The album features collaborations with Zuchu, Lava Lava, Mbosso, and Diamond himself.
Diamond expressed that despite the few collaborations in his album, Di Voice has primarily focused on producing singles.
Speaking after the formal introduction, Di Voice said he was scared when he was approached by Diamond given the calibre of artist he has grown to be.
After inking his contract, Di Voice who is also known as Swahili Kid said he went home and just cried.
The introduction was followed by a captivating performance where Di Voice showcased his skills and entertained the audience with some of his notable songs, including collaborations with Diamond, Mbosso, Zuchu, and Lava Lava.
Babu Tale, one of the managers at Wasafi, revealed that the label had been cautious about signing new artists due to the departure of previous talents like Rayvanny and Harmonize.
He explained that the experiences with these departures led to the hesitation in bringing in new talent.
“Tumepata hofu, tulikua tunasaini faster lakini tumepata hofu, baada ya kuondoka kwa Rayvanny, Harmonize na Rich Mavoko,” he said in a previous interview.
