Veteran Tanzanian singer Naseeb Abdul Juma Issack widely known as Diamond Platnumz has disclosed that his former signee Mbwana Yusuf Kilungi alias Mbosso did not pay a dime before exiting his WCB-Wasafi recording label unlike the former members Harmonize and Rayvanny.
While officially confirming Mbosso‘s exit, Diamond in an interview with Millard Ayo disclosed that Mbosso approached him to discuss his exit plans from the recording label including the exit fee.
He went on to explain that they agreed amicably but also turned down his exit fee proposal because Mbosso during his time at WCB was hardworking and delivered wholeheartedly.
“Mbosso wiki mbili na nusu nyuma tumeongea na Mbosso na aliniomba aweze kujisimamia na nikampa Baraka zangu zote na Mbosso ni mdogo wangu nikawambia Mbosso tumeishi vizuri na hatujawai gombana na wala hatujawai kwazana na kwa jinsi ulivyo niheshimu kwa kunipenda na tukapendana siwezi kukutoza hata shilingi na sijamtoza hata shilingi kumi,”Diamond explained.
The self-proclaimed Simba further narrated that the other reason why he waived Mbosso’s exit fee was that the Baikoko hitmaker is respectful and wise, and he is like his younger brother adding that it could be unfair and shameful to charge him.
“Kwanza ninamshukuru kwa kutumia hekima unajua ni wasani wachachw wanaweza kutumia hekima hiyo kwa sababu kwanza alivyokuja Mbosso alikuwa amekuja kulipa lakini nikwamwambia bro tumeishi vizuri nawe na kwa heshima uliyonipa siwezi nikakutoza chochote. Namna nilivyoishi na Mbosso, kumtoza hela ni aibu kwangu.Angekuwepo mtu mwingine ambaye hatujaheshimiana hela unatoa,”he explained.
The Bongo flava star noted that Mbosso is currently managing himself.
“Zaidi ya hilo, ninafikiri mpaka sasa hivi tushakamilisha process na vitu vyake vyote tayari na ashaanza kujisimamia rasmi ata show kuja huku amekuja rasmi kama amesha anza kujisimamamia,” he added.
Diamond on supporting Mbosso
The reality TV star further stated that he would support Mbosso and protect him when the need arose adding that even after his exit he is still part of the WCB family.
“Lazima tumuunge mkono lazima tumsupport na ataendelea kuwa familia ya Wasafi na nitaendelea kumpigania na kuhakikisha ninamlinda kila sehemu ambayo ninaweza.
“Nilimwambia Mbosso wewe ni Wasafi lakini sasa unajitegemea nani mdogo wangu na ataendelea kuwa mdogo wangu nanita msupport fully na atakayemguza ameniguza mimi na tutapambana naye,”he stated.
Signing Mbosso
The Komasava hitmaker pointed out that he signed Mbosso because he loved his personality and music.
“Mimi sababu zangu za kumsign Mbosso nilikuwa na mpenda na watu wengi ata kwenye label wanajua,”Diamond reaveled.
Mbosso joined Diamond’s recording label in 2018 shortly after parting ways with Ya Moto Band.
According to the WCB agreement, the signee has to part with a certain amount of money before exiting the label.
