FIDEMPA & PROFF- “HOW WE DO IT”

NEW MUSIC VIDEO

After Fidempa’s nomination in the recently held Kilimanjaro Music Awards; this past week he linked up with Kenya’s dancehall star Proff on a Kenya-Uganda combination to release a dancehall tune dubbed “How we do it.”

It is a change for Proff in terms of investing heavily on videos. The video is well shot with proper lighting and well balanced dressing. The genius behind it-J Blessing!

Shot indoors, the video is of high quality too and the transitions are catchy too. What’s you take?

DIAMOND PULLS A KANYE AND PERFORMS IN A SKIRT AT THE KTMA 2014

#KTMA 2014

Tanzania’s controversial star Diamond is a man not short of controversy. He has been on and off relationships with some of Tanzania’s hottest ladies; he has been accused of applying makeup on several occasion and he was at one point rumored to have had one of his luxury car taken away from him after he failed to pay up.

But at the recently held Kilimanjaro Tanzania music Awards 2014. Rocking a skirt over his skinny jeans; he pulled a great performance for the night and soon got the social media talking. The same stunt has been pulled by many western singers including Kanye.
He went ahead to scoop all the 7 awards he was nominated on including best song for Number one remix with Davido and best male artist among other awards. Fellow entertainer Wema Sepetu took the grand opportunity to declare that she will be getting married to Diamond soon.




Although winning many accolades; “critics say despite winning numerous awards at Kilimanjaro Awards , Diamond had also fallen out of favor with music industry stake holders as he did not acknowledge people who played a role in shaping his career. "He just thanked the fans for voting each time and that was all, he should have atleast given props to his producer and management team" says a source who attended the awards.
This means coming times might not be easy for Diamond whose music may be struck out of the schedules by radio presenters in East Africa who reckon Diamond did not adhere to an artists code of acknwoledging people who had brought him that far. It is often 'gospel" for artists including in the international  to give shout outs to producers and management teams.” This is according to Vibeweekly.com
Here is a photo courtesy of fellow artiste and buddy Ommy Dimpoz’ instagram page,
