Residing in France at that time (in the Paris region), <strong>Diamen <\/strong>met the brother of his best friend who was also a <strong>DJ.<\/strong> A meeting that gave way to different musical evenings.<\/p>\n\n<p>&#8220;With the shyness, we waited for him to leave on Wednesday afternoon to start taking the <strong><em>Mic<\/em> <\/strong>quietly after school.&#8221; One thing led to another, different connections were created in the world of music. Among others in the field of soul, reggae and sound system.<\/p>\n\n<p>Little by little, they started meeting a lot of <strong>rappers <\/strong>in France and Montreal. In particular, we perceive a change of style depending on the people Diamen met or the places in which he found himself.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How do you qualify as an artist?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Diamen-perfo.jpg\" alt=\"Diamen-perfo\" class=\"wp-image-2019\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Diamen-perfo.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Diamen-perfo-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Diamen-perfo-1024x427.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Diamen-perfo-768x320.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Diamen-perfo-1536x640.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Diamen-perfo-24x10.jpg 24w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Diamen-perfo-36x15.jpg 36w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Diamen-perfo-48x20.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>As strange as it may seem, <strong>Diamen<\/strong> has done a lot of sound system or <strong>radio<\/strong> animation during his career. Thanks to this, he was able to develop different contacts with people from all over the world.<\/p>\n\n<p>From this information, it is easy for us to understand why his style can be described <strong>as eclectic<\/strong>. A wonderful mix of all the musical styles he has heard or crossed paths with during his <strong>life<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>Whether with key personalities in the world of reggae (with <strong>King Shadrock<\/strong>) or with friends of his, who dedicate themselves a plus to the world of hip-hop or trap, all this is only synonymous with a common atmosphere with the right people #lesBonsAmis.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Among all the songs you&#8217;ve released, is there a song that deserves a little more attention?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Cn4j5A5gSB-\/\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n<p>Already, there is the new project <strong>Mauvais direction<\/strong> which is composed of 7 tracks with hip-hop sounds on completely different instruments and music bases. Whether in the themes or in the way of singing or posing, all this constitutes a new direction that the artist wanted to give (<strong>or bring to life<\/strong>) directly to his audience.<\/p>\n\n<p>With breathing choruses and singing a little more than usual, <strong>Diamen <\/strong>offers us a real musical composition that stands out completely.<\/p>\n\n<p>Despite the fact that he has released many projects before this one, the latter still seems to convey the same style of values, namely: the proximity of <strong>fraternal ties<\/strong> and the conquest of new objectives.<\/p>\n\n<p>In addition, Diamen has also produced a song in collaboration with artist Aldo Guizmo entitled <strong>Loin de la maison<\/strong>. A sound that speaks to people from different backgrounds, finding themselves several <strong>hundred kilometers<\/strong> away from their families and friends. A song that definitely deserves more attentive listening than the others.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image borderimg1 textsize\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/mauvaise-direction.jpg\" alt=\"Wrong direction\" class=\"wp-image-2034\" width=\"256\" height=\"256\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/mauvaise-direction.jpg 600w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/mauvaise-direction-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/mauvaise-direction-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/mauvaise-direction-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/mauvaise-direction-24x24.jpg 24w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/mauvaise-direction-36x36.jpg 36w, https:\/\/mtlonline.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/mauvaise-direction-48x48.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 256px) 100vw, 256px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/album\/5bC2forLyTlID1VSngLuAk\">Spotify<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why the title &#8220;Wrong Direction&#8221;?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>Bad Direction qualifies in sound as someone who does not have too much morale.<\/p>\n\n<p>&#8220;You didn&#8217;t just make good resolutions. <strong>Wrong direction<\/strong>.
