It was a "Stilettos" kind of night.

Five years ago, the Knowles sisters and Jay Z were the centers of the infamous "a billion dollars on an elevator" Met Gala controversy that showed Solange and the New York rapper engaged in a physical altercation. All is well on the homefront for the three family members, and since then Solange has returned to the Ball's red carpet to showcase her high-fashion styles without incident.

On Monday, the Met Gala's "Camp" theme brought outrageous and extravagant displays of fashion, and while Solange usually is an active participant of the event, the When I Get Home singer dressed-down in a python skin Salvatore Ferragamo 'fit with matching thigh-high boots. Solange looked demure as she posed for photographers on the red carpet, but that was a far cry from her Met Gala after party that was Turn Up Central.

In all of their "Knuck If You Buck" glory, Solange called on Diamond and Princess of Crime Mob to perform at her post-Gala shindig. The Houston singer shard clips of the ladies onstage in front of a hyped crowd that almost drowned them out from singing along so loud. Diamond also shared the video on her Instagram page and wrote, "LAST NIGHT WAS MAD REAL QUEEN 👑💚💚💚@saintrecords 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 THANK U 💃🏽💃🏽 FOR HAVING US———- @princessdigital We Did DATTTTTTTTTTT."
