OH MY GOD! I'm SCREAMING TOO! Wow I'm so happy for her because this here really tocuhed me. I would have never realised this. She would have never had this sound with Danity Kane. Wow. Just Wow.
Dawn is finally getting the recognition she deserves 😍Goldenheart was one of the best albums of 2013, and same goes for Redemption in 2016. Lazarus is such a gorgeous track
So proud of Dawn, and all that she has accomplished... from DK, to Dirty Money, to doing it on her own terms...you can't keep a good woman down! I had the opportunity to sing behind her and honestly she is one of the sweetest people ever & her voice😱, she deserves this moment and so much more. Go Dawn!
Dawn and these beautiful back up singers were giving Destiny Fullfilled vibes this was such a good performance! Dawn continues to evolve as an artist and I am here for this! ❤✨
Wow!! My only complaint is that I wanted more!! The level of artistry; the blend; the details of every body movement; to the band and the complete synergy between everybody was minimalistic, yet so masterful. I was just watching an interview of her speaking of her entire career journey from the beginning (Making The Band) days. Much respect!! 🙏🏾
DAWN is life. Those background dancers can SANG, and are beautiful! I love all of this flavor of black girl magic. I'm glad DAWN got a chance to showcase her talents on such a respected platform such as NRP, with NPR Music and their Tiny Desk Concert music series. DAWN did her thang.
Totally blown away by this! Dawn is amazing! This is hands down MY MOST FAVORITE TINY DESK PERFORMANCE EVER!. HER ENERGY IS EXTRA LOVEABLE! PURE CREATIVITY! I LOOK FORWARD TO CREATING WITH HER SOMEDAY!
I looked at the title and I was like Dawn? The only Dawn I know is from Danity Kane...and oh damn she brought it. The BGVs..choreography...originality...the pose and snap...THE LITTLE DRUMMER BOY IN THE BACK WHO DID NOT MISS ONE BEAT. Hot damn.
If this is your intro to DAWN here are some good tracks to vibe to. stand out tracks from her are “Billie jean” “automatic” “heaven” “wild n faith(music vid mashup of 2 of her songs “ my favs are “scripture” “300” “return of a queen” and “break of dawn” and “black crimes” the list goes on all day

Another awesome performance by creative artists. DAWN is fun to watch and mesmerizing to listen to. Thanks, Tiny Desk, for always featuring artists who bend the "rules."
Ma'am with the braids and purple highlights, you are a force and I couldn't stop watching you! I don't know your name, but you will be famous one day. 💙
Never heard of her before, I don't think, but she's SUPER DOPE!! LOVE her voice and swag. Great musicians and background singers but that alto is doing things to me. And that drummer, boy you better DO THAT!

When DAWN performed Vines (Interlude), I really felt the extra pauses between their vocalizations. And I've never seen a drum pad set like that before. I'd love to try something like that someday!
I absolutely love this series! DAWN sounds amazing, I love how you guys make it so easy finding out about "new" talent :) can you guys invite H.E.R. solo or maybe Moonchild or Kiana Lede? would love to see some of these guys in your office :)
Well damn I didnt even recognize that it was dawn from DK. Thats amazinv she has really come into here own and I love her sound. Looking forward to supporting the music and I def gota see her live.
Trying to figure out why my eyes are filling up with tears while listening to this first song: I think it is the glorious harmonies of these voices combined with words of the song that are somehow tragic & triumphant at the same time.
I first bumped into Dawn when I was in a Trombone Shorty mood one night. Dawn's track "L.A." came up in a playlist, and I've been a fan every since. Loving the chemistry in this performance, though! That's hard to fake.
I love Dawn, she has always been fire!!!! This is so beautiful, voices are so angelica. This performance is everything and more, YES DAWN!!!!! Sister is off the rails and I love IT!!!! They really slept on the RISE UP, but we did not sleep on THE RISE UP, Dawn!!!!!
They are so talented, beautiful vibe, I don't like the lyrics about how money is what is going to make you feel strong and like a king, money isn't real, and were all equal no kings and queens needed, the vibe of this music makes me feel so good! beautiful voices
Ya'll leave the boys alone. For all we know Dawn told them what to wear and I doubt she'd have brand members who don't vibe to her music... Great to see you pushing forward Dawn
How insane is it that Dawn has no manager and no booker? This music industry is so rigged and yet still she rises.
She cold calls FOR EVERYTHING SHE DOES! THATS MOTIVATION
"I didn't change, I became". COME ON, DAWN! KEEP GRINDING!!
This is honestly the most underrated Tiny Desk, so bomb
Bruh it took me a minute to realize that this is DAWN RICHARDS. DANITY KANE DAWN RICHARDS OMFG.... my inner 12 year old is screaming rn
Girl, yes! She found her voice and style and I’m here for it!
This was everything and more.
It’s Richard... no “s” and Dawn has BEEN doing this. Where you been?
Ree-shard
OH MY GOD! I'm SCREAMING TOO! Wow I'm so happy for her because this here really tocuhed me. I would have never realised this. She would have never had this sound with Danity Kane. Wow. Just Wow.
Whaaaaattttttt?THE!!!!!FFFFFFFFFF!!!!
I wish she would Re-record these records with these girls this is the best vocal harmony magic since Labelle ... lovely
Awwwwwwww you're the sweetest! @sepphora_kene is my IG/ FB/ UA-cam.. please check me out if you like! 🤗🤗🤗🤗

This is the most effective and sharp use of the Tiny Desk format in a long ass time. Love me some DAWN
Dawn is finally getting the recognition she deserves 😍Goldenheart was one of the best albums of 2013, and same goes for Redemption in 2016. Lazarus is such a gorgeous track

J Mélanie That's her? Damn she looks so different!
Always loved her so underrated
reginald hill she keeps messing with her face.
Latoya Johns yes indeed!
reginald hill It has been some years but yes that is her, I think she looks great!
Dawn and these beautiful back up singers were giving Destiny Fullfilled vibes this was such a good performance! Dawn continues to evolve as an artist and I am here for this! ❤✨
Facts!!!! U nailed it ! I'm like this sound like destiny child when they came back for the final rodeo sounding and looking A1
Oh those harmonies are killing me. 3 angelic voices up in there!
traskalle If you haven't yet, check out the Tyler The Creator one. Insane BGV's
And such a cool Prince reference in the first song :)
Harmonies on point like a freshly sharpened pencil
Nice
Severely underrated
Dawn is such a Queen, she just keeps getting better, wiser and clever. Can't wait to see what's coming

The tallest backup singer is someone to look out for, her voice is really good.
JustKenn i was thinking the same thing
Awwwwwwww you guys!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗 please follow: @sepphora_kene IG/FB/UA-cam
I was thinking the same thing about Sepphora Kene!!!
@@keiwas1637 ...thank you sooo much!!!!
Yes!!!
I love the background singer with the short hair!! Her deep voice! Dawn is just incredible
Can we just appreciate the drummer perfectly playing an electronic trap beat? it's not as easy as it looks!
I'm saying, I have been doing left hand lead for a few years now, but this is awesome.
I adore when she says “I didn’t change, I became”
Thank you Dawn for understanding the ones that others don’t understand!
Totally blown away by this! Dawn is amazing! This is hands down MY MOST FAVORITE TINY DESK PERFORMANCE EVER!. HER ENERGY IS EXTRA LOVEABLE! PURE CREATIVITY! I LOOK FORWARD TO CREATING WITH HER SOMEDAY!

Dawn is pretty much the most amazing artist the world will and ever see. I’m such a super fan of hers! #HeartNation !!!!

Three Black Pearls & two guys with Soul & Trap... Excellent Performance Ladies & Gentlemen!!!...
I smiled the whole way through this
This was such an experience seeing as this is my first time hearing about/seeing her. I love the vibe. The perfect introduction to her music.

Never heard of DAWN in solo mode until now! I'm now a fan. Great music! Great talent!
she is so amazing - we need another tiny desk , its been 5 years !
Dawn!! This summer's line up has been everything +NPRMusic !!
She can do no wrong!!! How are her vocals not on the charts and winning major awards...ugh society ... 😒

@@Aced84 thanks boo. Will check them out!
She's from danity Jane/making the band
I would add the song Bomb to the list, my personal favorite. The video and choreography is amazing as well.
Diddys making the band 3....danity Kane...she dated Que frm day 26.
This performance is filled with sass, attitude and raw emotion. I loved every minute of this powerful performance.
Now THAT is some significant talent! Alexander and Stewart are no shrinking violets either!
Solid, real performance of real music, solidly mixed once again. Nicely done.
AMAZING!!! The second song, Vines, is sooooo good! Wow, thanks Tiny Desk and Dawn
I am back again to listen to these heavenly vocals, i can't wait for her new album "Second Line" which comes out April 30th, 2021. :)
When DAWN performed Vines (Interlude), I really felt the extra pauses between their vocalizations. And I've never seen a drum pad set like that before. I'd love to try something like that someday!
Can we see this at the Grammys or award show !!! Thank you tiny desk
Fire, NPR still blessing us with Dem good ass artists

I am SO proud of Dawn and how far she has come! Such an incredible talent. The music is great and the backing vocals are AMAZING too!!!
Can we talk about her background singers standing beside with mic at full volume and you can still hear Dawn. Yes for all 3 vocals.

Trying to figure out why my eyes are filling up with tears while listening to this first song: I think it is the glorious harmonies of these voices combined with words of the song that are somehow tragic & triumphant at the same time.

I first bumped into Dawn when I was in a Trombone Shorty mood one night. Dawn's track "L.A." came up in a playlist, and I've been a fan every since. Loving the chemistry in this performance, though! That's hard to fake.
yo so you definitely gotta get into that blackheart album!!!
I love Dawn, she has always been fire!!!! This is so beautiful, voices are so angelica. This performance is everything and more, YES DAWN!!!!! Sister is off the rails and I love IT!!!! They really slept on the RISE UP, but we did not sleep on THE RISE UP, Dawn!!!!!

Ya'll leave the boys alone. For all we know Dawn told them what to wear and I doubt she'd have brand members who don't vibe to her music... Great to see you pushing forward Dawn
She has always been the best in the girl group she got put in love her
Vines Interlude was one of the best Interludes I've heard on NPR... I can't even listen to the original it's so good
Dawn is underestimated. I think she has a unique style, and is creatively gifted. She never disappoints!
