As Making The Band 4 wraps up yet another season, many are probably wondering about the status of Donnie’s project. After all, both of the groups – Danity Kane and Day26 – have released their albums this month. Word has it, Donnie’s album will drop in August and will be lead by this new track titled ‘Take You There’.The song, which features Diddy, has a distinct funk feel to it. I’m really liking the production, the arrangements etc. A solid track, for sure. However, there is a problem; I don’t ‘believe’ Donnie. Something about all of the material I’ve heard thus far sounds kinda forced/contrived. Whilst his Making The Band co-stars seem to have a stamp on their respective sounds, I get a ‘sing whatever is given to me’ vibe from Donnie. Perhaps, its due to the way he’s been portrayed on the show so far, I don’t know. Whatever the case, at this point, I’m thinking Diddy should have given one of the other group rejects a solo deal instead of Donnie. Time will tell if he proves the naysayers wrong…
Hit or Miss?
I’m sorry but this sounds like a 2nd rate S*** Back clone…
donnie’s trynna do pop urban music and in the industry two of the same kind of musician’s can’t exist, there’s justin, and only him, robin thicke goes harder but no shine, donnie’s voice is better that justin’s, AND I’M ROOTING FOR HIM! believe that the groups got song given to them first LP its for him to know what he wants to sing and what kind of artist he wants to be. he needs to do this cd how he wants, test the waters and then when he grows as an artist, he’ll do his thing. he should def. be playing some piano on his record too, i’m LOVING DONNIE THO!!
ooh and his vocals are bomb, i just watched his performance on the making the band finale, a better stage show is necessary but it’s just the beginning and the same goes for day 26 but i enjoyed him more, his voice is S***, SOO CLEARLY and his falsetto was amazing, even diddy lol!! i’m loving donnie and danity kane, day 26, lol all the D’s
It sounds like…PRINCE
Dont like this….house pop beats
much to my surprise, i kinda like it. it might actually grow on me. i would be interested in hearing more before i declare myself a fan.
Kinda Justin-ish but sounds better then S*** back its growing on me.. HARD… (although i hated the live performance)
