Rayvanny on July 12, 2022, officially parted ways with Diamond Platinumz’s record label Wasafi after six years.
The Bongo singer expressed his gratitude to his former boss and recounted some of his highlights in Wasafi in an emotional tribute video uploaded on his social media.
Rayvanny is the only artiste to leave Wasafi without any drama with the label. Other musicians were caught up in a quagmire when they left WCB.
The first drama that was witnessed when an artiste was leaving Wasafi occurred in 2018 involving Rich Mavoko.
In 2019, another drama played out at Wasafi after Harmonize demanded to leave the label before his contract expired.
It’s now emerging that Rayvanny was warned not to cause any drama like Harmonize and Rich Mavoko.
Wasafi FM presenter Baba Levo, who is tasked with defending Diamond in the media, revealed that Rayvanny cried when he was told not to create drama to generate hype around his exit.
“Diamond is the first artiste in Tanzania, the one who take after him is Rayvanny and that is after 38 years. There are artistes who did well and are no more.
“I told Rayvanny to not leave WCB. Diamond told me that artistes want to be near him but when they go near him, they feel small. Diamond has shown he has peace and has given him all the blessing.
“Rayvanny cried before Diamond when Diamond told him that he should not create beef between them. Because he has made him famous and rich.
“If he tries to fight, we will fight back. We will work the way he wants us to work. If he fights Diamond Platnumz, we shall kill each other,” Baba Levo said.
