Diamonds and Pearl is real. The reality is that regardless of race or social class, circumstances like Diamonds are more prevalent than people choose to except. What's even more upsetting is that these issues are betrayed as black ones, but are statistically universal. Pearl has the life of a princess, but it's built on the backs of murder and tragedy. Diamonds is looking for a way to survive in a world that's closing in on him. What K'wan did was put a face and a voice to situations that are being ignored. How can you not respect that? In order to understand where we're going, we have to explore we've been.
