Rumour has been going around that Chameleone is the richest artist in East Africa. In fact blogs have been claiming that for over 5years now without any proof.
However, the recent interview by one of the biggest television channels in South Africa placed recording artist Diamond as the richest musician in Tanzania and East Africa worth $ 4 million.
The colossal amount has not come as a surprise to many, considering Diamond Platnumz is the most paid, decorated and sought-after artiste in Tanzania and East Africa.
According to the show hosts, Diamond Platnumz money comes from shows, brand ambassadorial deals and endorsements from well-to-do companies like DSTV, Coca Cola, Uber and Vodacom. Royalties, Ringtones and call back tones have also made the Number one singer a lot of money
Meanwhile, unconfirmed reports indicate Diamond Platnumz charges Ugx 12, 425,000 per show in his native Tanzania. When outside Tanzania, the star wouldn’t take anything less than Ugx 77.24 million for a performance.
More so, Diamond Platnumz also harvests revenue from his YouTube channel, considering the videos to his songs easily clock millions of views, hence a huge amount of money earned from YouTube ads.
Diamond Platnumz also owns quite a number of real estate properties such as apartments, land, business premises in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
