Fast-rising talented Bongo Flava singer, Rajab Abdul Kahali put an end to his time with Diamond Platnumz’z Wasafi Classic Baby (WCB) records in a controversial way that left many fans with unanswered questions.
Rajab, better known by his stage name Harmonize, allegedly signed a 15 long years stint with Wasafi records as the first Bongo Flava singer signed into the record label.
Harmonize reportedly handed a termination request to the boss and has since missed two consecutive Wasafi Festival Shows.
Many wonder what could make him look down on a label that took him in when he was no one, developed his talent and turned him into a superstar.
Harmonize was born in Mtwara, the capital city of Mtwara Region in Southwestern Tanzania. He discovered his hidden talent at a very tender age and attracted many producers in his country when he was barely ten.

Rumor has it that Harmonize’s reason for turning his back on his 15 years contract with WCB records could be Diamond’s disrespectful song that exposed an alleged relationship between his Italian girlfriend. Sarah Michelotti and Diamond’s former bodyguard, Mwarabu Fighter.
This is unconfirmed though as Sarah already cleared the air, saying she’s faithful to his boyfriend. We are yet to receive an official statement from any of the two of them, but we looks like the two had fallen out.
We love both of both them and can’t wait to see them reconcile again.
