Tanzanian artist and WCB boss Diamond Platnumnz has shared the reason why he still remains on top of his game.
Speaking to the press, the WCB boss opened up, saying that he has a number of other businesses he is doing on the side and doesn’t entirely depend on music alone to thrive.
He also shared the reason why he has never thought of dropping the mic despite having made it as an artist, and with many business investments that are bringing in more money than his music career, saying he is only doing it out of passion, and were it not so, then he would not have even started singing in the first place.
“Tafsiri ya kukua ni kuongeza majukumu na fedha si kuacha jambo moja na kufanya lingine ndio maana ningekua nimewacha kufanya muziki maanake biashara nazo zifanya zinaniletea fedha mingi kuliko muziki nao kua nao.
Sasa hautakiwi kuacha maanake ni kwamba umeanza mziki unatengeneza riziki nyingine na nyingine.” Diamond explained.
