In 2017, Hallelujah got more than 1 million views within the first 24 hours of being uploaded on YouTube. However, later on the song was banned by the Tanzania Communication Regulatory Authority (TCRA).

Apart from Diamond who is representing East Africa, others featured on Rhythms of Zamunda include; Tiwa Savage, Tekno, the late DJ Arafat from Côte d’Ivoire, Prince Kaybee and Msaki of South Africa, and Fally Ipupa, Nasty C, Toofan, among others.

The album is curated by CEO, Universal Music South Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa Sipho Dlamini, who said that it was important for Def Jam Africa to be involved because the first film was so legendary to Africans in the diaspora.
