Exclusive: Diamond Platnumz finally responds to Darassa CMG’s claims that he shouldn’t call himself Simba and that’s he’s using Witchcraft to finish him
A question that has been ringing in people’s heads for a while now, is Darassa CMG seriously taking shots at Diamond Platnumz- Africa’s main man? And if yes, why? Is it because he has one big hit single? Or is just a ploy to use Diamond’s name in gaining popularity? A lot of artists have done that before.
Well, I reached out to Diamond’s management, Babu Tale just to be specific and Darassa may be way over himself. But before we let you in on the juice, let’s start from the beginning.
It started off when sometime last year Darassa CMG dropped a song alongside Ben Pol called Muziki. It became an instant receiving massive airplay across the board. What however caught most people’s attention are the lyrics in the song which seemed to take a jab at Baba Tiffah. Here they are:
At that time everyone took a step back and assumed the guy was just doing his thing so nobody bothered, they went back to enjoying the song. That was up until Darassa CMG went for an interview in one of the popular TV stations and he was asked that lingering question. This is what he responded:
“Ningekuwa Diamond nisingejiita simba, ninavyomuona Diamond ni zaidi ya Simba, kuna watu wanaua simba, simba, kajichanganya, kaingia kijijini kapotea, Diamond kwa kitu anachofanya ni zaidi ya simba, angeweza kujiita jina lingine lolote kubwa, kafanya vitu vingi sana” He said.
From there on we knew it was on. Then pictures emerged of a witchdoctor performing acts of black magic apparently to stop Darassa’s popularity and facilitate his downfall and people couldn’t help but wonder if Diamond and his Wasafi crew were behind those acts.
Well, exclusively on Ghafla and straight from the horses’ mouth. Diamond’s management is not aware of all this hullabaloo, they are not aware anybody has any beef with them. “Ati beef? Mh ndio nakusikia wewe. Sisi atuna matatizo na mtu yeyote” Babu Tale made it clear.
It looks Diamond and the whole Wasafi fraternity is not keen on giving Darassa his much sought after 15 seconds of fame and they would rather concentrate on the hustle.
So there, case closed!
