This was a song written by Edwin Star in 1969. It is an anti Vietnam war protest song. As he said “WAR HUH!!, WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR?….War nothing but a heart breaker, war a friend only to the undertaker”.
“Little is known of Sierra Lonne and how it connects to the diamonds we own”
Diamonds from Sierra Lonne by Kanye West was released in 2005. It is a protest against the trade of illegally gotten diamonds from Sierra Lonne, where children where forced against their will to mine diamonds. Most of these children would die in the process and more would be taken away from their families.
The United Nations passed the United Nations Security Council Resolution in 1n 1998 which crippled the trade of the “blood diamonds”.
These songs are very different as Diamonds are Forever has a more impactful video as opposed to “War”. The genre of music is also very different as War was more Motown while Diamonds are Forever is more modern and more hip hop vibe.
