Zambian social media went into overdrive last night after news broke that Tanzanian superstar Diamond Platnumz was in Lusaka not for a concert, but to perform at a private wedding ceremony hosted at Glynview Events.
Videos and photos quickly surfaced online showing Diamond delivering an electrifying performance at the event, with the bride, groom, and guests dancing and singing along to his hit songs. The unexpected appearance left fans stunned and thrilled.
However, what truly got Zambians talking was a second video that emerged later in the night this time featuring Yo Maps, one of Zambia’s most celebrated artists, also performing at the same wedding. He serenaded the crowd with his chart-topping hit “Peace of Mind” featuring Roberto and Superman featuring Omarion, from his recently released MY HERO album.
The back-to-back performances of two African giants at one exclusive wedding has now ignited serious speculation online could a Diamond Platnumz and Yo Maps collaboration be in the works?
While nothing official has been announced, the idea of the two award-winning hitmakers teaming up has excited fans across borders. A joint effort between Yo Maps and Diamond Platnumz would not only bridge Zambia and Tanzania’s vibrant music scenes, but also serve as a cultural crossover moment with global potential.
Industry insiders also highlighted that booking Diamond Platnumz comes with a hefty price tag, reportedly reaching over $100,000 USD (approximately ZMW 2.6 million), making his appearance at the private event even more exclusive and buzzworthy.
