Dawn Richard, of the group Danity Kane, sat down with Essence Magazine to discuss the groups’ lost of members Aubrey O’Day and D. Woods, talk of a solo career and the future of DK.
The Future of Danity Kane
“We talked about it, and there’s a fear we have of losing our fan base. But at the end of the day, Diddy made his choice to let us decide, and we would like to continue with the name and the group,” Richard told Essence magazine. “This is our lives, and you can’t just say no to your dreams. I love working with the group. However, it’s so hard to say what will happen. I would prefer that the original group members remain. It’s hard enough for fans to follow as is.”
On Whether She is Pursuing a Solo Career “It’s so interesting how the media chooses to interpret or report things. I have never said that I was pursuing a solo deal. I told someone that I have waited so long for my dream, and singing is my dream and has been for so long. I have done nothing on the side as far as solo projects. I’m not sidestepping.”……”Everyone should ask Puff if that’s what he has in line for me,” she suggested. “If he does, then I’m honored and I will work hard, as I’ve always done. Who knows what can happen, because Puff changes his mind every five seconds. I’m going to work hard. I’m going to be the same person I was in the beginning.”
On Feeling Unsupported by Group Members “I have totally been supportive of the group, that’s my priority,” she said. “We had shows where Aubrey didn’t show up, and we had her back and no one wrote about it or said anything.
