.โBecoming is me affirming my future success and celebrating how far Iโve come,โ says Diana. โIโm doing a lot of self-care, Iโm ignoring the fuck boys.
I got about five real friends that I shower with love and Iโm the glue that keeps my family together. I got a lot of work to do but I got a lot to celebrate too.โThe music video was shot by the multidisciplinary visual artist
Maxime Quoilin
(
Jay-Z, Travis Scott, Justin Timberlake, Tom Ford
and more).
From the videoโs stunning aesthetic, delicious color palette and power of female connection, every aspect of the video showcases and gives us a glimpse into Dianaโs creative and artistic vision.
She opens up her video with an unreleased interlude calls โ
The Mountain Interlude
โ. A one-take cinematic performance sitting on top of a carousel horse in front of a breathtaking view.
You feel every word and believe her when said โs prayed for a moment like this.
The rest of the video follows suit. Diana worked closely with
Maxime
styling the video, dressing the girls from her closet and online finds.
You canโt really go wrong with classic black patent leather loafers and white ankle socks. The cast, made up of her friends, beautiful women of color serving girl gang sorority realness in the chicest way.
The rest of the video is an entertaining quality insight on who Diana is.
A multi faceted woman, who unapologetically and consistently celebrates and lifts up other women. The video gives us a small insight to her references which include 14th century renaissance art to 90โs grunge and culture.
Diana assures us with the song and video, if you were with her shooting in the gym, you always have a seat at her table.
