Danity Kane Steals the Show...Together or Not!


Tonight's episode of Making The Band: The Final Chapter featured Day 26, Donnie, Diddy, and no one other than Danity Kane. Although Danity Kane only consisted of Aubrey, D. Woods, Dawn, and Shannon on the show, they still managed to steal the show even without Aundrea.

During the show Day 26 performed 3 time,s to promote their sophomore album which debuted at number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week. As well as Donnie Klang who performed a song off his album entitled "Pick It Up." It was a tad bit funny to hear Aubrey discredit Dawn, and speak over her after Dawn stated that everyone supported Aubrey's stint on Broadway. Aubrey backfired and said it was only D. Woods who supported her! Ouch!

Shannon said she spoke to Aundrea and her reasons for not coming were basically that she was the emotional one of the group, and was taking time to be with her family. Pretty much that she didn't want or need to deal with the expect Diddy BS, is what I'm thinking! I truly hope Aundrea finds a home at a great label who will support her solo career, because I could seriously see her being an easy well liked solo artist.

What the future holds...

As for Diddy's sacred little Dawn, she is supposed to be joining Diddy as one of his female band mates on his Last Train To Paris album/phase he's going through currently. Pretty much meaning he will give Dawn extra air time for exposure on his Making His Band show-pretty slick huh, ugh I think not. This pretty much is to boost Dawn's appeal for her Bad Boy solo debut album, which Diddy himself said was coming soon. I do not see this being a big album, and I still cannot dig Dawn's voice for an entire album, so she definitely better bring it, especially to make Pop fans enjoy her music. Dawn was rocking the latest, "I'm trying to be a major solo artist hairdo" so I'm gonna lose the weave and have a short-do, infamously made by Rihanna. Keri Hilson, has done the same to her hair!

D. Woods, seemed to appear on the show basically for self promotion reasons. Especially since after not showing up on the last finale which she was asked to appear on. Any who she is said to have heard from various labels who are interested in singing her, as well as working on her solo debut album. She made it seem as if she was already in pretty good hands, so the future will only tell how that ends up going for her. Previous rumors stated she was involved with another girl group

Sweet Miss Shannon, seemed to come into her own, on tonight's show, where she actually seemed to speak up, and tell how she saw things. Very good to see Shannon almost become a new person tonight! Not to mention of all of the girls she looked the best by a mile. She stated that she was getting involved with some web site, and said who knows, you may see her becoming/going Country for a solo debut album. Probably the best sure route for her, but I would definitely like to see Shannon become a Pop artist, over Country. If she had the right promo team, she could be something in the Pop world, various people have stated she was the best dancer in Danity Kane.

Last but definitely not least we heard from the fiery little diva in the making, Aubrey. Oh god I love me some Aubrey! She knows exactly how to bring the attention onto herself, which is what you need to make yourself a bigger star, than you currently are. Her future solo endeavors include going back to Broadway for another musical, as well as focusing on Fall 2009 reality TV show, which will probably be about her day to day life and her journey to make her solo debut album. Something to look forward for, but she better hope it doesn't get canceled cause that would not be a good look in any way!

As a whole...

Danity Kane seems to be in the same mind set, and Diddy pretty much agreed with them. The four seemed pretty open for a Danity Kane reunion, except the thing was, nobody wanted it to be right now! They all are to concentrated on their solo projects to commit to a Danity Kane album. So that goes for the internet hoax about their third studio album, From The Ashes, which they were supposedly said to be in the studio recording. Diddy even went to say on the show in front of all four of five members that there would not be another Danity Kane, unless it was the original 5 members. Though ironically he went on to say he will create another superstar female group, who will hopefully respect the opportunity more and learn how to deal with things that come along with groups, although saying , not that these ladies (Danity Kane ) didn't... Kinda odd, but yeah-it's Diddy!

The way I see it, is if Danity Kane doesn't reunite within a year, maybe two years max, who is really going to be checking for them! They will becoming part of the past, another group to be and go in the mid 2000s. I did enjoy their music as a group, but if they don't get their act together collectively soon, IMO there will be no need for a DK reunion, as sad as that may sound!

Diddy Is and Was the Cause...Danity Kane No More ?


So on tonight's part 1 of the season finale of Making The Band 4, Diddy started the show out by getting straight to the point that everybody, well more than 50% of whats left of Making The Band's viewers wanted to know.

HE quickly stated than he was going to release all members of Danity Kane from their contracts except Dawn. Yes he did release Aundrea from her contract, which in my opinion was a really messed up thing to do. Aundrea waited all along this season's filming of Making The Band, to find out if Danity Kane would be getting revamped in any sort of way possible, and Diddy flat out drops her! I mean I think he could have at least gave her a 1 or 2 album contract.

In the end Diddy certainly got his wish, since he is only left with the only member of Danity Kane, who he truly wanted from the git go: Dawn Richard! It's pretty clear to see that if DK doesn't get back together that Diddy will release an album from Dawn on Bad Boy. He already supposedly has Dawn writing music for Cassie (epic fail, including her half shaved head and all) so it only seems legit for him to give her the solo deal that's been speculated for years now.

The only shocking event left to see is next weeks part 2 of the finale, where Danity Kane is said to possibly be in whole (5 members) on stage with Diddy. Though I really do not see this going very far, Diddy is bluntly rude with Aubrey, even if she slightly changed he wouldn't like her vibe. Pretty sure I'm not the only one who see's that too. I just thought it was funny in which the order of their solo pictures that they showed--Anybody else notice it was in the order of who Diddy is in good terms with most currently: Dawn....Aundrea...Shannon...D. Woods...Aubrey!

I also was not feeling Dawn's over the top happy, I must move on, attitude during her photo shoot on tonight's show, very arrogant and overly cocky. Again I do not think she will ever be a huge solo star-time will tell.

Danity Future : As I Currently See It!


The way I see it coming along as of now is that this season of Making The Band we will get to see Danity Kane come together as a trio, being Dawn-Aundrea-Shannon, and I think they may make music together. Not an album, but I do see them releasing a single or two, so Diddy can test the waters to see if people still are vibing Danity Kane.

Then I see the following season finding a way to reach out to D. Woods and maybe Aubrey, but def. D. Woods. Then I see the four of them (all minus Aubrey) them doing sort of another test trial by releasing a single digitally. And if it does well enough, creating and releasing an album.

Then for the next season I see them making the entire group reunion, and inviting Aubrey back to be a part of Danity Kane. Giving her a chance to do her own thing (which some may consider wild) and then have her see what she'll miss without Danity Kane. But in the end I do think see (as of now) all 5 girls of DK getting back together and releasing an album again together. It'll be called 'Danity Reunited,' or something like that.

IMM [In my mind] it isn't smart for Diddy to think about giving Dawn a solo career this early in the game. He needs to establish her group b4 thinking solo terms and contracts. All I know is I think Danity Kane no matter how many members are in it, 3,4,5 (don't know about 2) they should release new music, they really were a successful group. Is it a publicity stunt, ehhh, maybe, probably is. But they did make music as a 5-some well! As of now, I guess DK will remain damaged!

Danity Drama: 'Don' Through Day | Making The Band 4 Season 4


So, once again Making The Band/Diddy and MTV are really keeping every one's attention on Danity Kane, Day 26, and Donnie Klang with Season 4 of Making The Band(MTB).

Still the most interesting artist/group on the show has got to be Danity Kane by far. Not to mention they seem like the group who has or should I say had the most potential. With two number 1 albums and two Top 10 Hot 100 singles (YES, they should have more with two albums, but that's the Bad Boy Way-sell what matters, albums not singles) under their belt it all seems to becoming to an end for one of the 00's most promising new female groups. Do they ever last? There was Destiny's Child, 702, 3LW, and Dream (fellow Bad Boy group) just to name a few!

With Aubrey posing for February/march 09's issue of Playboy, D. Woods working with her group, Shannon's place in the group unknown (rumors her her leaving because of Diddy drama, not being in the trailer, and not wanting another season), only leaves for two certain members left. Aundrea who has told Diddy she wasn't happy with the group previously, and then there is what many believe Diddy is hoping to make his next check with (as a solo act), Dawn. Hmmm, don't think that solo career would last, let alone if it semi-worked!

Day 26, attempts to create more buzz with their dramatic fights in the preview as they prep their 2nd album (YES, already that's what I'm thinking) since their first failed to create any major buzz single wise. As for them, they can only hope that they can pull it together-As O-Town, Da Band, and Danity Kane have all proved to not stand the test of time.

As for Donnie Klang, he is really put in a bad position as Diddy puts all of his thoughts and ides toward the two groups, and little for Donnie. Doesn't he know it's harder to established fan base for a single artist rather a group? Not to say that he receives little to no air time on Making The Band. Personally he deserves another chance, especially since Diddy (You are not a cool rapper anymore, if you ever were!) corrupted his debut, by being the featured guest on his debut single ("Take You There")! "Dr. Love," could really become a hit for him.

Clearly with all of the issues- Staged or not bring on the next season of MTB4 Season4!
Let's just hope Diddy didn't stage the Danity Drama, because that will lost fans of theirs for sure, on the account of him!
