Diamond Platnumz and Alikiba spent years hating each other, their fans never believed that someday the two rivals could possibly work together on a music collaboration.
For a long time many people speculated the genesis of Alikiba and Diamond’s beef, but it was all about music supremacy.
Diamond spoke on his beef with Alikiba in his new song ‘Nawaza’ which is part of his newly released EP ‘First Of All’.
The Bongo superstar said he deeply thought about what caused his rivalry with Alikiba and he realized that it was being competition for fans.
Diamond expressed regret for wasting time and energy beefing with Alikiba, saying that they were just being primitive and ultimately ended their music rivalry.
“Nilowaza leo nishawaza sana, mi na Kiba ugomvi kipi nikagundua ni ushamba na ujana wakugombania mashabiki. (What I thought today have thought about deeply, what is the beef between Kiba and me. I realize it was just being primitive and the youth in us competing for fans),” said Diamond.
He added that;
“Na nimejifunza binadamu kweli hawanajema yani mtoto unaemtunza ndio anakuombea ukilema, nashangaa (And I have learnt human being they don’t wish you well, a kid you taking care of is the one praying for your downfall, I just wonder).”
Diamond reflects on his life life in his song ‘Nawaza’ which means ‘I’m thinking’ when translated to English.
The Bongo singer candidly opened up about his biggest worries and concerns in his song ‘Nawaza’. See the lyrics below:
“Nawaza”
Nawaa…naaawaaa…naawaaa…nawaza tu
Nawaa…naaawaaa…naawaaa…nawaza tu
Nawaza pru mpaka maka Ruge amerudi tena
Je kwa huu mziki wa sasa sijui nini angesema!?
Na nimejifunza binadamu kweli hawana jema
Yani mtoto unaemtunza ndo anakuombea ukilema
Nashangaa
Nawaza Vanny na Elizabeth clip zao zikivuja
Ndoa itaimarika eti au ndo ataifoja?!
Nawaza muchana,usiku jibu halifiki
Wanaonitukana, tuna bifu au ilimradi kiki?!
Nawaza kina Kimambi bwana wangekua wagawa ridhiki
Hivi kweli ningejulikana si wangenizima nsisike
Nlowaza leo nshawaza sana kina Kiba ugomvi kipi?!
Nikagundua ni ushamba na ujana wa kugombania mashabiki
Nawaa…naaawaaa…naawaaa…nawaza tu
Nawaa…naaawaaa…naawaaa…nawaza tu
Oooh nawaza
Huenda Steven Kanumba angelikuwepo hai
Nawaza movie zetu pia tungejidai
Nawaazaa hivi kombe la dunia hatufikagi why?!
Nawaza,tatizo ni team au uongozi haufai
Mawazo mengine mtanange bora tuache yataleta ukakasi
Je angekuepo Muzee Nyange,Uncle Shamte angepata nafasi?!
Nawaza ka ngekua na Wema Sepetu hadi leo sijui ngekua nshafulia au zaidi maendeleo
Ooh nawaza siku nikifa sijui wasafi itakufa
Nawaza sijui maradhi ama ajali itanikuta
Nawaza oh Mama Dangote nani chozi atamfuta
Nawaza sijui nyimbo zangu watazikumbuka
Eeeh
Nlowaza leo nshawaza sana nnachoshindwa kuwa kipi
Nikagundua naepusha lawama maana najijua kwa kucheat
Nawaa…naaawaaa…naawaaa…nawaza tu
Nawaa…naaawaaa…naawaaa…nawaza tu
