Since erupting on the scene as part of Danity Kane, Dawn Richard has not looked back.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)The talented songstress parted ways with the popular quintuple back in 2008, yet didn’t allow the very public disbanding to deter her quest for stardom. Indeed, the immediate aftermath saw her regroup (quite literally), becoming a shining force in experimental trio Diddy-Dirty Money.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)Now back on her singular hustle, the singer-songwriter chatted it up with That Grape Juice about her stint in both groups, her current label predicament, debut solo LP, and much more. Check it out above!

Have Several Seats
OOOO Lord!
The shade “Dawn Richards”……O_O
highly anticipating anything Dawn and Dirty Money related
Omg I can’t wait til her album comes out cuz her mixtape was Amazing!
She gave up on trying to imitate Brandy? SHE RATHER!!!!
Now she snatched up Fantasia’s flow? Peep it…
She will be the MOST sucessful Danity Kane member at the end of the day – PERIOD
Yasss! Dawn shits on the other D.K girls! she is the best. I am very excited for Golden Heart (and the other two) All DAWN RICHARD HATERS HAVE SEVERAL SEATS YALL AINT READY!!!
WHY YALL HATING? LET HER DO WHAT SHE LOVES TO DO YALL HATERS FOR NOTHING
I’ll never understand why folks don’t like Dawn besides the same shallow reasoning – her look & the Danity Kane situation. She’s different & refreshing!! She can sing, dance & write. I downloaded her mixtape & I was pleasantly shocked O_O I was bumping that s*** non-stop for months lol! I like her & I’m honesty interested to see where she’s going next!!
I like Dawn. I hope her ‘solo project’ does well. I might buy it. Maybe. I really don’t know. (no shade)
I hope she becomes a legend like I know she can be.
I would be mad if Dawn Richard did not have the HATERS because there is so much to hate about her right now. She is super talented. Yea Dawn!!!!!!
I used to love Dawn, but ive lost intrest over the years
she should stick with DDM
I LUV ME SOME DAWN.
I can see Diddy signing her. Knowing Diddy he might try to hype up her album since Ciara is coming back out with a new album. I’m not trying to say it in a bad way, but it would be nice to have something new and exciting in 2012. Dawn vs Ciara and Brany vs Kelly Rowland type of thing. I think it’s time for something new and spicy in a fun way:)
IF YOU HONESTLY THINK CIARA IS TOUCH DAWN RICHARDS SWAG YOU’RE SIPPIN ON SOME CRAZY S***
& P.S. IT WONT BE A COMPETITION DAWN & BRANDY HAVE THEIR OWN LANES….
I cant hear the interview, there is no sound when she talks its just static.
I love her! Please report on when the second LP will be released!
I love Dawn!!!!! i hope the best for her. But Dawn, please don’t rock that hair style again.
I love Dawn and I want to see all of the Danity Kane girls make it. Even though it looks like Dawn and Aubrey are doing ok, I believe they were at their best in DK. They had an open lane to the top, there are no other girl groups out. *sign* I miss DK, Day26, & Donnie. F*** Diddy >:(
Who is this?
@luvdawn if you put your finger over her bun it look like shes bald lol.
Dawn is the s***! Point BlanK Period!
FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @HONEY_DIP11 I FOLLOW BACK!
Danity Kane flop
Dirty Money Flop
Dawn FLOP
I wonder what’s going on with Day 26 these days. Are they still together? Are they still signed? Somebody give me an update because they are the ones I was checking for. As for Dawn; I’m glad she’s still doing her thing. She was Danity Kane’s golden girl indeed, and she certainly has what it takes to make it. I wish her all the best.
I love dawn! I hope she makes it far….i am rooting for her
I like Dawn and am rooting for her. She is a very talented girl!

DAWN IS A FLOP!!!!!!!!!!!! T***** DAWN HAVE A SEAT BY THE DUMPSTER WITH YOU CAREER.
Her album should be good but I would prefer another Diddy Dirty Money album.
Dawn shouldn’t be compared to Ciara you tryna insult Ciara? Jeez is that b**** serious Ciara has swag for does and Dawn who is looking like B-side beyonve these days! Ciara didn’t make “Pretty girl swag” for nothing Girl bye
Dear Dawn,
Keep hustlin’ hard, you’re my b****, you rock !!!
She has a very creative mind and has a great tone.
I’d personally love her to work with Brandy and do co-writing together with Songwriter TC.
I hope she gets her album out as she has a cool sound and delivery.
Miss DK though.
I think Dawn has all the qualities to be a successful solo artist, but I think the most important quality of them all is her strong work ethic. I remember watching “Making The Band” when she was in DK and I could tell she was the one that wanted it the most. While the other girls were always on some petty rant, Dawn was focused and kept pushing forward. More power to her and I hope it all pans out for her. Whenever her debut album drops, please believe I’ll pick up a copy!!!
Yall bloggers take s*** a little too personal for me. It’s not about competition, understand the inside parts of the music industry before yall make a comment!
@LoveOnTop,@Joe @Robier SIT YALL ASSES DOWN!! Dawn is just getting started 🙂
Yay I been waiting for this for a while, I’m so excited for Dawn! Say what you want this chick is goin places. She gives you something different, something fresh. I can’t wait to hear what this album sounds like #GoldenHeart

@Independent Thinker
Yeah they are still a group, but without Que. They dropped Bad Boy and are solely with Atlantic Records now.
They have a new buzz single:
