They say actions speak louder than words, and so resounding was the message by Diamond Platnumz's manager Sallam SK as he brazenly snubbed ex WCB star boy ‘Konde Boy’ Harmonize at the burial of Babu Tale’s wife the late Shamsa Kombo in Mororogoro today (Monday).
Harmonize arrived at the burial and found most of the mourners seated. In one of the tents, were various VIP guests among them, his former boss- Sallam SK.
Also in attendance at the burial were all artists signed under WCB led by Diamond Platnumz.
After shaking hands with several guests, he finally came face to face with the WCB president’s manager. It has been long since the two shared a platform and in normal circumstances, such a meeting after a long time would have attracted some sparkle and perhaps a firm handshake. But alas! Sallam jerked off his hand in outright rejection of greetings, sending a clear signal that the beef between Harmonize and his former record lebo WCW could be beyond redemption.
After a glowing musical career at Wasafi, the Kwangwaru hit maker quit East Africa’s leading record lebo in August 2019, in a move that left the musical world in suspenseful shock.
Months later, Harmonize would reveal in an interview with Tanzania’s Clouds FM XXL show, that*he had bought his exit, by paying the Diamond Platnumz’s record label Tshs 500 million, an equivalent of Ksh 22M. The amount according to the singer was stipulated in his contract in order to get rights to his masters and the Harmonize name.
Even though, both WCB and Konde Boy sides have tried hard to hold their cool not to wash their dirty linen in public, by revealing the bitterness in their relationship, various gestures albeit silent have continued to disclose the concealed rage.
The act of Harmonize unfollowing all the members of Wasafi clan in all the social media platforms has been just but a movie trailer that has finally culminated into a real episode with Sallam SK bursting the bubble.
Sallam once joked about Harmonize blocking him saying that he still has the keys even if the singer had blocked him.
