Willy Paul is one of the most successful artists in Kenya today, no one is denying that.<\/p>\n

However, if you take a close look at his music career you’ll realize that he has been mirroring Tanzanian singer Diamond Platnumz for as long as we’ve known him.<\/p>\n

Wikipedia describes mirroring as, “the behaviour in which one person subconsciously imitates the gesture, speech pattern, or attitude of another.<\/p>\n

Others people would describe that habit as mimicking, copying, imitating, impersonating, and what have you. I’m a civilized person, so I’ll say it as it it, it’s simply copy-pasting.<\/p>\n

If you look at Willy Paul and Diamond Platnumz closely, you’ll see a l0t of similarities.<\/p>\n

From their music styles, to their controversial lifestyles, relationship dramas, bad-boy attitudes, down to their dressing styles.<\/p>\n

Diamond is the bigger deal between the two, you don’t need a rocket scientist to tell you that Willy Paul is the copy cat.<\/p>\n

Actually, Willy Paul has admitted on several occasions that he looks up to the Bongo star and that the two of them just have identical lifestyles and tastes.<\/p>\n

I don’t have a problem with Willy Paul mirroring Diamond, that’s not what this article is about.<\/p>\n

You see, the Tam Tam<\/em> hit maker is a talented singer. But as you all know, talent will take you no were so he opted to borrow a leaf from Diamond so that he’s always on people’s lips.<\/p>\n

Just like Diamond, Willy Paul portrays this image of a rebel who does not give a hoot about what anybody thinks and it’s working for him.<\/p>\n

He is often on the wrong side of the law, releases raunchy gospel songs, has baby mamas around, owns a studio, lives a flashy lifestyle and what have you.<\/p>\n

But then again, Willy Paul is the most successful artists in Kenya. If you’ve been to any of his events, you’ll admit that he often pulls large crowds.<\/p>\n

He doesn’t come cheap. Word is that he charges anything from Ksh. 600,000 to Ksh. 1 millon. Yup!<\/p>\n

When all is said and done, it seems mirroring Diamond is working for him. As they say, if it’s not broken, don’t fix it.<\/p>\n
