      Love Dawn but this shows how peeps straight hate on Beyonce (can we say Who RTW?). She’s constantly compared and called a copycat when no one else is SMFH.

      The song is alright. @ “Just Want my comment at the top”, I totally agree with you. As soon as I started to play the video Beyonce’s “Run the World (Girls) video came to my head. But Beyonce only gets the most hate because she is the one running things right now.

      I mean it was obvious who you were referring to was it not, anyone could of guessed that so point not proven love case of the ex and thats my point no one is stealing anything from anybody ideas bounce back and forth so to say that its not a “stolen concept” is just stupid evrything has just about been done before stop accusing people of stealing ideas and concepts, Dawn’s video is really good but there was no need to bring as you put it She whose name shall not be mentioned in it

      The video was creative. She did steal some techniques from you know who. I hope that artist doesn’t get mad. Other than that it was a nice video.

    I am not of fan of this video and don’t understand the words to the song. I think she tried to have it like Beyonce’s video (Who runs the world) in my opinion. I am happy she has come into her own and wish her all success.

    I love the song… wish I could understand the beginning verse but the beat drowns it out

    I almost got a sense of Beyonce in the video BUT in the song she does continuously say something in regards to the SAHARA DESERT hence the African theme….

    I love it when she dance man…. people forget Dawn was a dancer and a professional cheerleader..

    I LOVE DAWN

    Woo!

    This video is great It’s amazing the difference between talent and non talent. Talent does not need all the production and bells and whistles. Dawn is just really talented and she has sold me I gotta go get her EP just to support.

    Maybe Its Just Me

    Girls in a sandy desert doing African-inspired dancing in leotards and boots? Who Runs This Mutha…? Sorry but the video lacks in originality.

    I don’t know Dawn personally, but from seeing her on MTB I believe she has far more talent & creatvity than this video and song.

    And quite frankly as a few others said, I can’t understand what the **** she’s saying outside of the two-line “Bombs-Away” chorus. I at least think that’s what she’s saying.

    I think Dawn’s talent works best in a group, not as a solo artist. Personalities may have clashed in Danity Kane, but it was a good mesh of talent/vocals/choreography.

    Also, although, I think many people today have a jacked-up perception of good music…I really don’t think all of the positive comments here & on Twitter are 100% genuine. I think her people, friends & family are posting “we love it” comments from different IP addresses on the blogs. Because I’m sorry this song is some straight-up bullshit. I love Dawn, but I’m disappointed…

    I absolutely love the video and the choreography was wonderful. Dawn is a talented girl and I look forward to hearing her music especially her ballads. The song is okay but I know that she has other great songs on her EP.

    She got white boots on in the desert, dressed in African attire? What is she saying….she needs to just be a song writer, she doesn’t have the “it’ factor. She sorta looks like a female Diddy in a bad dress.

      I noticed I put the note ‘#GODAWN’ in previous post GODAWN = GOD AWN= “Help from God”…valid. Dawn, your stars are aligning right now! Be prepared to work and watch how you will be blessed in the days, months, and years to come!

    Dawn is on her way! And I’m loving it. Imagine if WHEN she blows the Hell Up ???? The girl would be a serious beast with the right backing that these untalented hoes in the music biz get!

    I’m rooting for her and I will be supporting! Props to CL for always giving Dawn her props…I see yall!

    Things can never just be, people always have to compare someone or something to another for them to maintain order. Dawn has her own way of doing things just as Beyonce has her own. The two beats are totally different as such is the choreography. People see desert and dirt and think “oh she’s trying to be like…..”. If that’s the case then ridicule Usher, Chris Brown, even Ne-yo for that matter because they took from Michael Jackson and even HE took from James Brown. So that right there just goes to show that everything is recycled anyway. No matter how much a new spin may be put on it, it’s still been used and will continue to be, so on that note whoop dee do! I think Dawn’s choreography was hella good, although, I was only able to understand the first 2 lines and the “Bombs Away”, that’s alright, it makes a good dance routine song. get it Dawn!!!!!!!
