Diamond Platnumz Tests the Amapiano Waters, New Video Garners Over 500k Views Hours after the release

Bongo superstar Diamond Platnumz is joining the Amapiano bandwagon.

The hitmaker has dropped the video to Iyo, a collaboration with South African musicians Focalistic, Mapara A Jazz and Ntosh Gazi.

The colorful dance-filled video is testament to the increased appeal that the Amapiano sound continues to garner on the continent. The numbers have come in droves too, making the Bongo heartthrob break his own record.

In just one hour after it dropped, the video racked up over 100K views. It currently stands at over 457K views, just 6 hours after it premiered.

Previously, Platnumz had broken a YouTube record when his Waah collaboration with Koffi Olomide raked in a million views in just 8 hours. The song would later become the first song to hit over 2 million views in 24 hours in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The new video is directed by renowned Tanzanian video director, Hanscana.
