"Diary of a Madman" was the lead single released from the Gravediggaz' debut album, 6 Feet Deep. The song was produced by members RZA (The Rzarector) and Prince Paul (The Undertaker) along with RNS and featured verses from Killah Priest and Scientific Shabazz. "Diary of a Madman" was Gravediggaz most successful single, peaking at 89 on the Billboard Hot 100, their only single to reach the chart, as well as 8 on the Hot Rap Singles. The music video was directed by Hype Williams. It is unclear if there is any relationship between this song and Scarface's song of the same name which predates it from the album Mr. Scarface Is Back.
