Martin Garrix
Diamonds
with Julian Jordan
feat. Tinie Tempah
“Diamonds” was released on October 08, 2021, bringing Martin Garrix back together with Julian Jordan for another high-energy collaboration. The track also features British rapper Tinie Tempah, adding a sharp vocal edge to the production.
Built around a hard-hitting drop and a darker, club-focused atmosphere, “Diamonds” stands apart from Martin’s melodic festival anthems of the same era. The instrumental carries a raw, driving energy, while Tinie Tempah’s verses give the record a crossover dynamic between EDM and hip-hop.
The collaboration continued the long-standing creative relationship between Martin and Julian, which dates back to their early career days and tracks like “BFAM” and “Glitch.” With “Diamonds,” the duo leaned into a more underground, late-night sound, making it a powerful weapon in club and festival sets.
The release reinforced Martin’s ability to move between euphoric progressive records and heavier, beat-driven productions without losing his identity.

Yo, yo
Line ’em up, line ’em up
Only strobe lights outshining us
Line ’em up, line ’em up
Only strobe lights outshining us
Line ’em up, line ’em up
Only strobe lights outshining us
Line ’em up, line ’em up
Lit, lit, fired up
Line ’em up, line ’em up
Only strobe lights outshining us
Line ’em up, line ’em up
Lit, lit, fired up
Line ’em up, line ’em up, line ’em up, line ’em up, line ’em up, line ’em
up, line ’em up
Yo, yo, let’s go, uh
You just wanna be around the in thing
I provide a fire, and I burn it up
All they really care about is bling, bling
Sippin’ something slow with a double cup
Ras is clarted, begging no pardons
JJ, Martin, what have we started?
One eye open, no Illuminati
Megs and Cardi’s, up in this party
Mad tings that are really misguided
Stay high ’cause we always on fly shit
Do big tours, moving in silence
All this pressure made VVS diamonds
All this pressure made VVS diamonds
Line ’em up, line ’em up
Only strobe lights outshining us
Line ’em up, line ’em up
Lit, lit, fired up
Line ’em up, line ’em up,
line ’em up, line ’em up, line ’em up, line ’em up, line ’em up
All this pressure made VVS diamonds
Yo, unruly, rowdy
Diamonds are clear, not cloudy
I like the eyes that surround me
Baddie on me, she a rockstar, wildy
She make it bouncy
I’m making magic
They wanna know, how we
I lost the boundary
Shut down the city, and lock off the county
Diamonds era snapshots
