@MusicMatters101: I dig a lot of what you're saying but I get frustrated at those who don't open their minds and ears to black artists who aren't a pop machine (Beyonce), a hoodrat (Keyshia) or a fat ass with a voice (Kelly, KeKe, Aretha). As an African-American we are capable of so much more in terms of expression - our culture can be so rich and nuanced...I just wish the powers that be understood this or we simply just rejected all those who limit us to a few expressions. Then it would be clear for artists like Dawn. On a less serious note, if the DK diehards can't see that Dawn was the only reason to look at DK3 I feel sorry for them, LOL and I liked DK3 myself...
