I hate that haircut on her. She can at least get it curled right so it looks stacked. I don’t know, something seems just odd about it IMO. On another note, I normally love DK songs so I’ll probably like her album.
Thats whats up.! Dawn thats song is the biznesssssss…Out of the gurls, I always felt her passion for simply the music ..she had the hunger, Big ups Gurl!
Dawn good job babygirl! she has the best voice and did most of their arrangements in the group anyway……i love the songs emotion and i wish her much success with her solo album!
and she didn’t cut her hair, its just pulled up into a french braid if you cant tell….
dawns new song, trainwreck, YES TRAINWRECK for sure! fits her perfectly! she is not cute with that haircut either! diddy, if you let all the STARS go from Danity Kane, why did you hang on to this LOOSER!
Oh please…this is either hot or aite….anyone voting NOT is either hating or didn’t hear it. I took one look at Dawn’s ugly hair cut and strong jaw line and I wanted to hate…but the minute I listened to this beautiful and melodic track I was won over. Go head gurl…do yo thang
I like the song, it has a mellow and laid back feel, not sure if its because I’m a brandy fan though. This track sounds alot like something Brandy would do with all the layering of the background vocals. But good luck to Dawn her voice is really nice, I’ll support her.
I actually like the song if u really listen to the words its not that bad but her voice sounds so monotone thru out the whole thing. I hope this isnt something she plans on releasing as a single…
kinda reminds me of something brandy woulda done but i wont count her out..we all know she is a good songwriter so we will see…
This soooooooooooooooo sounds like Brandy. Um, what is Dawn’s style?? She seems like she doesn’t have that together. Though she is a very talented song writer. I thnk she might need more time before she drops a solo project.
Love Dawn.. I’m not going to call the folks haters, I think folks have their opinions and that’s fine…(their probably HoDay fans)…nevertheless the song is GREAT!! Dawn is a beautiful woman, not only in appearance but as a person. Go Dawn!
ummmmm OK! It’s ok i guess…. I don’t really like that she sounds the same through the whole song, monotonish… I don’t really care for Dawn either, she was never my favorite. I think Brandy could sing this waaaay better but it’s ok i think, I just wish there was something else….. or maybe i’m just used to her being in a group!! I heart DanityKane
And one more thing, you all know as well as I do that Dawn was and is a chicken, so no she didnt’ cut her hair, the chick took her weave out and got her ends clipped. That was the haircut.
i agree that its brandy influenced but not many people can pull off singing monotone and still having harmony in their voices. anybody heard of cassie?
Nice song. Great production and lyrics. It’s very Brandy like everyone said, but hey a lot of younger singers look up to her. I like “If I Could” better.
Nice song but we already have one Brandy, Dawn. If this is not biting Brandy’s sound (which is certainly her own) I dunno what is… sorry, bring us a new sound please.
Just looking at that horrid haircut made not even want to click on the link to hear this track. HENCE, after doing so, it actually sounds great!!!!! Can we say Brandy????
I HAVE TO GIVE DAWN HER “PROPS” THIS IS SO DANG BEAUTIFUL! AND AS FOR THE BRANDY SOUND, PLEASE! BRANDY IS NOT THE ONLY VOCALIST WHO HAS A RASPY VOICE IN ALTO. DAWN IS STRAIGHT TALENTED AND I HOPE SHE SUCCEEDS.
It would be better if Aundrea sang the second verse, then maybe D. Woods & Shannon could come in on the bridge! And Aubrey could do some breathy adlibs towards the end…That would make this song PERFECT!!!
New hairstyle is stunning on her. She should keep this style- long hair does nothing for her features. The song is nice too.
HOT,
Dawn’s all mine… any day, any time girl
I hate that haircut on her. She can at least get it curled right so it looks stacked. I don’t know, something seems just odd about it IMO. On another note, I normally love DK songs so I’ll probably like her album.
i love dawn, she’ seems down to earth but please rihanna’s haircut doesn’t look good on everybody!
Thats whats up.! Dawn thats song is the biznesssssss…Out of the gurls, I always felt her passion for simply the music ..she had the hunger, Big ups Gurl!
I love it very laid back
horrible. dawn sucks. shes the worst outta dk.
I love the song but she sounds a lot like Brandy. But better to sound like Brandy than Ashanti…so its all good.
Dawn good job babygirl! she has the best voice and did most of their arrangements in the group anyway……i love the songs emotion and i wish her much success with her solo album!
and she didn’t cut her hair, its just pulled up into a french braid if you cant tell….
Song……….. HOT
Dawn………..NOT
SUCKS! theirs only 1 brandy! next…
Only one word can describe this song….Boredom.
i don’t like dawn
dawns new song, trainwreck, YES TRAINWRECK for sure! fits her perfectly! she is not cute with that haircut either! diddy, if you let all the STARS go from Danity Kane, why did you hang on to this LOOSER!
The song is really nice… And I agree she does sound like Brandy in this song.
This just sounds like it was a Brandy song that she rejected…
Oh please…this is either hot or aite….anyone voting NOT is either hating or didn’t hear it. I took one look at Dawn’s ugly hair cut and strong jaw line and I wanted to hate…but the minute I listened to this beautiful and melodic track I was won over. Go head gurl…do yo thang

come correct !
the damn song is a trainwreck!
I didn’t even recognize her she looks totally different. Its too bad cause DK may have actually been something under someone else’s guidance.
It’s kinda catchy.
I like the song, it has a mellow and laid back feel, not sure if its because I’m a brandy fan though. This track sounds alot like something Brandy would do with all the layering of the background vocals. But good luck to Dawn her voice is really nice, I’ll support her.

I love this girl, she’s amazing! People need to stop hating her for the whole DK situation, it’s not her fault. I’m ready for Dawn’s music!
Yawn.
This soooooooooooooooo sounds like Brandy. Um, what is Dawn’s style?? She seems like she doesn’t have that together. Though she is a very talented song writer. I thnk she might need more time before she drops a solo project.
like the song, doesn’t sound finished though. i like the direction she is going in. very brandy-ish arranging and backgrounds.
Dawn – HOT
Song – Aight!
I know she’s a Brandy stan, but she needs to find her own style.
This song remind me soooo much of Brandy. This sound like something she would have done.
Love Dawn.. I’m not going to call the folks haters, I think folks have their opinions and that’s fine…(their probably HoDay fans)…nevertheless the song is GREAT!! Dawn is a beautiful woman, not only in appearance but as a person. Go Dawn!

Enough with the slow songs!
Definitely hot beat and vibe. She needed some more lyrics on it though. I hope the album has alot of variety so she aint boring.
its an alright song, nothing special.

Don’t get me wrong this song is great, but she kinda sounds like Brandy on this song
Nice song. Great production and lyrics. It’s very Brandy like everyone said, but hey a lot of younger singers look up to her. I like “If I Could” better.
Ok soooo kelli u are like 100% wrong bcuz the short cut is either a wig or a weave….we hairdressers know these things. (added by Mobile using Mippin)
booo don’t like it
It sounds like a song from Brandy….not original!
Like Dawn, but she needs to bring it harder than this! This is quite boring. She sounds a little like Kelly Rowland in this track too.
Her new haircut is not fly yall must be smoking!
Nice song but we already have one Brandy, Dawn. If this is not biting Brandy’s sound (which is certainly her own) I dunno what is… sorry, bring us a new sound please.
Its called trainwreck people
Im sorry but i had to comment a second time on this one… how DARE she try to imitate Brandy?! ok, i’m done.
Just looking at that horrid haircut made not even want to click on the link to hear this track. HENCE, after doing so, it actually sounds great!!!!! Can we say Brandy????
its some hatas on CL…dang!and im talkin about the people who just plain ol’ hatin for no reason,sayin she’s ugly?that has nothin to do with her song….
and IMO,yes MY OPINION,she sounds better than brandy-who is not that great of a singer,brandy is definitely overrated..
I HAVE TO GIVE DAWN HER “PROPS” THIS IS SO DANG BEAUTIFUL! AND AS FOR THE BRANDY SOUND, PLEASE! BRANDY IS NOT THE ONLY VOCALIST WHO HAS A RASPY VOICE IN ALTO. DAWN IS STRAIGHT TALENTED AND I HOPE SHE SUCCEEDS.
WACK!!

for a minute I thought I was listening to Brandy…I wonder if that was intentional?

Damn this sound so brandy-ish. I love it,Go girl
When are people gonna learn? You don’t come out with a slow song.
