There's a proverb that the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree that bore it. Prince Nillan, the seven-year-old son of Zari Hassan and artist Diamond Platnumz, has shown that he's in a good position to step into his father's shoes when he retires from music.

In a video that has caused a buzz online, Nillan was seen dancing to the song 'Shu!' which is a collaboration between his father Diamond, and artist Chley.

Nillan was with other family members, including his mother Zari, in the car when they played the song, and suddenly the child stood up and started dancing, mimicking his father's dance moves and style.

Zari, who was recording the video, could be heard cheering him on with excitement as the young boy tried to mimic his father's hand movements and expressions in the 'Shu!' video.

"Wow, my dear! Go for it. Good vibes. Go, my boy. I love this!" Zari applauded her son in the online video that was widely shared.

From the video, which shows of Nillan's dress code, dance style, and hairdo, it's clear that Prince Nillan could follow in his father's footsteps musically.

Unlike many children who rarely follow their father's profession, Diamond Platnumz seems to be an adviser and role model for his children in their music journey.

Apart from Nillan, Tanasha Donna's son, Naseeb Junior, has also been seen following his father's footsteps as far as dressing, hairstyle, and playing the piano goes.
