what i dont get is the message of this song. is it a plea to throw up your diamonds and forget riches or wealth? are those diamond studded sunglasses?
@vels619 and apparently you do? Your trusting untrustworthy sources. YOU grow up and stop trying to act like you know everything because you read conspiracy theories.
@Hatamoto227 ok but it's not a patti smith song, he's very self-absorbed and uses to focus about clothes, cars, bags, hotels and, of course, DIAMONDS!
Lets be honest - Kanye West is a genius regardless of his Taylor Swift stunt. He apologised for that, and how can Beyonce's Single Ladies which won the best overall award not win the Female award?? Kanye pushes music to the next level both as an amazing rapper and producer. There's no better rapper-producer than him. Fact.
Thanks my friends Jay Z, King KANYE, Beyonce and especially you Rhiana. These are my true friends within the music industry and this is why WE will forever rule the world, who is going to tell us differently here? That is my song to you my friends, CRAZY WHITE BOY - ALPHA
If you love Hip Hop please check out my channel.I have a music video out and great songs that will make you fall in love with Hip Hop again,if you had ever lost the faith in it.
@alberto0986 I Think he said jay z killed him on the remix tothis song to kiss ass cause he fuckin merked this shit and your right his album is a fuckin masterpiece honestly every album from graduation to now is awesome !!!
Can you believe this is the same man who couldn't get signed to a record deal for the live of him back in the early 2000's? They all said Ye West couldn't spit. Amazing, isn't it? Keep working at what you believe in, I guess thats the message.
Oh my god that was such a spectacular performance. I've loved Kanye for a long time but I had no idea he was such a great life performer. If I ever get the chance to see him live I'm jumping on it.
Brilliant, brilliant man. His ego doesn't change his skill.
"Diamonds From Sierra Leone" is Kanye Wests LIVEST Song HE EVER PERFORMED!!!!!!!
