Popular Tanzanian musician, Diamond Platnumz, has slammed Forbes Magazine for ranking him 20th on the list of richest African musician. The singer took to Instagram to blast the global media giants for reporting his net worth as $5.1 million a week ago, and tasked them to ‘’google me to know what am really worth of, before putting me on your Stupid Richest African Musicians List.’’
