Rap-Up.com || Rap-Up TV: Dawn Richard Previews Christmas Song ‘December Sky’

Dawn Richard has given her fans plenty of free music throughout the year with her mixtape A Tell Tale Heart and records like “SMFU (Save Me From U),” and now the Dirty Money diva gets in the Christmas spirit with her first solo iTunes release “December Sky.”

Produced by Druski, the chilling, yet heartwarming single will be available for download at the digital retailer on December 1. She previewed the song exclusively for her Hearts on Rap-Up TV.

“I’m not really going to be able to see my love during Christmas and I think a lot of people can relate to that,” explained the New Orleans native, who is prepping her solo debut GoldenHeart. “I wanted to do something that was real with that. So we came up with an idea: why is it always about material [things] when we share the same sky? When we look outside and we see the moon and stars, that’s a gift for us.”
