Diamond Platnumz Teams Up with Trey Songz in Zanzibar

Sleuths reporting live from Tanzania spotted American artist Trey Songz and superstar Diamond Platnumz in the streets of Zanzibar shooting a music video for their upcoming song 'Champion (Big Baller Big Money)'.

Diamond Platnumz, who has been a prominent figure in the African music scene since his breakout hit 'Kamwambie' in 2010, has been actively collaborating with international artists. His recent works include the release of 'Zuwena' in 2023, which has garnered millions of views on YouTube, and a collaboration with South African flautist Wouter Kellerman on the single 'Pounds & Dollars', released in September 2023.

Known for popularizing Bongo Flava, a genre that fuses Tanzanian traditions with Afro-pop and R&B, Diamond has built a remarkable career through strategic partnerships with global acts like Ne-Yo, Rick Ross, and Alicia Keys. His influence was recently recognized when he won his third MTV EMA as the Best African Act in 2023.

Trey Songz, a defining voice in 2000s R&B, has shown a keen interest in the African music scene, previously engaging with artists in the region through initiatives like Coke Studio Africa in Kenya. His collaboration with Diamond marks a significant moment in the ongoing trend of cross-continental partnerships in the music industry.
