Diamond Platnumz can charge as low as Kes 500,000 as long as the show is within the boundaries of Tanzania.
But getting Diamond to perform outside the boundaries of Tanzania, you have to be prepared to part with $ 40,000 (Kes 4 million.)

With that said, how much did Kenyan event organizers spend to bring Diamond to Meru? Watanashati Classics parted with a cool Kes 5 million to bring Chibu Dangote to Meru.
Contrary to Diamond’s standard charge of $ 40,000 (Kes 4 million.), the Tanzanian singer had to charge an extra one million shillings because the gig was far away in Meru.
Ehits! contacted one of the directors at Watanashati Classics (wanted to remain anonymous) who confided in us that they spent Kes 5 million to bring Diamond to Meru.
In an interview with E!TV, Diamond revealed he was worth a whopping $ 4 million (Kes 405 million). With the amount he charges to perform and all those brand endorsements, surely Diamond is worth more than 405 million shillings.
