Entertainment Roundup

 

Diamond Platinumz features Psquare in new song (WATCH)

What a time to drop a song with Psquare considering the drama that surrounded the dynamic duo this past weekend.

We guess the Tanzanian singer is trying to remind the brothers of the beautiful music they create when they come together as Psquare.

The song titled Kidogo had been written by Diamond and the Shekini acts back in 2015 but the video was not shot until April 2016 in Johannesburg South Africa by Godfather Production Inc

The song had productions contributions from Tanzanian beat-makers – Shirko and Laizer and was mixed by Nigeria’s V-Teck.

Tonto Dikeh returns to the music studio 

Following a brief hiatus after having a baby, Tonto Dikeh appears to be back to making music.

We are still unsure what record label she’ll be launching her music projects under after making the announcement that she has left DKM – D’banj‘s label imprint in her first post-baby interview earlier this year – a claim the Kokomaster said was untrue as he had not had any of such conversations with the light-skinned singer.
