He is talented, he is my number one musician in East Africa. Ever since the mellow-voiced singer came into the limelight,  he has become one of the most sought after musician in East Africa. Diamond Platnumz has been able to create a huge fan base in the region thanks to his famous hits like "Number One", "Nataka Kulewa" and the recent "Nasema Nawe" which is hitting the airwaves.

Recently, the Bongo star shocked his fans after an email sent to a Kenyan producer by his manager leaked online   In the email, Diamond's manager makes it clear that, if anyone wants the musician to perform in Kenya, he will have to pay 40,000$ (Ksh.3.6 million) to cater for the whole crew (10 people) whereas our local celebrities charge as low as Kshs.30,000 per show.

But why are Kenyans complaining yet Davido was paid over 7 million for the shitty performance? Learn to support our local talent!

Here is the email
