Diamond Platnumz and Ugandan artist Eddy Kenzo. While Diamond initially claims a close friendship and collaboration with Kenzo, Kenzo later expresses his disappointment with Diamond's treatment of Ugandan musicians. This raises concerns about the dynamics of cross-border collaborations in the East African music scene. "Diamond is my friend," Platnumz stated in one segment of the video. However, Kenzo's subsequent comments paint a different picture. Kenzo's frustration highlights a larger issue: the potential for exploitation and unequal partnerships in international musical ventures. The incident serves as a reminder of the complexities involved in navigating cultural differences and ensuring fair treatment within the global music industry. The video concludes with a call for greater transparency and equitable collaborations in the future.
