 Big shit, big shit, big shit, big shit, big shit, big shit, big shit, big shit, big shit, big shit, big shit, big shit, big shit. Name another podcast like this. Check it, check it, check it, it's your boy E-C-E-O and I'm here with the lovely official Miss Jamaica. What's going on? Yeah, I know, nothing all gone. You good? I'm good. Hey, so man, you know, you know, we got a special guest today. Somebody that I heard, man, it kind of reminded me of Dage Lofield, I told her that too. You know, I can tell you, man, you know, I love a vibe. It's something that relaxes you when you listen to her music. Her flow is just definitely nice, you know what I'm saying? And her backstory is something that I thought was definitely very favorable, something that other people could therapeutically be healed through. So, man, let me just go and introduce her to you guys, man. Her name is Diamond Banks, Diamond Banks, a.k.a. Skinny Mini. What's going on, baby? What's going on? Hey, how you doing? I'm doing good, feeling good. So, you here? Yeah, I'm here. You made it? Yeah. Boss Talk 101. Let me get that shot out right quick. Ooh, just shout out to the team, man. Hey. Everybody, shout out to everybody, man. So, let me ask you this, man, because a lot of people, you know, sometimes people don't know, you know, they don't know. Maybe they don't know who you are, you know. Just tell us a little bit about your story, who you are and just where you're from. Well, I'm Diamond Banks, if you don't know. I'm from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, so that's over a thousand miles from here. Hey. Yeah, that's where I'm from. Grew up on the north side of Milwaukee, but we was always moving around as kids, but we always made our way back to the north side. How did you get to Texas? Ooh, it's a long story behind that. Just trying to find myself outside of my family, so I just kind of went traveling and ended up here. This is what I liked the best, so I ended up in Texas. Yeah, well, when you rockin' with Texas, you rockin' with the best. How long you been here now? Six years. Oh, so you really like it? Yeah. Okay. How long you been here now? 19. Oh, so you really like it? Good. So, when you think about music, what got you into the music? Uh, music was just like an escape. I started out writing poetry, and then that was just too slow for me, truthfully. And then that's how I got back into music. Well, got into music purely. Okay, okay. So, how many, I mean, how many songs do you have a lot of songs in your catalog? Stuff that you've wrote or that you hadn't released, or is it something to worry you're still working on your craft? What's going on with you? I feel like as an artist, you're gonna always find yourself over and over again. So, like, I got music. Some music will probably never be released. And yeah, so, like, right now it's like, I don't sound like how I did years from now. That's why I say you gonna continue to always find yourself. So, yeah, I got old music, but this new thing, like this new me, or just me that I'm the state of mind I'm in now, like, that's the music I'm putting out right now. Okay, okay. That's live. So you ever thought about going back in, like, you have a song that you did but never released it, and you know it's good. You ever thought about redoing it and making something new again? Um, Broken Out Bitter, that song, that's a song that was written a while ago. But it just wasn't the time to put it out because, like he said, like, the music is basically me rapping about my scars, like the wound wasn't closed, so it wasn't a good enough time to put that song out at the time, but now I can listen to it and put it out and feel good about it and it don't bother me to listen to it. So music like that, like, you know, like, right now I'm going through a situation, I can write about it and it just won't be a good time to put it out right now, just because it's something that's still, you know, I'm not healed from or, you know, like, I don't know how to explain it. But I always felt that whenever you rap about something that affected you so much, you end up putting so much feelings into it when you're rapping because you're going through it. I think that sometimes it might, you might go harder that way rather than when you over it and you're doing it, you know what I mean? That's true, but honestly it's like this, okay? It sounds crazy, but like the song that I've broken out better that I put out, right? So it's like sometimes reoccurring things happen. So like I write it then and then something similar might, like, trigger that feeling and then I can go in, but like I'm over that now. It's different, like the song I wrote it then, something might trigger it, I go in and record it and feel good about it because that's like my release now. And then, like, I don't know. To let it go. Right, it's like an ongoing thing, like, I don't know. I know what you're saying. Have you ever, have anybody, I mean have you, you ever signed to anyone? No. Never been signed? No, I've had, more so, the reason why I haven't is because I have this thing of overthinking. So like I had to get myself out of overthinking certain things because I've had opportunities come my way and I've always been like an overthinking. Well, what about this? What about that? Like I've ruined a lot of things like that, but at the same time it's like I have a, like I feel like certain things happen for a reason too. So, you know what I mean? So my spirit wasn't telling me to go that route. I didn't do it. It is what it is like. Yeah. So live performances, where was the last time? I know COVID hit last year, but what was the last time you was able to perform? Oh, it's been a while. It's been a while since I performed. Yeah. Yeah. So because of COVID you've been kind of held back or you have, have you been pushing to perform? Because it's something that you have to do. You have to. Yeah. I'm pushing to perform. Most definitely it's just like the time it kind of been bad like with certain things and then I have children too. I know that. How many kids you got? Two. I got two. Okay. A boy and a girl. Yeah. But are you on Spotify? Oh yeah. I'm on Spotify. I'm on all streaming sites. Okay. How's that going for you? It's a process. It's a process. You're trying to build it up? Yeah. I'm trying to build it up. Well, you know one thing I can tell you is what you see is what you get. It is how the people feel about you. And it's something that I love about the internet and social media as I always say, it's telling you what you're doing and who you are and you have to listen to it. Same thing goes for this podcast. Same thing goes for all elements. Even when it comes to your people who give their intake on what you're doing, they're all free streaming platforms. A lot of times people are looking at you and what they tell you you are, that's exactly who you are. Yeah. In the eyes of the people. Right. In the eyes of the people. Yeah. But that's who you're trying to appeal to is the masses. Right. So you have to listen to them in order to break the algorithm. That's true. I know it. I think I'm fly. You've got to take that negative and a positive and create yourself. You know what I mean? Yeah. You can't be so thin-skinned with the negative because a lot of people do get affected. But they talk bad to me on there, on my comments a lot of times. That niggas need to shut up. Why don't niggas want to let them talk? Let the guests talk and all that. They don't even think about none of that. First of all, they don't even know me. And second of all, I sure didn't see them buying this stuff and putting this store together and spending the money on the stuff that I spent. So most of them niggas broke. Yeah. You didn't hear me? Yeah. Yeah. Anybody can get on the YouTube and make a comment with a blank picture on the thing. Yeah. Yeah. Am I right? Yeah. Niggas flex with me. Niggas, yeah. Let's go. Yeah. Honestly, truthfully. Are we talking? Yeah. One thing they say is, hey, why she so, she always talking about the struggle. Like, Pam is, is she too pretty? Like, she already sell if she talk about what all the other girls is talking about. Why she won't do that? Well, that's not me. Yeah. Keisha Cole talked about the struggle when she first came out. Yeah. I think it's all a process. I mean, life is going to change. Life is going to always change. It's going to be always something to talk about. You tell me, all of your songs are all about struggles? No. Not everything, just going to probably be in that somewhere. I'm sure you have good times too. Yeah, of course. But, you know, like, hard times stick out sometimes. But are you willing to work with people who say, okay, we want to make a song like this or are we going to make a song like that? Yeah. I'm open-minded. I feel like I'm versatile. You know what I'm saying? Are you easy to work with? That's pretty much, you know. I want to say. Are you a drama queen? Yeah. I try to be. Anita Baker, she was one of the dopest singers ever. She came out with that one album and it really didn't do a lot after that. You know, she came out with a couple of them but it was hard for her. And most people that I hear talk about her in different documentaries say she was hard to work with. Said that she didn't, she had bangles. Yeah. But they say she was horrible to work with. Yeah. I mean, I am an introvert. Like, I know that about myself. It just, I go off, you know, energy and stuff like that too. So, I feel energy. I think that's a part of everybody. I said that last night. You know, I think that's everybody. If I come at you in a certain way, you're going to be like, yeah, you know, but if I come at you this way, you're going to be like, okay, you know, so I think that's just a part of human nature. Yeah. I do. But at first, you have to always know who you are. So because you know you're introvert, you need to have that team around you. Exactly. You can deal with certain situations. So when you can vibe with your team, you can always say, hey, I need to delegate. Hey, I need you to do this. I need you to do that. So you don't really, so have to deal with people except from your fans. You have to, you can't get away from that. You're going to have to deal with your fans. So you have to put on a different persona. You know, like you said, your alter ego is skinny. Many, and then you have Diamond Banks. There you go. You can always say, well, Diamond Banks is the person that's not an introvert. You know what I mean? She's the outgoing person. She's this, you know, you know, that person on when you have to put it on to deal with your fans, but other people that you don't really have to deal with, you can let your crew deal with them. That's right. And that's for the most part. That's how it goes. Like even right now, like that's really how it goes. Like the people around me, everybody, why you always got people around you? I always have my brother, both of my brothers around me. Yeah. They speak a lot of time. They just better with people. And you not? Are you the oldest girl? I mean, I'm not going to say I'm not good with people. You're the oldest girl? I'm the oldest girl. Okay. I come from 11. Wow. Yeah. So my mama had 10, but then I have two sisters on my dad's side. How young is the youngest one if you the oldest girl? The youngest. Child. Meet you is what, about four or five. That's what's up. Wow. You have a huge child. I have a big responsibility. Shout out to your mama. Wow. Because she know how to get it done. I don't tell her y'all. Oh, yeah. Y'all hear it nigga. Yeah. AKA get them here. You know what I'm talking about? That's a good thing. Y'all better be taking up. So you ran about yourself. Mother's day is supposed to be lit. Yeah. So my life is serious because I have a big responsibility truthfully. So I try to have fun. Like I have my friends and stuff. I have people like, come on grandma. They call me granny and stuff like that. But I have fun too. But I got responsibilities. How old were you when you moved out of your mom's house? I went to college. I was what? I was 18. I came back home. You look young. How old are you? 26. I was going to say 25. I'm 26. You're young. When is your birthday? November 22nd. You all right person? Yeah. No, but you always wrapping around about all these struggles. So when I look at you, the reason why I ask you how old you were when you left because I'm trying to think about the timeline of because when you are home with your mom and dad, yeah, you know, as kids, you say, yeah, I'm stressed. I have struggles, whatever. But you ain't had that much struggles when you were home. So I'm trying to see the timeline of when you left and how many years you've been having, you know, struggles. Look, I was feeling things as a kid. That's how I understand what you do around your kid will affect them because people say, oh, you not stressed. You don't have bills and stuff like that. But I was seeing my mom and my stepdad go through different struggles. And I was feeling that as a kid. And that made me want to go to my grandma because, like, that's where I feel safe at. You know what I'm saying? So, like, it started at home and my mom took good care of us. We never really had to struggle, like, but my stepdad was a hustler. So, you know, we're coming with that. He was a hustler. Was your dad in your life? My dad was, my dad was actually incarcerated for 21 years, I think. Is he out? And he's doing great right now. Is he? Shout out, what's his name? Rudy. Is he in Milwaukee? He's, you know, he's in that area. He's in Wisconsin. Okay, go ahead. How old were you when he got out? I was what, probably like 2021. So, you was going your whole life? He was gone. Yeah. But he was there, though. My grandma, she would take us to see him every holiday. We got the same birthdays. Me and my dad, she would take us up there. My birthdays. Look out, Rudy. Follow Boss Talk 101. Subscribe. Your daughter is on here today. Yeah. Shout out, Rudy. Yeah. I want to know, how did it feel for you? Because I've always heard people who've been incarcerated don't want their kids to come see them because they don't want them to see them like that, you know, behind. So, you being the kid coming to see him, how did that feel for you? My dad was, I feel like he was as real as he could be at the time. You know, only thing they lied about was how much time he was getting. They never told us that he was facing life. You know what I mean? They would just say, we would be like, so when dad getting out, so it was an ongoing thing that would people, they would just say. He'll be out soon. He'll be out soon. Right, yeah. So that's the only thing they pretty much lied to was about my mom. Him and my mom wasn't together, but my mom always gave us that blessing for my granny to go take us to see him and stuff like that. That's good. Yeah, that's heavy. You know, you didn't feel no way. You know, you didn't feel that. I was sad. I was upset in ways. Sometimes I even found myself, like, my father. Like why would he even put himself in a position to be away from us? You know what I mean? But like it passed over. Then I had my brother in my ear. He's like, nobody could say nothing wrong about my dad to my brother, my oldest brother. Oh, yeah. How old is your oldest brother? I think he just turned 28. So he don't play by dad. Yeah. He didn't back then. He did. Okay. Yeah. That's good. That's good. Y'all have a good relationship with both mom, dad, stepdad, yeah. I always feel like I was blessed to have two fathers. Like, people don't look at it that way. But yeah, I feel like I was blessed. Yeah. It was different for me. I kind of resented my stepfather, you know, a lot of times. I mean, I think that's natural even like sometimes, too. Like it came. Because I wanted my real dad to be there. You know, like, I ain't okay, nigga. I see. And like, I was like, you know, I sold them guns and, you know, sold them TVs, did different stuff with him. And he became a good friend, you know, over the time. And then I seen how he stayed with my mom until she passed away. There you go. My mom passed away and he was right there at the bedside. And I was like, dang, that's heavy for him to stick it out all the way to the end. I remember when when she passed away, he was like, she gone now. He was sitting in the hospital right there. So, you know, I can't say he didn't do his part. Wow. So, that's kind of how things be when you really see how stumped down somebody else. You be like, yeah, you're a real one. You know what I mean? Yeah. So sometimes you don't know as the process go. I feel like me and my brother, we gave our stepfather a run for his money. Like, we really did. I bet. But the thing is, like, he would always try to bribe me, like from day one. From day one of him dating, he was around since I was two years old. That's the only man I ever seen my mama with ever. Wow. So, let's get on the music again. So, you got how many albums or how many mixtapes? I have, I have three singles out right now. You got three singles. So, you haven't even, have you ever put out a full body of work? Not like, not recently. Like, not like some like, I'm just going to say no, not right now. Meaning you had to revamp your whole brand? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. And that's, that's something because sometimes you can, you can reinvent yourself. You don't have to stick with something that's not working. And a lot of people fear change, but a lot of time that change is needed in order, you got to have big changes in order to see things change in a big way. Definitely. You see what I'm saying? You got to, sometimes you could try different things. You don't have to stick with one thing. You, you can try different things. Don't you agree? Yes, I totally agree. You have to, I mean you have to because at the end of the day, at the end of the day, you know, it's, it's something to be, you know, because the music industry is oversaturated. There's a bunch of horrible music out there. There's a bunch of good music out there. It's a bunch of bad attitudes out there. It's all kind of stuff out there. Where do you fit in that whole conglom? You asked me, how do I fit? Honestly, I just feel like, like I'm different in my own way. Like I'm different. Like I just use music as like therapy. And I know it's people that can relate to it. And I feel like that's what makes me different. Like my story, I know it's people that's somewhere in this world is people that can relate to what I talk about. So I don't really like, when I make music, I don't really think about like, how am I different? I just know it's going to touch people like with the same story or relatable problems or whatever, like moves. Cause every song is not like problematic song or whatever, but I know it's somebody that's going to feel me. That's true. That's true. Have you had an opportunity to work with meet any big, big time artists? Yeah, I have. One of my favorites was Kevin Gates. I never forget. I met him years ago. Okay. But recently I worked with OMB Peezy. Okay. OMB Peezy. Yeah. I've worked with him. He's like one of my favorite artists. So we reached out. My team got that together for it. So I was happy about that. Really? Okay. So OMB Peezy, what song y'all worked on together? I put him on one of my songs Dreaming. So the song is Dreaming 2.0. Yeah. I think, didn't you send me that one or no? I didn't see you doing with Peezy on there. Why not? I don't know. It's not out yet though. You should have sent it to me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I needed to hear that. Yeah. I'd love to hear it. I definitely want to hear what you're working on and make sure that if it's something we can bring out, it may have been something that made this interview something different. Yeah. You just never know. So always, when you go on platforms, send them everything so they can really dig in. You know what I mean? Yeah. So what made you want to come and be on Boss Talk? Yeah, let's get that out the way. There you go. Oh. Because, I mean, I like your character for one. Oh, you've seen me, huh? She's like, you just don't stop. Wow. See, that's what they think about me out there still. Ain't nothing wrong with that. I don't stop. What? What is you saying? What do I don't stop? You just don't stop. I just say whatever. Boss Talk, huh? Boss Talk 101. He goes down. But it's not a bad thing because she still wanted to come on. Yeah. And I'm going to I don't know. I like it though. Did you like the way it is up front? You like the way the whole thing was set up? Yeah. That's a nice platform. And that's what everybody say, man. I love all the people that God put in my way to where they like, you know, because it's a lot of them reaching out. I mean, it's a lot of people reaching out. We not even rocking with and it's money involved and everything. And I just, because I'm blessed, I just want the people who God put in my life to be on here. So when I pull you in, it's a reason. It's like, okay, we can do something. You know what I mean? You know, and that's what I'm looking at. I'm looking at building relationships with people that are in my way, you know, and people who really, really love music and who really, really care about their artistry. You get it? It got to be, it got to be right. Yeah. It got to be, it got to be good, man. You know, so, you know, the thing I can say is make sure, you know, whenever you not here, you tell people about boss talk. Do that for your boy. You know what I'm saying? I mean, shout out to, what's your brother name? Rob Bino. Rob. Rob base. Big Rob. Big Rob. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Big Rob. So that's what I'm calling it. So Big Rob. Yeah. Yeah. I hope to be doing spend a lot of time with Big Rob. I like, I like how he vibes. Yeah. For sure. So, so I got a question. I see you were in your headphones with one on your ears and the other one off. She cool. Why is that? I think I was what, 20, I'm going to say 22. I probably was 22, but I had like a minor stroke. So like, something like, one side of my, you know what I mean? Like, can't taste. The hearing is kind of off a little bit. Like, it's just crazy. And that doesn't affect your music? Mm-mm. Because I'd be in the studio rapping like this. Sometimes it doesn't really bother me. Or I just record on a low, like a low base, like low value. Right. It just depends. And that's crazy because it doesn't show. You can never tell unless you tell somebody. It's a blessing that you're able to, but you have to watch probably what you eat and what you do. Don't get too stressed and all of that, right? Yeah, definitely. What level of a stroke was it? It was real minor. My mom, I went home and visited my mom and she was like, look at me. And she's seeing me drooping and she got scared or whatever, went to the doctor. I stayed. And that's what they told me it was. Wow. Did it scare you? I didn't even know what a, honestly at the time, I wouldn't really, I'm like, what is a stroke? And to my mom started sending me pictures of how people turned out after the fact and my grandma came into the room and prayed with me and stuff. I'm like, oh, it's a serious, like, yeah. Are you very spiritual? I am. I can't run from it even when I want to. That's good. Yeah. That's good. You have to, that stage where that happened, a lot of people never survived even from a minor stroke. And for the main fact that you're still here, you have a purpose. You have something to fulfill. So you have to hold on to that and try to affect people positively. You know what I mean? And be able to talk about God and tell them about him as well. Yeah. Most definitely. What do you think? What do you think? Do you think, where do you wish to be for the next three years? In the next three years, I want to finish this year off strong, truthfully. So it's like... Who y'all plan to work with? Plan to work with anybody else? Who would you like to work with for the years out? I really don't have a set person. Right now, it's just like, and I don't mean this in a way, no type of way because honestly, I like music. It's a lot of artists that I am a fan of, but I'm just focused on who Diamond Banks are out. And if I end up meeting somebody and we can get something together, cool, but I want people to know who Diamond Banks is this year. Wow. That's my biggest thing. Have anybody got in your DM and be like, hey, what's up, this such a such? Yeah, I've been having a lot of blue checks in my views, like crazy, so it's like, ooh, I told my brother, I said, bro, why are they watching us? What are we doing? Go, like, just go. Like, so I'm like, okay, let's get it. Let's do it. I think they watch. I think they watching to see if they can get in on the opportunity and they look at all the artists. I think that's what they do. What's the most surprising thing that ever happened to you or music is concerned? Like somebody who reached out to you and you're like, oh my God, this person, like, look at this. Oh no. I don't know. Something that blew your mind. I don't know. I'm gonna just go back. I remember when I didn't, like, look at music or, cause I'm from Milwaukee, right? I used to do these shows back home, like, too much talent. Like, just go to perform and, you know, and one time I went on a set with, I went on a set with one of my home boys. I was on the song with him and he was like, at the end of the show, I had another show after that and Tony Neal, I'm not, I'm not sure if y'all know who Tony Neal, Tony Neal and all them, the core DJs back home. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So they like, they used to call me back then and say, hey, Miss Money, come back. Tony Rees and all them. So I'm like, what? So I told Robb was outside the club, waiting for me so we can go to our next show. And they came back. There was a lot of people there. They like, we gonna send you to Atlanta to perform. I had never been out of the city or nothing. So they sent me out there. And that's when I was able to meet like Kevin Gates and all them. That's when they was just starting up, Rich Homie and all them. They was just starting off. So I'm like, How was it like, How was it like being those guys? Um, I don't really know, because it's been like so long ago. I was just like young and right. I'm here. How was you about what? I was, we was fresh out of high school. Oh, okay. 18. Yeah. Yeah. That's a good thing though. At least you got that opportunity. That matters, man. You got the opportunity to do something that a lot of people never do. So I like it. You know what I'm saying? I want to ask you a question. What is your top three artists of all times that are alive? Any genre? It doesn't have to be rap. It can be anything. Oh, I got to go with Tupac. Hold on. Tupac. Back again. My guy. Young boy. Tupac. Young boy. He locked up. He's going to talk about nothing. Tupac. Young boy. He locked up. Let's go. Who else? Yeah. See it. I ain't going to say it. See it. Who is it? I have to go. I'm going to just go with Dejlo. Dejlo. Dejlo. I ain't heard nothing from her in a minute. Where's she been? What's up, Dej? Yeah. I guess old boy hurt you. You ain't came back out yet. What's his name? Little Dirt. I don't know. He probably went from Dirt. Yeah. Somebody heard him. Yeah. She ain't been back out. What happened to her? I work with Dejlo. Maybe I need to get on the show and just ask her what's she doing these days. She's probably like, I'm not, I'm not, basically, I'm not, not putting a knot right now because I'm busy. I'm working on my, myself. You know, I know I'm just trying to paraphrase what she would say. Probably. Yeah, whatever. That's your homegirl. I would like people to say that you, that they remind you of her? Yes. I used to get so bad. Dejlo, let me see. So you said Tupac. Who else did you say? Young boy. Young boy. And Dejlo. And Dejlo. Why would you get mad? Because who wants to be like somebody, right? Mm-hmm. But at the end of the day, I, it's like, I don't even think I sound like her. I think it's more so persona. You know? I don't even, I really don't, I ain't heard from it so long. I don't know how you sound no more. Maybe, maybe, have she had anything come out here recently? Uh, she had a, um, Maybe I'm just, I ain't staying close enough to the streets. I don't think that she, I don't, I don't know what it is. She up there in Michigan still, or where she living at now?
