Sometimes Empressive is better than Television.

poor Drea. Diddy ruined her self confidence.

Damn. This story behind Dirty Money is heartbreaking. They are far from ugly 🥺☹️

Dawn speaking about the colorism they have gone through her and kalina in people still deny Colorism has anything to do with success in the industry..there is your proof right there.

Diddy has a long history of doing his artists dirty. Most of his artists' careers are in the grave. They don't call it "the bad boy curse" for no reason. The only "artist" Diddy is invested in is himself..

DAWN has literally SET the tone for independent artists out here, her visuals and work ethic is unmatched. 😍

I Swear for the Longest I thought the girl from Dirty Money was the Singer Estelle 🤦‍♀️😂🤣

I LOVED Dirty Money, and it pisses me off that these two beautiful Black women were treated in such a disgusting way bc of people's colorism and racism! And the nerve of Jimmy Iovine to call ANYBODY ugly!

Diddy literally treats people like hens. He takes all the eggs he can from u for little to nothing in exchange and once u produce no eggs, he disposes of u😞

GIRL you came through EMPRESSIVE

Being pulled into a bathroom, pushed against a wall, and making out with Donald Jr. sounds more like a “Wattpad Imagines” meme than something that actually happened 😷😂

Andrea was always my favorite and now I see why. Such a sweet and pure spirit. Shoutout to discernment lol.

The Emmy's need to start giving awards to content creators bc girl....

This is better than the movies hands down

So she really thought, that man was going to leave his wife and his dad was going to allow that.🤷🏾‍♀️🤦‍♀️😂

why does diddy have to be in everyone one's music video, like a damn unwanted watermark!

Diddy played himself geting rid of Dirty Money. They were everything, super different, we needed that.

Karma is always on Diddy’s heels because of how bad he mistreats his artists.

Aubrey wants to act like the gangsta white girl until it's time to be the gangsta white girl 😒

Shannon and Aubrey going on the breakfast club and paint Dawn as this...... they basically sold her as an angry black woman. Def didnt sit well with me

Dawn has transformed herself into an incredible INDEPENDENT solo artist. all of her solo projects have been critically acclaimed and her material, performance, skills and writing ability are phenomenal

I feel like Diddy put Dawn in that Dirty Money group just to get his money back after buying her out of her contract. He's so dirty, he let her make a couple videos in the group and kicked her to curb too. Dawn talking about loyalty and paying back dues sounds ridiculous! Girl he made more than enough money off of you from Danity Kane alone. She didn't owe him anything especially after the way he played the group. He is the devil. 😂🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

DAWN TOOK ALMOST ALL THE HEAT FOR EVERY SINGLE THING! but sis is literally the only one that was most successful out of all them! TEAM DAWN‼️ truly loved her the most out of them all! truly hope she is doing her thing! blessings man!

Dawn and Kelina from Dirty Money we’re both gorgeous and great bodies. Jimmy Iovine is insane and blind for calling them ugly.

Diddy sounds like a very abusive boss.

I'm watching this, almost crying. Cause to me, Dirty Money was one of the flyest groups EVER! Two gorgeous black racially unambiguous women. Album had NO skips, which is rare. And then to sit here seeing how people treated these talents is just heartbreaking to me. I swear I do not get it. They was fly as F*ck!!

It was never gonna work because they didn't start out as friends. They started out competing against each other. There was no natural chemistry. It was manufactured "Girl power". They had a lot of really good songs though. 💕

D. Wood's way of handling everything after getting kicked out by Diddy tells me she's the most respectable one.

Aubrey lost her soul because of that thirst for Fame.

Aundrea kept leaving. People were always surprised. I'm surprised that they kept being surprised 🤔

I'm so glad Dawn followed her heart! She's a pioneer. She created her own lane! And her music is Damn Amazing!

The way Diddy treated these ladies is the way he treats every woman in his life, like garbage 🗑

Dirty Money was the shxt! Still a bop!!

Dawn Richard is one of the most underrated Artist EVER. (Not a debate).

I hope you all understand why Tupac never loved Puffs. That man was way ahead of his time. May his perfect soul rest in power.

Dawn is beautiful! Its sad people in the industry called her ugly.

I'm EMPRESSED with the research that was done for this documentary. Very well done and put together!

D. Woods never reunited with the group because she knew what time it was. She knew they wouldn't all be able to stay together like they did before they were broken up the first time. That's why she stayed making own her moves and didn't associate with Danity Kane.

colorism is real. As a dark skin black women that’s experienced discrimination in all aspects in my life due to my skin color, I can’t imagine how harsh it is in hollyweird & the industry. It’s a shame being an unambiguous dark skin women is literally frowned up. Dawn is beyond beautiful too! It’s sad that her career would have been different if she were light skin. Colorism is one of the reasons I go so hard about distinguishing mixed race from black folks. Allowing the likes of Kim kardashian to refer to & label her children as black instead of mixed, erases actual black folks, especially unambiguous black folk. If we continuously refer to mixed race people as black, it’s allowing companies, advertisements, commercials, etc to use mixed race people to represent actual black people, especially darkskin black folk. Eventually unambiguous black folks will be erased from movies, media, commercials, dolls, etc, all together. We won’t be able to see ourselves represented & actual images of ourselves no where...

I see why Andrea kept leaving the group. It was way too toxic! Hearing all of this drama is making me feel sick and drained. 😧😧

The truth is that Danity Kane was it. They have it. They have the natural chemistry, the star power, the performance quality, the talent. I wish Diddy and his team cared enough about their mental health to let them truly bond as a team and make them all feel like the stars they were because the truth is whatever drama they had going on ... we never knew. These girls were destined for greatness and greed squandered it. Dawn, Shannon and Aubrey did a great job with DK3 and their 2018/2019 tour. And I’m at least grateful for that.

I just heard some of Dawn's songs. She is such a talented artist.

Dawn is ahead of the game. She is beyond talented.

I told my kids to leave me alone so I could watch this two part series 😂😂😂

Dawn is the best and is critically acclaimed her albums are classic she is so underrated and deserves a Grammy

"Fans were surprised when Aundrea announced she wouldn't be apart of the group " Not really. 🙄

Last train to Paris was a dope album. Dawn's writing game is on point, her albums and stage performances are so creative

No wonder D. Woods didn't come back

Dirty Money was sooo dope! From the image/aesthetic, the musical talent...etc. they were fly indeed. It’s sad colorism is so prevalent.

Dirty Money was everything. I hate this coloristic world. And I never understood what people obsession with Aubrey was. No offense but her singing voice didn’t stick out to me

The fact that the Breakfast Club let Aubrey make those comments without checking her.... I would have been like "what do you mean by you ran out like the white girl you are? What does THAT mean?" And Aubrey not answering the question about them scheduling studio time behind Dawn's back but saying "I could have pressed charges." is some gaslighting. Seems like Aubrey and Diddy didn't get along because they're too much alike.

This was EVERYTHING!!! I watched Danity Kane’s journey from beginning to now. I appreciate the time and energy you put into this. I learned some stuff I had no idea happened. DK has so much talent. I hope to see a full reunion in the future. Thank you for this🙏🏾

So many people are saying "I would have fired Drea too, she weak." She was also broke. How many of y'all want to be humiliated on national tv by your boss regularly and not make money from your true passion which is music? How many of y'all would go to a job that doesn't respect or pay you?

Dawn is honestly a star.

why would people get surprised at Dawn getting work done when was constantly told she was ugly and had to bare with colourism at such abheigtened level?

Dawn Richard's talent is a well rounded beast! She is flawless as an artist and her craft is phenomenal!

Aubrey really messed up her face!! 🤦🏾‍♀️ Hollyweird can be ruthless! These record label are Deadly... literally 👹. Non but Devils in that place.

My girl Dawn was and still is the shit! She is immensely talented

Dawn pretty much confirmed that Awards are bought when she told the story about Puffs “Break Up Email”

Damn Aubrey just put it all out there girl, looking like a home wrecker.

I feel like Dawn is a typical ride or die...she will always be down for either Diddy, Dirty Money or Danity Kane, Aundrea just isn't cut up for the industry, she's a beautiful soul and the industry is vicious and the older she gets, she just can't handle it anymore. D Woods is that girl, she been gone and never looking back, and as for the DumBlonde, they just come off as mean girls. But I love them all to death still. I'll always support them no matter what! I grew up with them. Great documentary Empressive!

Dawn gets blamed for EVERYTHING yet She is the more successful one. Maybe she might be the one you want on your side

Diddy played everyone and he should be sued for not paying them women

You know Dawn is a singer when she talks! What a voice! 😍

Aubrey never answered Angela Yee’s question when she asked if she and Shannon were recording behind Dawn’s back which proves Dawn’s point.

Diddy does not need to relaunch making the band. He didnt do right by the first groups. He just wants money and the new group is going to end up broker than they were before. I was so shocked when I saw the group member's wife from Day 26 was a stripper because they were so broke.

My two cents: 1. Aundrea - Loved her and her vocals. She was the highlight of the group for me. I still can't get over the fact that she didn't give us at least a solo album :( 2. Aubrey - If she's not reuniting with them, she's doing everything she can to stay relevant. I loved her until I saw her on the Apprentice. For someone who allegedly was bullied in school, she sure did knew how to be mean and bully others! And it's ridiculous to hear her be all about women empowerment while she's transforming into a whole different person because of all the surgeries. Rant over, lol 3. Dawn - I like her first two projects and Bombs, but the rest was a bit too futuristic for me. I don't think her vocals can compare to Aundrea's. Like Shakira, Dawn has a specific voice that sometimes doesn't sound appealing to me at certain notes. 4. D Woods - She always rejected the reunion and is doing her independent music but I feel she's less of a known indie artist than Dawn? (I'm from Europe, so I can't get the best perspective of the US indie scene there) I think she needed the reunion the most, but okay. 5. Shannon - Love her! She's so humble, composed and kind. Always underrated and still sings the smallest parts.

So Aubrey was basically right, he fired three and one walked away leaving dawn as a solo artist. Call it a coincidence but it seems fishy

I love that d.woods said she didn’t know anything about the reunion and then in the same breather said they weren’t open to working with her schedule. Which is it?!

Yooooo, I literally just finished Part one and had already made peace with having to wait another week for part 2. Thank you Empressive! This is truly impressive!

The Diddy-Dirty Money album was criminally overlooked

Empressive, these documentaries are nothing short of impressive. I love how unbiased you are and how you approach retelling these unsung stories. You are talented! The editing is captivating, you let the stories speak for themselves, you are articulate, and I end the viewing without feeling like I’ve been coerced into the speaker’s point of view. You keep the facts and receipts coming! Applause to you!

Ever since this documentary I’ve been searching and listening to their music again lol

Aundrea kept quitting I don’t like that I understand family is important but don’t make a commitment to then bail every time when shit gets tough like that’s not cool she could of just stayed away all together

Aundrea kept quitting in the middle of things lol

I am shocked. I loved when I saw Dirty Money the first time. I am not from America, and I was surprised by their fierce, edgy, unique and powerful style. And the sound was levels ahead for that time (this is a former metal head speaking)... How can you not like it!?

I can now understand why Aundrea quit though. Aundrea has always struck me as the girl that just wanted to sing and put in the work, all the extra stuff she was never here for, and she reached a point in her life where she was just tired of it. She probably came to the conclusion that it shouldn't be this hard to sing.

Aubrey gives me the white girl that constantly pushes your buttons and antagonizes you until you snap and then she points the finger at you🙄

9:27 broke my heart. Aubrey was absolutely stunning the way she was. Every girl in that group was. It kills me when people feel they need to alter what God gave them FOR OTHER PEOPLE. You’re beautiful babe. ❤️

Aubrey always acting like the innocent, "....." girl☻

The fact that Aubrey said "I didn't press charges- I could've pressed charges and created alot more problems for her..." is *alarming*

Yup, Puff should teach a class called "how to not manage a group 101". He's evil!

Dawn is everything. Her artistry and creativity is unmatched.

Damn. I Didn’t Know That Dawn Was That Artistic! Damn! You Go Girl!!!

Aubrey look so bad with all that plastic surgery now. 😩

Shannon gives me Britney and Jamie Lynn Spears vibes..like she's their long lost sister lol

"We're not little girls anymore" looks at Aubrey and rolls eyes "we're all you know" struggles to say "mature women" the shade lmfao

DAWN has one of the best music careers even tho she’s independent

Ew she effed Trump Jr.? Gross

You can really tell Empressive puts a lot of work into these documentaries. I wonder how long one takes to make! 😩 amazing

You have to respect Diddy for working with Dawn and Kaleena. He knew they were talented

I still listen to Dawn. She's still dropping 🔥. Such a shame how these groups ended. Such talent. Thanks empressive ♥️

So Aubrey is happy sleeping with a married man and glorifying it smh she is crazy

I hope artists see this documentary and Learn from it! It wasn't just this group there's a looooonng list of artist that signed with Diddy, their careers all plundered. Listen.. You have to want better for yourself. He WILL NOT help your career. Career will be over. Diddy Wont care. The End!

Thats the only thing I respect about Diddy. He loved the dark chocolate sistahs. The music industry is the most racist industry on the planet. They hate dark skin black women . Its colorism on steroids. India aire talks about it too

Who else is listening to Dawn after this ?

Diddy, Puffy, Sean Combs or any other alias he goes by is the Bermuda Triange of the music biz. I really wish people would stop seeking deals from him. Rookie mistake.

Please do Day 26 next!!!! Because Baby Que was spilling all the financial tea during that last season of Making The Band 4 😂

The colorism thing is just so sad.Can you imagine if colorism was big in the '70s how many singers would have never gotten a chance 🤨

I do believe that dawn didnt want Dwoods back in the group but dawn is such a talent!!! Drea seemed like an honest person and couldnt handle the fakeness that was going on just for fame. Had they gotten Dwoods back on board they couldve did 1 good tour to get them all back on the map mai stream and they couldve went their separate way and succeeded. Im rooting for Dawn and Dwoods to pop off. Aubrey will find her way and so will shannon.
