Tanzanian music superstar Diamond Platnumz has once again made headlines, not for a chart-topping song, but for a rare and heartfelt confession about fatherhood. In a recent candid interview, the Jeje hitmaker opened up about his children, the complexities of paternity, and the emotional responsibility he carries as a father — regardless of biology.

“I have about 4 to 6 kids, but I know not all of them are biologically mine. I’ve done some DNA tests, but I don’t talk about it. These kids see me as their father, and I don’t want to hûrt them. I just focus on giving them the best life I can. That’s what matters to me,” Diamond Platnumz shared.

The Bongo Flava sensation, whose real name is Naseeb Abdul Juma Issack, is no stranger to controversy when it comes to his personal life. Over the years, Diamond has been publicly linked to several high-profile relationships, including with Ugandan socialite Zari Hassan, Tanzanian model Hamisa Mobetto, and Kenyan singer Tanasha Donna — all of whom he has children with.

Diamond Platnumz’s revelation sheds light on the silent struggles many public figures face behind the glamorous facade. His decision to raise children he may not have fathered biologically demonstrates a deep sense of compassion and emotional maturity. In an industry where image is everything, this level of transparency is rare.

The Waah! crooner emphasized that what matters most to him is not DNA, but love, responsibility, and being present in his children's lives. “These kids didn’t choose the circumstances they were born into. They just need love, and I’m here to give them that,” he added.

The revelation has sparked mixed reactions across social media, with fans praising Diamond for his honesty and commitment to fatherhood, while others speculate about the identity of the children in question. Still, many agree that his stance challenges traditional views on fatherhood in African societies.

As Diamond Platnumz continues to dominate the East African music scene, his dedication to his role as a father — biological or not — adds a new layer to his already complex legacy.
