As reported here, ‘Bombs’ beauty Dawn Richard dropped yet another explosive music video to accompany the banger ‘Wild N’ Faith‘.
Lifted from the stellar ‘Armor On’ EP, the ELY-directed clip is filled with imagery and dance-sequences that are quickly earning Richard recognition on the solo front.
Always eager to please fans, just in case the original version of the video didn’t tickle your dance bone, the newly lifted version will quickly act as reminder of how Dawn can cut a rug. See it below:

SO talented, but no one is paying attention. She’s amazing, and needs someone to mold her a bit more, give her HUGE budget and then unleash her.

You’re right. Her whole artistry is very high standard and executed with excellence. She may never get the high high sales and recognition but when we look back it’ll be very clear she was a stand out talent in this era. I don’t know what her budget is but everything looks better than what these top, big-budget artists are putting out.

This song and video is beyond EPIC! I was ambivalent about Dawn as a solo artist before, but I feel like I just witnessed greatness. I respect that she is an independent artist who is putting out quality product. She is determined and I love that.

She is the ultimate artist. This woman can dance & sang both amazingly. I’m rooting for her too, but Imma actually put my money where my mouth is & get “Goldenheart” on the 16th of October. I hope everyone else who appreciates her talent does too.

I just did not know she could dance like this. When you couple her dancing with her vocals which if you heard her live this girl can really sing, I can only say that she is one of the best artist out right now. Everything I pull up about her is dope how people don’t know about her is amazing.

@Owww, thank you! Janet is just THE DEAL!
So glad that you loved “Armor On” too. It is in my top ten this year–amazing piece! & I’m also glad that you’re supporting Dawn with your dollars on 10/16. Like you said, her hunger and hustle are undeniable. She DESERVES success.

Yes Armor On is the truth oh hell yeah we have to support real artists cuz then maybe we will see a change in music and we wont see the same ol same ol on the charts or tv screens. Yes Ms Jackson will always be the deal, she is definitely a woman who can do no wrong in my book!!!
