Exclusive: Diamond, formerly of Crime Mob, signs with Ciara’s ex-manager

Sandra Rose December 9, 2008

I just got off the phone with rapper Diamond, formerly of Crime Mob, who confirmed rumors that she recently signed a management deal with Ciara’s ex-manager, Philana Williams.

As you know, Williams steered Ciara’s to dizzying heights before Ciara’s career came crashing to earth earlier this year after Williams dropped her.

After shedding Ciara, Williams hit the ground running, signing new British talent Estelle as well as Diamond. Williams also has young singer Tiffany Evans in her stable.

Diamond cited Williams’ past A&R work on Usher and Jay Z’s albums as factors in her decision to sign with Williams.

“I’ve been watching her moves,” said Diamond. “I’m very excited. She’s somebody I want to have longevity with throughout my career.”

Expect a new album from Diamond in June or July of next year.

You know what…Diamond is pretty enough to have a breakout year! Does she even have a record deal?

She needs to refine and soften her image… And get a crossover hit

Just trying to be positive before Jai Jai comes back and calls us bottom dwellers again!

***********OFF TOPIC***********

Let’s play a guessing game…….

What is approx. 11.2 cm long. Shaped like a cube and has a cord attached?

When somebody finds out tell me, because (REAL TALK) it was just removed out of an 87-year old’s twat!

It was medically named “Foreign object”.

SMH – IDK

Good luck to her! She better keep her personal business to herself before Philana gives us another series of the Diamond Diaries right here on sr.com
kwallace577

oh hail yeah. you RIGHT dbrown.

i, for one don’t want to dwell on the bottom.

ahhhhemmhemm….. (stepping up on the soapbox)

diamond….i am feeling you can have something stellar happen to you under new management. congrats gurl! i am rooting for you!! i will support your newest endeavors by not turning the radio to the grown folks station when it comes on. i also will not turn it off if i walk past my daughters room and hear it blaring and catch her doing some lil hoochie mama dance to it. if she tries to download the new hotness that you are sure to come with i will instead encourage her to purchase it with her earnings through a store. to help get you paid. so you can stay AWAY from that jack leg designer dude…

awe hell… this convo took a left.

brb.

OH LAWD here i go

Who the fuck does diamond think she is she is unkown and unheard of crime mob didnt even go gold yet this GIRL thinks shes about to be something? Her album will FLOP BIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG TIME and she better save her 20K advance or whatever it was because rap is not her future, she better get into writing and producing, i have dled and listened to both her mixtapes and the first was decentt and this new one is pure SHIT esp that annoying ass song my skilttles.

Diampond needs to tkae her pretty ass to school or get her GEd if she doesnt already have it

Hey, the female rap game is wide open…nobody else is steppin up. I say good luck to her.
Charles

WOO, sorry if that was a bit crass, but im over it all she raps about is weed and drinking and how sexy she is. Like seriously come on girl the first mixtape especially fuck the world was great writing but this “NOW” shit is going to get her nowhere except a repod white escalade and a foreclosed home.

I’m thinking this is more along the lines of “elder abuse”. This broad was 87 years old. And the measurements and description does NOT fit that of a “microphone”.

LOL at the gossipers. Girl I want to call the other hospital and ask them EXACTLY what it was. The description said it was a “cube”. A cube? WTFH – what the fukkin’ hell!!!!!??????????
purepisces

@ Prynn

Soap on a rope?? LOL!! =D
kwallace577

it is a “her” charles. she is getting sent to the alternative skool after christmas. the one with all the lil miscreants and misfits. she THOUGHT my momma was going to show up to pick her lil azz up today. i did not know the meaning of “relief” on somebody face til i walked into the asst. principal’s office…”i thought nana was coming.”

after her beatdown and the silence from her room now (she finally stopped the crying…after 40 minutes)

i haven’t the heart to knock…and tell her nana is coming…for dinner. she will be here by 5 p.m. est. turning the wheel over to Jesus…and my momma. who again has over 40+ years of exp. with hard-headed little girls.

Kwalls…Ahem…. =)

Oh yall this ain’t the first time this has happened to an elder. There was an elder that had a “blue cap” removed. She was bout in her mid to late 80’s. There was a 40 y/o man with a “fragmented “yellow” apple” covered in feces. I will NEVER look at apples and p-nut butter the same. That is my snack of choice and I don’t even have.

LMAOOOO the dr. just called like “Prynn your still in my case. Can you get out.” LOL

Yall know I’m STILL outdone.

You know darn well Phillana didn’t drop Ciara. Anyway congrats to her for signing Estelle. That is pretty significant. Diamond and the other uknown chick, not so much. I don’t want to hear from Diamond so I can’t even wish Phillana luck with that one.

Oh lord. Philana, don’t do it! Estelle, Tiffany Evans, then… DIAMOND?

Mannn, one of these kids is doing their own thing. Without talent.
terika83

Sandra you are funny…report the news and even have a biased opinion but don’t LIE. You BEEN told us that Ciara fired Philana so don’t change it up now.

I agree Ciara needs to go back to Philana….she isn’t as relevant now and lately she’s been rocking the “sasha fierce” look….
terika83

On another note….Diamond can’t rap…sorry.
terika83

@CaramelDrop…Nicki Minaj would DEF. eat her alive…she’s prettier too. I think Diamond is just avg imo.
butternutSquash

“I’ve been watching her moves,” said Diamond. “I’m very excited. She’s somebody I want to have longevity with throughout my career.”

*********************************************

I find it hard to believe that Diamond knows how to use the word “longevity” properly in a sentence… LoL… She didn’t say that!

Good, for her. Now who’s she going to hire to do her hair?
