Dawn Robinson has sung and performed her way ahead of the pack. She has managed to stand out from every project she has touched including the massive entertainment dynasty “En Vogue”, the all-star Grammy nominated line up of Lucy Pearl, the hip hop venture “The Firm” on their first single Firm Biz featuring Nas, Foxy Brown, & AZ, as well as several platinum & multi platinum soundtrack contributions from Eddie Murphy’s “LIFE” to his equally impressive blockbuster “Dr. Doolittle”. Always looking to explore music’s vast wilderness of creativity, Dawn keeps herself on the lookout for opportunities to branch out & present her own feisty rebellious energy to the world. Much like the great Tina Turner, she knows where the action is and has taken control of her star power to continue her journey towards legendary status. What does a future Rock & Roll Hall of Famer look like? Just check out Dawn Robinson. Growing up with musical influences such as The Beatles, Sly and the Family Stone, The Carpenters, Janis Joplin, Earth Wind & Fire and many others, Dawn Robinson is musically well rounded. In 1989 Dawn auditioned for what would become one of the greatest female R&B groups in the history of music. As a matter of fact, in 2000 Rolling Stone proclaimed En Vogue as one of the top 5 most important female groups in the HISTORY of modern r & b music. As the standout lead singer on most of the groups hits, Dawn soon became the most visible in the iconic quartet. Selling over 20 million records world wide En Vogue had hits such as “Hold On” “Free Your Mind” “Giving Him Something He Can Feel” and “Don’t Let Go”. After nine years with EnVogue, Dawn got a call from her childhood friend from the Bay Area, Raphael Saadiq of Tony Toni Tone’. Saadiq made her an offer she couldn’t refuse after which she promptly turned down a deal with RCA Records to lead the trio, Lucy Pearl which went on to sell over a million albums & get nominated for a Grammy. Constantly evolving, Dawn, yet again had reinvented herself and was ready to soar to higher heights but after heartbreakingly similar results to her experiences in En Vogue left her financially uncompensated for her contributions, Dawn found it was time to take her act solo. With almost 20 years of worldwide hit making, 5 Grammy nominations, 9 MTV Video Music Awards (more than any female group in MTV history including Destiny’s Child, TLC, etc…), a Sammy Davis Jr. Lifetime Achievement Award, 4 American Music Awards, countless NAACP Image Awards, 11 Soul Train & Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards, & the business savvy of an entrepreneur holding the patent to the light bulb, Dawn is now poised to make a comeback that will rival & bring to mind the successes of Tina Turner to Mariah Carey! In addition to musical talent, she has successfully partnered with her husband/manager Dre Allen on the business side to develop a made for tv reality show. The couple will also be developing artists for their label Movemakers Entertainment including four member girl group Joanz, & harmony rich balladeers IV Xample (pronounced for example). No doubt if the world were to get two words of advice that would best sum up Dawn’s reentry onto the musical landscape of today, those two words would certainly be “GET READY”!
