Diamond Platnumz Decides To Export Nigerian Culture To The East In His New 'Wonder' Video
If you are a foreigner who wants to glimpse Nigerian culture, look no further than in Diamond Platnumz's latest Wonder video.
Tanzanian singer and songwriter Diamond Platnumz has finally released the music video for Wonder which is track number 7 in his critically acclaimed First Of All EP. The well-narrated music video was shot in Lagos, Nigeria and it sees The Boy From Tandale using a large portion of the visuals paying homage to Nigerian culture.
Starting with the gorgeous chief-like costumes worn by Diamond Platnumz in his fancy car to the elegant Agbada worn by the bride's father at the beginning of the Wonder Video, Diamond Platnumz has, without doubt, brought the beauty of Nigerian dressing styles to East Africa's doorsteps.
