In the wake of Danity Kane‘s latest break-up, duo Dawn Richard and Aundrea Fimbres rise like a ‘Phoenix’ on their new collaboration.

Housed on Richard’s new independent album ‘Blackheart’, the track sees the ladies trade verses about overcoming adversity and negative forces.

Hmm.

Take a listen below…

Questionable mixing and effects aside, this made for an engaging listen. Definitely packs a much more potent punch than the previously released snippet suggested.

‘Blackheart’ lands in stores tomorrow.

    Incredible…. You just cant argue with the drive and purpose, #TALENTOVEREVERYTHING the content is always beyond her exposure & pay grade, but she is consistent as a writer, Singer, & performer #TEAMDAWN

    • You tried January 14, 2015

      TEAMDAWN. SINCE DAY ONE B 4 THE BREAK UPS AND ALL BACK WE. MAKINGTHEBAND WAS ON AIR!!! EVEN DAY26 ON THE SHOW SAID DAWN “WAS THE TRUTH OUT OF ALL THE GIRLS”. ALWAYS FELT DAWN AND ANDREA WAS THE FORCE ABD I WISHED AT THE MOMENT DIDDY ASKED HER AND DAWN WERE THEY READY TO MOVE FORWARD ANDREA SHOULD HAVE SAID SHE WAS READY!!!! But HEY THATS Y DAWN IS HER OWN FORCE NOW!! This SHOULD ANSWER ALL UR QUESTIONS ABOUT WHO ANDREA RIDING WITH JS

        Well sundries was flakey from the jump. She said she was leaving the group before diddy fired Aubrey and d woods. Her heart wasnt into being in the group after the 1st album was a mess with management leaving, rumors of break ups, girls leaving rumors etc.

    It’s such an amazing record. Their voices blends so well together and so effortlessly. Dawn’s Blackheart is going to be on fire tomorrow.
    Now that’s a duo that can actually contribute something of quality and substance to the music industry. Why didn’t Diddy think of making them a duo instead of dirrty money?

    • AmbeRussell January 15, 2015

      Because he always had hopes of working with dawn, and using her on his own project, which was 1 of the many factors to the group disbanding in the 1st place. Also, sundries was flakey; she wanted to leave the group prior to the other girls actually getting fired. But when u have Aubrey doing broadway and a wild child, swoops focusing on her group/stuff with her sister etc, dawn working with the boss doing stuff just with him and sundries iffy about staying with the group….and diddy mad he was called out for working with dawn all factored into the group disbandment.

    Dreas vocals were so lackluster on the dk4 leaks that I almost forgot she can blow like this. Legit, the chorus actually took my breath away the first time I heard it.

    • DYE January 14, 2015

      Yeah I miss that Drea too. Wth was the Stereotypes thinking? It’s not a DK album if Drea ain’t blowing.

      • taqueria arandas January 14, 2015

        Honestly I think the Stereotype were just too close with Aubrey to get the best out of everyone

    Dayum Andrea! Those vocals, Woooow!!! Tbh, I don’t follow the solo careers of anyone in DK very much. That said, this has to be the most impressive track I’ve heard yet from any member.

    • Royalkev January 14, 2015

      *Aundrea

    What a pleasant surprise. I wonder what Aubrey and Shannon are thinking right now especially since they are supposed to be the new DK.

    • Fly January 14, 2015

      Aubrey was DK’s way of getting publicity but she is a trashy zlister so she was not even good at getting that last year. Besides her image, trashy as it is, she offers nothing. Vocal is mediocre, she is not the best dancer and she does write. neither is she creative. Shannon is just a backup dancer even though she improved more than Aubrey vocally.

      All the still from their video is nothing spectacular. Their gimmicky blonde thing is over done. Meh. Shannon is almost 40. Who are they fooling? U wanna start acting like a barbie at 35? lol

      • musicMatters101 January 15, 2015

        That was really rude on all fronts! Shannon has always been the (best) dancer of the group. Aubrey is talented. All 5 of them together had the X Factor. None of them solo will ever be a big star. I wish them all well, and a reunion in the future.

    • musicMatters101 January 14, 2015

      They never said they were the new Danity Kane. Stop creating mess.

  7. DanYiel Teflon January 14, 2015

    I actually like Dawns sound & Adding Andrea didn’t hurt especially when she’s a Singer in her own right!! Congrats!!

  8. Jojo January 14, 2015

    Well, well, Dawn pulled off a surprise one. Dawn is coming out swinging. Music award for my girl!

  9. Nikk0 January 15, 2015

    Nice!!!! 10 stars ********** The video better be epic…..

  10. musicMatters101 January 15, 2015

    Better than I expected. It would have made for a great Danity Kane song and even album title. Seems a bit shady since Aubrey had posted a picture saying they recorded “Phoenix” in studio….

    Either way, for me personally Aundrea made the song.

  11. mcking January 15, 2015

    its one major song totally love it n people stop shading Aubrey if u don’t like her its ur problem don’t make it ours #sips tea. I love Aubrey’s voice its not that voice that u cn compare with someone else’s its unique n it stood out. listen to her verse on damaged you’ll know what I’m on about
