When asked about his relationship with the ‘Siri Regular’ songstress Spice Diana, Platnumz denied the allegation saying what he has with Diana is strictly music and nothing more.
“Its just a song we are doing and nothing more. That is it. I am not going to chew her. She is like a sister to me. I even hosted her at my home and office sometime back. But she is not a bad person to have a kid with because she is cute,” he said.
On collaborations and connections with African artists, Diamond revealed that he always loves collaborating with African artists which he believes will even foster the music industry in Africa the more. In Uganda, the ‘Yayapita’ hitmaker said he already has songs together with Eddy Kenzo and Spice Diana but wishes he does one with Jose Chameleone.
“I really respect my brother Jose Chameleone, its just that we haven’t yet done a song together but I would love to have a collabo with him. It will surely be my dreams come true because he’s my role model and the type of music he does is my favorite.”
Through the concert, Comedy Store Foundation is looking to expand its programs which are aimed at facilitating youth skilling and mentorship as well as positively impacting the society through charitable activities.
Currently, the Foundation runs three key activities; the Home of Hope Charity football match; The Comedy Auditions Program; and the Youth Training & Mentorship Program.
