Life (Diamonds in the Dark)
"'Life (Diamonds in the Dark)" is a song by Swedish DJ and producer John Dahlbäck featuring Swedish recording artist Agnes. Dahlbäck originally released the instrumental version of the song called "Life" in February 2012, but later got Swedish singer Agnes to sing the vocals on the re-release. In an interview with American magazine "Billboard" Dahlbäck commented on the co-operation with Agnes; "“She’s one of the biggest pop stars in Sweden, so for me it was a big honor to have her on the track. This may not be what she’d do normally, but she’s very happy with the result.”
The song is released together with three remixes that will accompany the February 25 release. Dahlback selected remixes from Australian upstarts Feenixpawl, fellow Swedish DJs Lunde Bros., and Canadian electro-house artist Lazy Rich.

Life (Sly and the Family Stone album)
Life is the third studio album by funk/soul band Sly and the Family Stone, released in September 1968 on Epic/CBS Records.
Music
Unlike its predecessor, Dance to the Music, Life was not a commercial success, although it has received mostly positive reviews from music critics over the years. Many of its songs, including "M'Lady", "Fun", "Love City", as well as the title track, became popular staples in the Family Stone's live show. A middle ground between the fiery A Whole New Thing and the more commercial Dance to the Music, Life features very little use of studio effects, and is instead more driven by frontman Sly Stone's compositions. Topics for the album's songs include the dating scene ("Dynamite!", "Chicken", "M'Lady"), groupies ("Jane is a Groupee"), and "plastic" (or "fake") people (the Beatlesque "Plastic Jim"). Of particular note is that the Family Stone's main themes of unity and integration are explored here in several songs ("Fun", "Harmony", "Life", and "Love City"). The next Family Stone LP, Stand!, would focus almost exclusively on these topics.

Gangsta Life
by: Beenie ManWell you done know,
When gangsta touch the street,
Food have fi eat
It's a gangsta life
Zagga zow

Cats freeze and beg please
Put them on their knee
We seize the opportunities for our families to make Gs
Bu'n the wannabes
We squeeze and make cheese
Bu'n my enemy
Cats freeze and make please
Put them on their knee
We seize the opportunities for our families to make Gs
Straight from the gangsta town
Kingston, Jamaica, where we hold it down
Fools get killed for the chi-ching sound
Ain't got time to be fucking around
Cause only the strong will survive the streets
Don't fuck around cause the dogs must eat
Punks get fucked up on my beat
Beenie puts it down with the blue steel heat
Gangsta been through lot of wars
Most of my niggas live behind bars
So I'm telling you so-called stars
Don't come around in your luxury cars
Fool, I swear you must be flakin
Come around tellin cats what you're making
Showing off jewels like they can't be taken
You must be mistaken
Gimme dat!
We squeeze and make cheese
Bu'n my enemy
Cats freeze and beg please
Put them on their knee
We seize the opportunities for our families to make Gs

We squeeze and make cheese
Bu'n my enemy
Cats freeze and make please
Put them on their knee
We seize the opportunities for our families to make G's
Well we going straight to your cranium
From the sanitarium
Coming to you heavy like I'm powered by uranium
Unleash my serium
On a whole stadium
And wild chickenhead getting high from avilium
It's like, it's like shit's getting serious
Cats getting personal
Actin all precarious
Niggas from various
Crews get delirious
Wonderin if I'm a Gemini or Sagittarius
Dog this is hideous
By the way I'm curious
I moved along so why you getting furious
Could it be the Grammy tingwhy they are malicing
Or is it because I link with Dave Kelly why them panicking
While I'm rocking it
Beenie Man locking it
You bitchin like a bitch
Fool, put a sock in it
Rude boy cockin it
Hustler stockin it
Anywhere I'm playin at
Ladies will be flockin it
We squeeze and make cheese
Bu'n my enemy
Cats freeze and beg please
Put them on their knee
We seize the opportunities for our families to make Gs
Bu'n the wannabes
We squeeze and make cheese
Bu'n my enemy
Cats freeze and make please
Put them on their knee
We seize the opportunities for our families to make Gs
Straight from the gangsta town
Kingston, Jamaica, where we hold it down
Fools get killed for the chi-ching sound
Ain't got time to be fucking around
Cause only the strong will survive the streets
Don't fuck around cause the dogs must eat
Punks get fucked up on my beat
Beenie puts it down with the blue steel heat
Gangsta been through lot of wars
Most of my niggas live behind bars
So I'm telling you so-called stars
Don't come around in your luxury cars
Fool, I swear you must be flakin
Come around tellin cats what you're making
