Tanzanian singer Diamond Platnumz will not take anything below Ksh7 million just in case you are thinking of booking him for a show outside his country.

The flamboyant singer revealed his rate card on social media recently while protesting music regulatory body BASATA’s ban on Rayvanny’s song “Mwanza”.

According his post, Diamond charges almost Sh2 million for local shows and at least Ksh7 million across the borders.

“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,” said Diamond.  

BASATA on Tuesday banned Mwanza stating it had vulgar lyrics and promoted homosexuality. The song was among 15 others banned from radio and TV in the country following body's latest review. 

Diamond explained that has a wider reach now and banning his song not only affected him but also the country at large.

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,” he said.
