Tanzanian gospel recording artist, minister, and songwriter Joel Lwaga joins forces with Bongo Flava superstar Diamond Platnumz for a heartfelt new collaboration titled “Nikumbuke.”

“Nikumbuke,” meaning “Remember Me,” is an emotional prayer from someone patiently waiting for God’s appointed time. As blessings unfold in the lives of others, the song turns feelings of pain, uncertainty, and longing into an honest plea for God’s remembrance, favor, and intervention.
Bringing together two major voices from different sides of the East African music scene, the collaboration blends Joel Lwaga’s inspirational gospel approach with Diamond Platnumz’s emotional Bongo Flava delivery.
At the heart of the song is the experience of watching others receive breakthroughs while still waiting for your own. Rather than expressing jealousy, the lyrics acknowledge the human pain of waiting and turn it into prayer—asking God not to forget the person who is still hoping, trusting, and believing.
Diamond Platnumz delivers some of the song’s most vulnerable moments, reflecting on everyday struggles such as financial pressure, housing, business, and the desire for a better life. Joel Lwaga anchors that emotion in faith, giving “Nikumbuke” the feel of both a personal prayer and an encouragement to anyone going through a difficult season.
Ultimately, “Nikumbuke” carries a message of patience, hope, faith, and divine timing. It reminds listeners that waiting can be painful, but there is still room to pray, trust God, and hope for a breakthrough.

usiniache na mimi
Usiniache na mimi baba nakungoja
Unapowapa riziki wengine,
