Muthoni Drummer Queen took her time to call out popular music streaming service for pushing Congolese music maestro, Koffi Olomide real name Antoine Christophe Agbepa Mumba in a collaborative song with Diamond Platnumz.
Muthoni Drummer Queen strongly believes the song ‘Waah’ as written and performed by Diamond Plantnumz and Koffi Olomide should be removed from the number 1 music streaming service in Africa, Boomplay because Olomide is a convicted rapist.
Muthoni Drummer Queen took to social media asking BoomPlay to stop promoting Diamond Platnumz’s hit song ‘Waah’ that features Koffi Olomide because by then, they are promoting a convicted rapist.
“Koffi Olomide is a convicted rapist.” Muthoni Drummer Queen shared on her Instagram account. “@boomplaymusicke you need to de-platform this song and stop putting your promotion budget behind an abuser.”
Boomplay Music and/or Koffi Olomide hasn’t responded to Muthoni Drummer Queen’s poke asking them to pull down the ‘Waah’ hit song from their platforms.
