“Diamonds” by Young Thug (ft. Gunna)
The “diamonds” which serve as the title of this song are both literal and metaphorical. Or stated otherwise, the singers are presenting themselves as being extremely wealthy. Thus they may opt to ice a woman out they’re attracted to, even if they’re not sleeping with her. And they can also spend money on other pricey items, such as clothes so expensive that they make their rivals jealous.
Indeed Thugger and Gunna throwing their enjoyable, rich lifestyles in the face of opps is the secondary theme of “Diamonds”. And accordingly another way they can spend dough is to employ the services of “a killer” to deal with enemies. So conclusively we can say that the vocalists’ lifestyles are defined by extravagant chillin’, but at the same time they have retained their thug roots.
