Rap-Up.com || Single Cover: Dawn Richard

Dawn Richard debuts the ominous cover art for her holiday single “December Sky,” available December 1 at digital retailers. Written by the Dirty Money singer and co-produced by Druski, the song is about bringing together loved ones during the holidays—no matter how far apart they may be.

“A lot of people won’t be able to see their loved ones this Christmas,” explains the former Danity Kane member. “Whether they are serving in Iraq/Iran, in the industry, or working a 9 to 5, the truth is a lot of us aren’t able to make it home for the holidays. So this record is for them and anyone else missing their love—the sky and stars are a gift for us both because no matter how far apart we are, we are under the same sky.”

Listen to a preview of the song exclusively on Rap-Up TV and hit the jump for a new black-and-white promo photo.

WOW I am truly amazed at Dawn’s growth and her talent. I really love Dawn and I hope to meet her one day. Just watching her, she is so inspirational and is such a caring individual. She’s busy making her album, but when she’s free she takes time to reply to people on twitter and follow people and it really makes people’s day. Many times, we as people go through so much that something small like Dawn following or talking so someone on twitter can mean the world. I wish Dawn the best and I will be front row at her shows when she releases Golden Heart. Dawn is are an inspiration to many and a blessing to the world. I fell in love with music again ;-)

I agree with all these comments. Dawn is such a go-getter and it really shows. I am predicting that when she releases her debut album she will be at the top of the game.

SMH. I’ve been a fan since day 1. And this girl has gone from the ground up!! She is just REEEAACCHIIINGGG for the stars!!! She won’t stop! And that’s so inspirational. I’m very proud…. you rarely get to see an artist’s journey. We always just see them “make it” overnight so I’m honored! Keep it up Dawn!!! Huge fan forever, here!

Dawn, you are one of the most hard working people in the industry. You are amazing and talented. I do not compare you to no other artist because you are doing your neon thing. I wish you and your family the best. If love is still in the air with Que go for it?

I’m a huge fan of Dawn’s..She is so talented and I love her music..However, I”m a little disappointed with her choice of song that she decided to put on itunes..Dawn has put out music for free that sounds better than this..I feel she should have came with some heat..Like she did on her mixtape and she would have been #1 or close to #1 on itunes! :)
