The rumors have spread for days now, but it is official, Diamond has left Crime Mob to pursue a solo career. According to Sohh.com, Crime Mob hit the red carpet at Tuesday's (November 27) Dirty Awards in Atlanta and guess who was missing from the group? Yes, you're right, Diamond. Despite the split, the members of the group say they wish her well. "Diamond is no longer in the group right now," Princess told SOHH. "She is working on a solo career, but we still wish her well. She has a mixtape called B-word Music. Go check her out on MySpace. It's still love, but we had to keep the business going and keep money flowing." Although there is no beef, Crime Mob's Princess said she is sad for the departure of Diamond, but the group has to move on. Aside from the group change, Sohh reports that Crime Mob is working on their next album, while Princess herself is working on a new mixtape slated for December. According to her, there is no features and no skits. Nothing except for Princess.
