"Diamonds" is a song by American rapper Fabolous, released by Def Jam Recordings on April 3, 2007 as the lead single from his fourth album, From Nothin' to Somethin' (2007). The song features fellow Def Jam artist Young Jeezy, and was co-written by both performers along with Yung Berg. Coincidentally, the voice sample heard in the song's hook is also Young Jeezy, from his guest appearance on another Fabolous song, "Do the Damn Thing", from the latter's previous album Real Talk (2004). The original version of the song featured Lil Wayne, but was changed due to Def Jam wanting to have a fellow Def Jam artist on the song. The song was produced by Steve Morales. Upon release, the song premiered on iTunes. On the week dated April 21, 2007 the song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 83. This song samples Jay-Z's line, "said she loved my necklace, started relaxing, now that's what the fuck I call a chain reaction" from the 1998 Jermaine Dupri song, "Money Ain't a Thang".
