El Diamante Negro
Los Tucanes De Tijuana Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fue adoptado por la mafia cuando sus padres murieron
Se hizo experto en los negocios
Esa educacion le dieron
Respetado y misterioso
Asi es el diamante negro...

Jefe de la nueva mafia a lo bueno acostumbrado
Lo apasionan las muejres los corridos y los carros
Tambien los cuernos de chivo
Es un hombre de cuidado...

Siempre vestido de negro con su gente de confianza
Charly el rey detras del trono
Eminencia de la banda
Su lugar teniente a el perro
Graficario y guardaespaldas...

Un comando bien armado
Acompañan al diamante
Todos bien encapuchados y entrenados en combate
Decomizan toneladas
Y llas venden por su parte
Asi es como han hecho lana y han llegado a ser ran grandes...

Su cartel sigue adelante
Y nadie puede pararlo
Ni los conrtas ni el gobierno
Han podido amenendrarlos
Su poder sigue subiendo
Y el de los contras bajando...

Hedero la inteligencia
De su padre verdadero
Se disfraza de viejito
De negrito y barrendero
Por eso es que nadie sabe
Quien es el diamante negro...

Agresivo y corajudo
Con poder y experto en armas
Varia gente a su servicio
Con granadas y metrallas
Alterado del cerebro
Y con hambre de venganza




Asi es el diamante negro
Jefe de la nueva mafia...

Overall Meaning

The song El Diamante Negro by Los Tucanes de Tijuana tells the story of a man who was adopted by the mafia after his parents' death and became an expert in business. The song describes him as respected and mysterious, known as the "black diamond." He is the leader of a new mafia and is passionate about women, corridos (a type of traditional Mexican music with narrative ballads), and cars, as well as weapons such as cuernos de chivo (literally "goat horns," a type of assault rifle).


The black diamond is surrounded by a group of trustworthy individuals, including Charly, the "king behind the throne," and his lieutenant, Perro, who serves as a graphic artist and bodyguard. They are all dressed in black, and the diamond often disguises himself as an old man, a black man, or a street sweeper to avoid detection.


The song also alludes to the diamond's involvement in the drug trade, as he and his well-trained, heavily armed commando group confiscate and sell tons of drugs, making them incredibly wealthy and powerful. Despite attempts by law enforcement to stop him, the diamond's cartel continues to gain strength and influence.


Overall, the song speaks of a dangerous and powerful man, living a life of luxury and violence while remaining elusive and mysterious.
