PHOTO | KEVIN ODITTanzanian songstress Saida Karoli has refuted claims that she received money from Diamond Platinumz for the adaptation of her song Maria Salome. “My manager called me to tell me that Diamond was asking for my song to promote it again. However, I was shocked later to hear and read from the media that Diamond paid Tsh 25 million in an agreement,” said Ms Saida in an interview with KU TV. Also, there was an undisclosed amount paid to Ms Karoli in the agreement that will see the proceeds of the remix shared equally. Mr Sharaf also posted a photo of Mzee Felician Mutakyawa, a representative of Ms Karoli, witnessing the signing of the deal with Diamond.
