The Guess Who’s American Woman, famously covered by Lenny Kravitz, was an unflattering portrayal of U.S. females (or the nation’s political climate, depending on whom you ask) by a band from Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. Today, forty-plus years after its release, Diamond brings a little balance to the conversation with a new single also titled American Woman, and loosely inspired by the ‘70s hard-rock hit. Over Non-Stop‘s radio-ready synth boardwork, the Crime Mob alumnus (a performer in The DJBooth’s recent A3C showcase) reps for the U, S of A—showing a little extra love, of course, to her hometown of ATL. US Virgin Islands-repping crooner and longtime DJBooth regular Verse Simmonds sings the headliner’s praises on the chorus, and director Dr. Teeth handles the official visuals. Like what you’re hearing? More fresh material awaits on Diamond’s The Young Life tape, released to the ‘net at the end of August.

The visual is less than impressive, but the I'd be lying if I said I didn't find the record catchy. This could make noise at radio, ya know if radio didn't need to be paid off by labels to play records.

The beat reminds of Letting Go by Sean Kingston. Eerily similar. Diamond's flow is ok, not really a fan of femcees. Verse Simmonds provides a nice smooth chorus though.

Diamond's flow was OK on this...the chorus by Verse was pretty chill. Not a track I'd add to the MP3...
