Diamond Platnumz Finally Responds to Online Speculation Tying Him to Diddy

Tanzanian star Diamond Platnumz has addressed the online allegations following a video of him commenting on his time spent with embattled American mogul P Diddy.

The Bongo artist acknowledged the online chatter linking him to Sean Diddy Combs, but he expressed that he has great respect for the American singer and has chosen to ignore the circulating rumors.

“Mimi ni mtu ambaye huongelewa kwa maneno na kwa vitu tofauti… Maisha yangu mtandaoni, kwenye sanaa na kiuhalisia ni vitu tofauti sana. …huwa sijibu comment za watu (People talk a lot about me on a wide range of things. My life online and as an artiste is very different from my real life as a person. For that reason, I do not respond to online comments),” Diamond stated during an interview with Wasafi TV.

The father of four emphasized that, out of respect for the 54-year-old singer, he will refrain from commenting on Diddy’s legal issues until a verdict is reached.

“Sitajifanya mchambuzi katika tukio lake kwa maana sijafanya sheria. Kwa ufupi, mpaka mahakama yaseme neno. Binafsi siwezi nikamhukumu lakini ninamheshimu kama mtu amvmbaye anajua vitu vingi mziki (I won’t pretend to be a commentator on his situation because I haven’t studied law. In short, until the court speaks on the matter, I personally cannot judge him, but I respect him as someone who knows a lot about music),” Diamond added.

He further noted that, as a well-established and resilient artist, he is unfazed by online criticism.

“Mimi ni miongoni mwa sananii komavu na shupavu. Wewe andika na sema chochote unachotaka lakini sikujibu, sikohoi na sitetereki (I’m among the mature and resilient artists. You can write and say whatever you want, but I won’t respond, I’m not bothered, and I won’t be shaken),” the singer concluded.
