Gucci Mane – Yellow Diamonds (prod. Tra Beats, The Headbangaz)
A classic Gucci Mane track called “Yellow Diamonds,” sometimes spelled “Yella Diamonds,” has become one of his most popular to date. The album version of the song was produced by Tra Beats (and is listed as being produced by The Headbangaz on mixtapes). This song was featured on his “Wilt Chamberlain: Part 3” mixtape that he did with DJ Rell and Trap A Holics, as well as his “Gucci La Flare mixtape” that was put out with Evil Empire. When his fans were first presented this track, they knew that it was an instant banger. It is songs like this that makes everyone want to keep Radric Davis in rotation on their playlists. Everyone knows that the instrumental for this track, along with the catchy chorus has made it a huge hit.
This song can also be found on the album “Murder Was The Case” which was released through Big Cat Records. The album version is roughly 3 minutes and 6 seconds in length, while the mixtape versions are 4 minutes (Gucci La Flare) and 3 minutes and 38 seconds (Wilt Chamberlain: Part 3). There is a variation of this song on the mixtape Gucci La Flare 2 featuring Tha Joker called “Aqua Water” with the same chorus and instrumental. Take a listen to all of the versions and see which one you prefer. This song sounds great in the ride and the chorus saying “aqua water, toilet water, pissy yellow sh*tting on ‘em, club life, club night, shawty got a hella chain, hella game, hella fame, drop top Corvette yellow mane.”
Is this one of his best tracks of all time? Well, that is completely up to fans to decide. Earlier polls revealed that the people liked his song “Bricks” the best in 2009. There are so many good tracks, that there is no need to compare this material to his other joints. He has a great ear for beats and only picks out what he thinks will have a high quality sound. Gucci Mane has some of the most catchy lyrics and choruses out of any artist in the game. If you take a listen to this track, it will likely be stuck in your head for awhile, so be prepared.
