Oyogist.com has learnt that Tanzanian artist, Diamond Platnumz has narrated how he almost went broke while featuring Davido in his song “Number One” in 2014.
During an interview with Nairobi news, Platnumz revealed he spent ten times of his normal collabo fees with the DMW boss.
He further disclosed that he had to approach several banks for loans to enable him to finance the video shoot for “Number One” remix.
He said;
“Before doing the first video version of Number One at Ogopa Djs in Nairobi, my video cost used to be about KSh 326, 000 per video. With Number One, I went ten times higher and spent KSh 3.3 million or thereabout to fly Ogopa Djs video crew to Cape Town, South Africa, and shoot my video. The outcome was amazing, and that gave me the green light to approach Davido for a remix.“I took loans from Tanzania banks to finance my video and collaboration with Davido in Lagos because I had to travel there with my crew”.
