Part of Diamond Platnumz's narrative is about his tenacity to pursue what he desires.
Despite his family wanting him to go for the usual 9-5 job, Diamond forged his path and pursued a music career.
He participated in talent competitions after he finished high school and even performed for different local and international artists. His mother was the target of immense criticism for allowing him to go into music.
Diamond faced stumbling blocks. He lost friends, his then-girlfriend left him as he wasn’t able to cater for her needs. Wonder what she’s thinking now.

He took up casual jobs like selling second-hand garments, working as a filling attendant and even doing freelance photography to make money that would help him get his music career off the ground.
Diamond wanted so badly to become a musician that at one time he was an illegal gambler and also stole his mother’s golden ring to record his first single.

They say that luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. Not to get all too philosophical here but Diamond will probably agree.
In 2009, Diamond Platnumz met Msafiri Peter aka Papaa Misifa who gave him financial support that saw him record “Kamwambie”, an ode to his girlfriend who left him when he had nothing.
The track was an instant success and gave Diamond Platnumz the much-needed morale to continue with his music career.

There is a reason why they call Diamond Platnumz “Simba” Swahili word for Lion. He's been involved in several high-profile relationships with women from different nationalities, each with its own fair share of drama.
The first and longest-standing relationship in Diamond Platnumz’s life has to be with one, Wema Sepetu, a Tanzanian actress and former beauty contestant who won the Miss World beauty pageant in 2006.
The pair ended their five-year relationship in 2014 after numerous cheating allegations on Diamond's part.
Shortly after they called it quits, Diamond Platnumz and Zari Hassan, a Ugandan socialite, musician and businesswoman, kicked off their relationship.
Both denied rumours that they were romantically involved, and cited that they were only business counterparts.

Later that year, the pair were seen holding hands when they showed up at the South African Channel O Awards together.
Zari Hassan was already a mother of three from her previous relationship when she sired her firstborn with Diamond Platnumz, a girl, Latiiffah Dangote then later a boy, Prince Nillan Dangote.
Infidelity issues continued to plague the singer. His relationship with Zari fell apart after Diamond allegedly had an affair with one of his video vixens, Hamisa Mobetto.
He had his third child with Mobetto, Dylan Abdul Naseeb. Zari later moved to South Africa from their Tanzanian home where she manages the businesses of her late husband.
