Dawn Richard‘s hustle is finally paying off!
Yes, while a number of her ‘Danity Kane’ sisters have chosen to take a more ‘relaxed’ route to success, the last two years have seen Richard generate a loyal group of followers, by way of a steady flow of progressive R&B and music videos a few of her contemporaries could learn from.
Now, find out why she’s on course to becoming 2013’s leading R&B it girl, below…
In what will come as mind blowing news to all close to her, her new album ‘Goldenheart’ has debuted at #8 on iTunes UK’s R&B chart.
Now, while there’s been some effort in the past to downplay this chart’s worth, her arrival on the tally comes as an impressive feat considering her lack of physical promo in the nation and the chart’s highly competitive nature of late.
This, following releases by Rihanna, Miguel and Alicia Keys and the recent ascent of Destiny’s Child ‘#1′s’, all of which have continued to outsell more recent entries day on day.
Helped in part by a ‘Goldenheart’ banner placed on the digital outlet, the album’s promising UK run comes after it came in at #24 on iTunes USA, and follows the demise of ‘Diddy -Dirty Money’, in which she performed in alongside ‘Bad Boy’ boss Diddy.
Still don’t have the album? Buy it here!

what a boring day…. 🙁
McD advert is so much fun than this news.. RIP
Yeah..ok enough of this b*******, I’m hungry as f***. “WTF” Where’s my Big Mac n**** b****?
Get a life!
If you hustle in life like she hustles someone would be writing articles about you and calling you one to watch. Why come down on someone with a superb work ethic? Just ignore, commend or support.
lol
Tut! TGJ and the r&b chart that no-one knew of….
It’s the same R&B chart Rihanna is always selling the most on, so sit.
not even the official rnb charts, itunes and its been 1 day
Won’t get to top 3 though in the US will it? Imitating copycatitng w****.
Brandy stans are still pressed?
It already did which is why she released the video early.
Get that hate out cha heart bran stan. Just pray for better for ya fav, pray her hustle creativity and drive reach Dawns someday.
Talent is one thing, history is one thing but live in mediocrity if you do not have the work ethic ambition or drive…..
Really? I LOVE Brandy–always have & always will. Brandy’s and Dawn’s music have very little in common. Very easy to love both. Try it. It won’t hurt.
“Two Eleven” = dope
“Goldenheart” = dope
See how easy that is?
That’s so good. It’s one thing to do that in your country but to do it another is major.
i just watched the 86 video and i was impressed… dawn never disappoints with visuals…hope the album does well….
This is the same chart that the navy stan for her when Rihanna is winning but as soon as she’s not on it they call it a flop chart. Poor zat.
what does Rihanna have to do with anything? Besides, the navy hypes up the UK top 100 iTunes album charts more than R&B. Get it right.
GET IT MAMA. I love that tgj show her so much love cos I wouldn’t have seen that 86 video if yall didn’t post it.
Lmfao! At the first three comments will you know what they say if you have haters that means you’re doing something right 🙂 Im so so proud for Dawn been a fan since early last year just to see how far she’ve come she is truly a force to be reckoned with play on play on
I love me some Dawn! She is a hardworking chick!
so wait….that means all that money is giong into to her hands since she’s an independant artist!! call it what you want but dawn is making bank.
YEEEEEPPPP!!!!!!!
INDIE is the new MAJOR.
One Direction “Jungle” http://www2.zshare.ma/6238jqejtrmh
she deserves this and much more.
All her hard work will pay of one day or another. So she just needs to keep doing her thing, her fanbase will get bigger with each proyect she releases, thats how it works, at the end of the day
So happy for her! I’ve always had this thing for Dawn & Aubrey! I’ve followed them since Making The Band when they were killing competition, repeatedly sending challengers home to make the Danity Kane group. I’ve never seen anything like that before and that’s why I respect them both (even with Aubrey doing Playboy). Dawn’s hustle says a lot about her and I’m inspired. I wish her continued success!

Goldenheart is fantastic… Point, blank, period!
Creative goddess
Bought “Goldenheart” today and listening to it as I type this. Loving it!
Once again she proves that she is one of the artists at the forefront of progressive R&B music. So proud of her. 🙂
“Gleaux”………
I bought Dawn Richard’s album and this is quality music from start to finish.
Progressive R&B! We no longer have to re-live the 90s. We can look forward and be proud that RnB is taking shape in a new and unique way.
Congratulations Dawn!
INDEPENDENT and HOT as all hell. Dawn is winning if people like it or not. She is one of the hardest working females out now and people want to hate on that. Wish your favorite artist the best and don’t bring down another that is killng your favorite right now. Goldenheart is hot!
Congrats to Dawn and all her success!
I love dawn The fact that she is coming so hard is really breaking me outta f the whole shes meant for groups mentality I dont really like goldenheart in its entirety because the whole album is not as cutting edge as pretty wicked things or the break down in gleaux(she needs to make a comestics line and trademark that lol) I wish she pressed that envelop nuffin I love R &B and I love Dupstep pop electronica and I cant wait for what blackheart has….my point she did her job because I want more I need more the first album I ever bought was emeniems the show and goldenheart is the second …..blackheart and redemptionheart will be 3rd and 4th
