Diamond D – “We Are The People Of The World” feat. Kurupt x Tha Alkaholiks (Video)

I love what Diamond D is doing by releasing a video for almost every song off of his dope ‘The Diam Piece’ album that’s out right now. He dropping all the videos at the right times too which allows the album to continuously breath new life for those that slept. Not us though. We’ve been banging various joints on the radio show with regularity. This time around Diamond D takes it back to the West Coast on the production with Kurupt & Tha Alkaholiks for their collaborative ‘We Are The People Of The World’ track. It has that West Coast snap with excellent visuals directed by Dr. Zodiak. Niiiiiiiice

Diamond D featuring Masta Ace – “Ace Of Diamonds” (Video)

Brand new video from Diamond D’s incredibly dope album ‘Diam Piece’ that’s out now. There’s a lot of dope joints on the project & this collaboration video with Masta Ace is another one from that project. I’m glad to see Diamond is releasing videos from the project with all of the quality collaborations he’s done to make the ‘Diam Piece’ a success. Great title for this song which is an obvious play on words on both of their names. This project Directed & Edited by Varras Tower also features cameos from music industry veteran Dante Ross, Kid Capri, Atlanta based emcee BIGREC, Jamal from the rap group Illegal, 8ball of the legendary Memphis Tennessee group 8ball & MJG, & more.

BIGREC – “Doomsday” (All Tracks Produced By Diamond D) [Album Stream]

artworks-000079936475-0fc3ey-t500x500

Where did this dude come from!?!? How does an emcee born in New Orleans, raised in Oklahoma, stomp through the Atlanta indie Hip-Hop circuit, link with the legendary producer Diamond D… who declares that

REC is part of the new school of emcees, but he still has that eternal Hip-Hop sound which made me gravitate toward him, and I don’t gravitate toward nothing I don’t believe in 100%.”

Dope…oh yeah back to the question… How does such an emcee as BIGREC come along to take the world stage just as Hip-Hop makes its full revolution (RHHIB); ready to receive him?

Well, who can know for certain? Do you question every blessing? Okay then. Why not spend that time enjoying this FREE stream of the album that officially launches Diamond D’s Dymond Mine Records label, “Doomsday.” Featuring the likes of R.A. the Rugged Man, Blake Moses and TH5PENTAGON – with a nod from the DJ Premier – you could go through the link below and cop a copy of the work. You know, to collect your own evidence and make your own case… that Real Hip-Hop Is Back. RHHIB!
