Diamond Platnumz eyes Grammy glory despite 2025 setback

Bongo Flava star Diamond Platnumz may have missed out on a Grammy nomination this year, but he’s far from discouraged.

During a high-energy performance in Dar es Salaam on November 20, 2024, Diamond expressed confidence, declaring his journey to the Grammys is far from over.

“As an artiste, it’s my job to create great music and put it out there,” Diamond told the crowd. “Failure isn’t something to hate on—it’s a chance to push harder, do better, and figure out where we went wrong.”

He continued, “Next year, who knows? We might not just get a nomination, but we could walk away with 10 Grammy awards.”

Despite the setback, Diamond remains hopeful, attributing the absence of his name from the nominations to a possible submission error.

With his hit “Komasava” still gaining millions of views, Diamond’s Grammy dream is alive and well.
