Dawn, thank you for sharing your story. Thank you for taking stand. Sometimes it is difficult in doing so. Especially in the world that we live in. God will turn your pain into passion. Trust Him to guide you and He will. He will guide you where you never thought to go. You are also a GORGEOUS strong victorious woman. Keep on shining God’s love and light💛. We love, appreciate and celebrate you💛. I pray that God will bless you double fold for the trouble. And I pray that God restores regarding Envogue💛. We love you all💛. You are a huge part of music history which is a great accomplishment, and you still have it💛. Keep going. Trust God💛. Sending love with lots of hugs💛.
Dawn was always the star of En Vogue and Lucy Pearl. They are all pretty, but Dawn had mad swag. We always wanted to see what clothing outfits she was wearing, what type of jewelry she sported, how she was wearing her hair, and how she walked, danced, and spoke. She always towed the line between being highly confident and flat out arrogant...but that's what we want from *STARS* because we elevate them. She has always been a favorite of mine and I'm glad she speaking out and setting the record straight. And I hope like hell she starts touring again--Solo.
I think that all 4 women of Envogue were stunning and talented. One of the things that I loved about them was how vocally they all held their own. Any one of 5hem could have sang lead. It was sad when the original group parted ways..I do however, understand the bad contract and money issue, creative differences though. This happens often with groups.
@@719kai719 There is no doubt they were all stunning and talented. But there is a reason that Michael Jackson stood out from the Jackson 5, or Beyonce from Destiny's Child, or Paul McCarthy from the Beatles. Dawn was destined to be the breakaway star. Unfortunately, her weakness at the time was trusting people in an industry filled with vampires and snakes.
She is beautiful and has a great voice honestly I love her voice I never knew what happened to her I wish her the best she was one of my favorite members I am glad she is speaking out I hate that she has been quiet so long I can’t believe they didn’t get paid right omg!! They should have fought no matter what! I wish her the very best in life
I don't know. Every time I look at this guy Raphael Saadiq , I get a bad feeling. Something doesn't ring true about him. And yet, I've never approached him. Dawn, what if you put videos online? You're really talented.Today, many artists do this and manage to earn a living. It's better than looking for reliable people in this environment. After the scandals with Diddy, Jay-Z & Co, I understand better why Britney Spears, Bieber, Rhianna... don't want to sing anymore.
If you are not business savvy it has been proven over and over managers/producers will take advantage of you. They took advantage of her…sad. And I was vibing w Dawn. With the right management, she could still be big. 🙏🏼
Dawn in nearly 60 years old.. and she has direct access to her audience via social media.. she doesn't need a deal.. she just needs to go to work and stop blaming everybody else for everything. It's up to her to capitalize on her fame/popularity.. but how many times have you ever seen Dawn Robinson listed as a performer on a tour or even for a single show? She does not have the work ethic to make it independently. A lot of people have talent.. talent is just one of the ingredients you need to be successful. If she had any new music folks would buy it.. if she was performing live with her own band.. folks would go to her shows.. so why she not doing any of that?
If I was in the group, wasn’t getting paid, and lost my house to foreclosure, I really wouldn’t have cared that much about being replaced by another singer. Yes, it was underhanded the way it was done, but I’d be thinking the new singer is probably going to go down that same road.
This story is nothing new I've seen heard all this before this is clipbait dawn Robison is not homeless a picture of her literally on the streets was painted but that ain't the case she's doing fine she may not be rich but she's not on the streets shame you on you guys
Man ! I was in that music field . That is some cut throat Sh/# . When it comes to money , every man and woman for them selves. There is no honor or love out there in that hell hole.
I knew it coukd not have been all on her from all of the stories i have heard from different artists. They also call here difficult like all orher black women who stand up for themselves.
I Love Your Voice! You Were The Voice Of Lucy And Envouge. My Favorit is "Don't Mess Wit My Man" Soon as You Left Neither G Was The Same. Please Stop Messing Up The Chemistry oh Harmony's😀.
Aaah that hurts my heart 😢 She’s so talented and it hurts to hear this
Four women earning two cents per album is a crime

I still have the Lucy Pearl cd and it’s still 🔥 Raphael’s greed ruined Tony Toni Tone also. He left one of the original members high, dry and broke
They rocked OMG
I commend you Dawn...no harm, no foul...the industry is a dog eat dog world...THEY clearly took advantage.❤❤❤❤
But you know what those MFS will have their day, for Raphael to do her like that.

Just Be careful Dawn. Don’t go into any deals wo the right representation
Dawn in nearly 60 years old.. and she has direct access to her audience via social media.. she doesn't need a deal.. she just needs to go to work and stop blaming everybody else for everything. It's up to her to capitalize on her fame/popularity.. but how many times have you ever seen Dawn Robinson listed as a performer on a tour or even for a single show?

If she had any new music folks would buy it.. if she was performing live with her own band.. folks would go to her shows.. so why she not doing any of that?
This is a story of why you need to have a true business partner that is not into fame. Very hard people to find.

Lucifer Saadiq🎯
Raphael is a mess! Chiiiiile
I heard he wasn't a nice person at all. I know a couple people that met him before
He is SO FAKE AF
A STAR, I don’t even know who JOY is nor have I ever seen her face!! Talking about star!!
They used my girl for the talent..
If I was in the group, wasn’t getting paid, and lost my house to foreclosure, I really wouldn’t have cared that much about being replaced by another singer. Yes, it was underhanded the way it was done, but I’d be thinking the new singer is probably going to go down that same road.
TheGodsAre Not Happy AboutIT!😃. Dont Mess With The Foundation. Keep it Original Pleasde
He won't mess with joi husband. Sad greed money do
When will there ever be unity???
She should have stayed with EnVogue
12:26 - FACTS 💯
She should’ve been smart enough to get a lawyer for the second contract. You can’t trust friends when it comes to money
This story has been told 20x times. Good review, though.
I'm not sure how Dawn can be worth $5 million if she is really the victim she paints herself to be.
She not telling the whole story. Don't get it twisted.
Why the hell did Tony toni break up?
This story is nothing new I've seen heard all this before this is clipbait dawn Robison is not homeless a picture of her literally on the streets was painted but that ain't the case she's doing fine she may not be rich but she's not on the streets shame you on you guys
en Vogue, do you know you are going to always be my girls I always got love for you all H-Town girls
Man ! I was in that music field . That is some cut throat Sh/# . When it comes to money , every man and woman for them selves. There is no honor or love out there in that hell hole.
All her fault business is business. Have lawyers read all your contracts. That’s it that’s all
I knew it coukd not have been all on her from all of the stories i have heard from different artists. They also call here difficult like all orher black women who stand up for themselves.
She was my dream girl back then. Sad
I Love Your Voice! You Were The Voice Of Lucy And Envouge. My Favorit is "Don't Mess Wit My Man" Soon as You Left Neither G Was The Same. Please Stop Messing Up The Chemistry oh Harmony's😀.
