Bongo Flava superstar, Diamond Platnumz has been called out for stealing music concepts from Nigerian powerhouses, Burna Boy and Wizkid.<\/p>\n

Chibu released a new jam just Wednesday, the 26th of February on YouTube but fans were quick to take note of the song\u00b4s similarities with Joro and Angelina.<\/p>\n

Wizkid is the voice behind Joro as Burna Boy takes up Angelina.<\/p>\n

Flocking the comment section – that was later disabled – fans blasted the Tanzanian artist for lacking originality.<\/p>\n

Not just the two jams, fans believe Diamond also sampled Wizkid and Burna Boy\u00b4s \u00a8On The Low\u00a8 hit.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A section pinned the blame on fact that the three artistes shared the same producer – Kelp Vibez – for the particular hits.<\/p>\n

However, others were quick to note that Diamond sounds just like the Nigerian heavyweights, therefore lacking authenticity.<\/p>\n

History repeats itself<\/h2>\n

It is sad. Diamond and his Kenyan lover, Tanasha Donna hit the headlines for basically the same reasons just last week.<\/p>\n

Thursday, the 20th of February, Brazilian singer, Iza publicly faulted the two for taking up video scenes from her \u00a8Brisa\u00a8 jam.<\/p>\n

The lovebirds were forced to pull down the video since.<\/p>\n

So now, a different case is already cooking.<\/p>\n
