New Music: Rihanna - Diamonds (Remix) [feat. Kanye West]


With Rihanna currently embarking on her 777 (7 Countries, 7 Days, 7 Shows) world tour to commemorate her seventh studio album 'Unapologetic', Kanye has decided to add a little bit of his own fuel to the fire creating even more hype on top of Rihanna's latest single 'Diamonds'. From our point of view, we're not too keen on this remix. We're big fans of Yeezy and what he's doing at the moment, but we can't help but feel this remix is somewhat lacking in character and feels as though it that was written on the back of a McDonald's serviette in a hurry. He toys with his obsession with of the 'illuminati rumours' that have surrounded him and his camp, whilst at the same time making a clever reference to the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, all in all it will not be a record that will live long in the memory...
