We had the opportunity to stop for a second and interview Dawn Richard (singer-songwriter.)   You guys remember her from Making The Band 3 and she was also an artist with Bad Boy Records.

Now Dawn has released a new album and her look is “very serious!”  She can (now) be seen wearing the latest couture, gracing magazine covers, or blowing up on social networking site such as Instagram.  I was eager to discuss with Dawn her singer career, style, and musical inspirations.
