I would love to have the kind of lifestyle Diamond Platinum leads, but without being under any management, every time I think of being under my management, my blood pressure rises, I prefer being an independent artist because I believe my previous management to some level exploited me and I am to blame because I let them do that.

If I had good guidance on investment, I would be doing better than I currently am, I made a lot of money but I was young and an orphan and lacked an advisor to guide me on how to invest and better manage my finances, that's my regret.

There are good promoters in the industry like Diamond Platnumz’s promoter and manager. Ali Kiba’s manager and promoter are equally good. There are people (managers and promoters) whom I fear. Back in my days I did so well musically but not financially. They made me fear artistes’ management to an extent where if I get one today, I must scrutinize him well – just to know how the artistes that he managed are faring.

My stage name is bigger than what I own. I was used. I was hurt since the beginning. I got very little from album sales of my music. If journalists can visit my place and see the deplorable condition I am living in, Tanzanians would open their eyes (and see the exploitation artistes are exposed to).
