Diamonds was released by Rihanna in 2012 as the lead single from her album Unapologetic, and it quickly became one of her biggest worldwide hits, reaching number one in many countries. Its anthemic chorus and polished pop production made it a natural choice for inspirational videos long after its chart run. On short-form video and soundboard platforms, the hook is now commonly reused for reveals, celebrations and triumphant moments, keeping the song familiar to audiences who may know the chorus better than the full track.
