To me, it is really interesting to see that the stereotypes about Tanzanians being a bunch of people who believe in witchcraft and have a crab in a bucket mentality.

If I were in Diamond Platnumz marketing team, I would be thinking this is a potential gold mine. You see, it is clear that our guy lives absolutely rent-free in the heads and minds of Tanzanians.
