Video: Diamond Platnumz’ Reception Crowd in Kigoma is even Bigger Than Kanye West’s Sunday Service

Superstar Diamond Platnumz is currently in Kigoma, Tanzania where he grew up. He is set to perform tonight at the much anticipated New Year’s concert which is also his homecoming show.

Diamond is celebrating 10 years in the music industry; 10 years that saw him grow from a local bongo artist to an internationally revered star.
He travelled to Kigoma with his girlfriend Tanasha Donna and their son via the Kigoma train. The train ride to his hometown was a whole party. There was music from singers and instrumentalists playing the drums. The travelers all danced and made merry as they awaited their arrival.

Upon landing at the train station in Kigoma, Diamond was received with Kigoma elders and a crowd larger than one could imagine. The reception was larger than any political rally or several paid concerts. It was even bigger that the crowds that show up for Kanye West’s Sunday Service performances!

“Another shot of my reception yesterday when arriving at the train station in Kigoma for my Homecoming show… I’m so humbled and grateful Kigoma. I can’t wait for the show at Lake Tanganyika stadium tomorrow,” Diamond wrote on Instagram upon his arrival.

Tanzania now has two major parties tonight. The Kigoma Festival featuring Diamond and Vanessa Mdee’s concert which will also feature musician and actor Rotimi. It’s a good day to be in Tanzania. Happy New Year!
