Published on November 5, 2019, the feud between Diamond Platnumz and Ali Kiba has been a topic of discussion in the Tanzanian music industry. The two artists have been at odds with each other since 2018, with the latest incident reigniting the beef.

On October 30, 2019, the internet was abuzz with a war of words between Diamond Platnumz and Ali Kiba. The conflict between the two music stars on social media was a clear indication of the widening rift between them. Ali Kiba, who refers to himself as the 'King Kiba,' was not pleased with Diamond's invitation to perform at the Wasafi Festival in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

The Beef Between Diamond and Ali Kiba

The feud between Diamond and Ali Kiba dates back to 2018, when Diamond allegedly showed disrespect to Ali Kiba. According to Ali Kiba, Diamond had requested him to sing a part of a song, but later used the same part in his own song without giving credit to Ali Kiba.

Ali Kiba revealed that he had been supportive of Diamond's music career, but Diamond's actions had hurt him deeply. He stated that he had even called Diamond to clear the air, but Diamond had denied any wrongdoing.

The incident had strained the relationship between the two artists, and it seemed that the beef would never end. However, the latest incident has reignited the feud, with both artists trading barbs on social media.

Despite the ongoing feud, fans of both artists are hoping that the two will put their differences aside and collaborate on a song. Only time will tell if the beef between Diamond and Ali Kiba will ever come to an end.
