NASEEB ABDUL (DIAMOND)
He stayed in the shadows for long looking for a
break but now that the limelight has been trained on him, he has proved
that he belongs at the top of the music charts. He finally made a debut
in 2009 with his hit song “Kamwambie”.
He is one of the most expensive musicians not just
in Tanzania but the region and this does not seem to put promoters off
as he is on the stage on a weekly basis. Want him for a show, you will
have to pay him $4000 (Sh350,000). And that’s after a bargain.
This has enabled him to make a fortune for himself
in a very short period of time. He owns mansions in Tanzania, acres of
land, cars and shops.
JOSEPH HAULE (PROFESSOR JAY)
He began his music career in 1990 with a group called the Hard Blasters. It is this band that started the music style known as ‘muziki wa kizazi kipya’. The artiste has acquired his wealth through the many shows he does internationally.
He owns a beachfront mansion which has an in-built
studio, drives a modest Toyota Spacio but don’t let that fool you, it’s
not that he can’t afford fuel because he makes good money from his
music and owns several parcels of land and is also a serious investor.
She started her music career at the end of the
1999. She is one of the most respected Tanzanian artistes and has
remained humble through her success. She is very hard working and this
has led her to accumulate a good fortune to her name.
Her garage pays homage to a Nissan Murano, a
Toyota Coaster minibus, Toyota Prado among others. She of course can’t
own all those and rent. She owns a mansion. She also invests heavily and
owns a band by the name Machozi.
AMBWENE YESAYA (AY)
He started his music career back in 2000 with the
group East Coast. The group later split and he continued to do his solo
music together with his close friend Hamisi Mwinjuma (Mwana FA). They
are still close friends and have been friends for more than ten years.
AY likes to keep his personal life private and
stays away as much as he can from the cameras. All the camera shyness
may fool you but he is one of the richest artistes in Tanzania. He has
derived his wealth from the many shows he does and the international
events that pay him handsomely. He has a collection of cars, a clothing
line with his name and several boutiques.
He is the owner of Unity Entertainment Company which produces programmes like the famous ‘Mkasi’
which is broadcasted on East Africa Television. He recently did a
collabo with Lil Romeo that got some good reception across the
continent.

Fela. He later left and formed his own group called ‘Wanaume Halisi’.
He owns a fleet of taxis that operate in Dar es Salaam; he owns acres of land and a home.
