Mwanzilishi wa kampuni ya Push Mobile inayohusika na uuzaji wa miito ya simu, ringback tone (RBT) amesema Diamond ndiye msanii wa Bongo Flava anayeingiza fedha nyingi zaidi.

Shamte ametoa taarifa hiyo jana alipokuwa akizungumza kwenye kongamano la mchango wa technolojia ya habari na mawasiliano ICT kwenye tasnia ya muziki nchini katika kituo cha ubunifu wa technolojia hiyo cha KINU jijini Dar es Salaam.

“That boy is hot, you have no idea how much money he makes from RBT, I handle that account true story,” alisema Rashid. Alipoombwa ataje ni kiasi gani Diamond anaingiza kutokana kuuzwa kwa nyimbo zake, Rashid alisema, “lots… let’s just say he is happy.” Lakini Shamte alisema kama angekuwa na umaarufu kama Diamond alionao angeingiza fedha nyingi zaidi kuliko sasa.

“If I was hot like Diamond trust me I would be rich and I would not need to have anybody manage me or anything, I would put up a website, I would put snippets of all of my tracks because I can’t really make any money from radio, I would dump a bunch of songs onto radio, I will make sure you can stream a little bit of it but if you want all of it, I will make you pay me 200 using M-Pesa, if you want to download it I will make you pay me a hundred using M-Pesa.”

Jina lake halisi ni Latipher Mkuu, si maarufu sana machoni pa watu lakini ni mahiri sana katika kazi, kama ulivyo mvuto wa umbile lake ndivyo alivyo na mvuto katika kazi ya sanaa ya uigizaji. Kipaji chake kimedhihirika hivi karibuni baada ya kupata fursa ya kushiriki katika filamu ya ‘World Of Benefit’ ambayo ipo katika hatua ya editing ikisubiri kuingizwa sokoni.

Licha ya ushiriki wake wa scene chache ndani ya filamu hiyo lakini Latipher ameweza kuonesha kipaji cha hali ya juu akiwa sambamaba na mkongwe Rose Ndauka.

Akizungumzia umakini wake katika kazi Latipher amesema hivi, “Awali, sikuwa na uzoefu mkubwa katika mambo ya uigizaji, lakini baada ya kukaa kambini kwa siku kadhaa na kupata mafunzo ya kutosha kutoka kwa wasanii wakongwe nilijikuta nikiingiwa na ujasiri, papo hapo nilianza kujituma na kufanya mazoezi bila kuchoka, nafurahi kuona nilichokipigania kimefanikiwa, nitaendelea kujifunza zaidi ya hapa ili baadae niwe muigizaji bora kabisa wa filamu.”

Washiriki wengine aliokutana nao Latipher katika filamu hiyo ni pampja na Mzee Chilo, Hemed Suleiman, Awadh Saleh, Mama Mjata, Timbulo, Peter, Tutti, Miriam na Natalia.
