We all know that sliding into the DMs of big continental superstars is like trying to catch a unicorn – nearly impossible. But who would have thought that even a multi-award-winning superstar like Makhadzi would face the same struggle?
The Limpopo-born hitmaker recently took to her social media to share her hilarious plight of trying to get Davido and Diamond Platnumz for a collaboration.

She revealed that she had been sending messages to both artists for the past five years, but alas, no response. Talk about being ghosted by the big shots!
In a witty post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Makhadzi wrote, “I was going through my DMs, Please don’t laugh, I have been DMing @davido @diamondplatnumz saying ‘hello my brother can we please work on something together?’ And no one replies. It’s been 5 years now.” She even added that she sends more than 12 messages every year. Now that’s dedication!

Internet users found Makhadzi’s struggle both relatable and amusing. Some commented, “They’re both upcoming artists, reaching out to help them is so generous of you. If they don’t want your help, leave them.”
Others took the opportunity to shoot their own shots, pleading, “Hopefully one day they will reply…for now, please reply to my DM.”

One user even shared a clever hack, suggesting, “Diamond Platinum is friends with DJ Naked and Andile Ncube…reach out to them, maybe they can sort you out with Diamond.”
While Makhadzi’s attempts to collaborate with these superstars may have been met with radio silence, her humour and perseverance have certainly won the hearts of fans. Who knows, maybe one day Davido and Diamond Platnumz will finally reply and create magic together. Until then, let’s keep the DMs flowing and the laughter rolling!
