Aubrey O’day always fought for the group , meanwhile Diddy was turning the girls against each other instead of encouraging their individuality.

[@Hopeguz3]

Exactly, and I respect her for speaking up for herself. I’m not mad Aubrey started doing her own thing, it seemed like she spoke the loudest and she probably got tired of it.

[@mike4space]

Yeah I agree .. Aubrey pretty much made Danity Kane if I'm being honest. I know ya'll all like Dawn. But Remember Aubrey came first. She was the first person Diddy recognized. She was literally "the star" of the group. Even after leaving DK people still recognize Aubrey over all dem girls. If I'm being honest had Diddy's dumbass not fired Aubrey. They would have been more successful. Media focused on Aubrey because she had that image. People were drawn to her image and the media ate it up. After she left and Diddy worked with Dawn. He didn't do that well with dirty money. Okay yes they had a couple hits with Dawn and the other black girl. But it was nothing compared to the hits of DK. It was a terrible decision Diddy. He should be ashamed of himself with his egotistic self. I secretly also blame him for bitting the girls against each other. I mean shit it was partially the media's fault. Labeling Aubrey "The Hot" girl, Dawn "The ugly girl that can sing", Shannon "The white girl that can dance", D.Woods "the black girl that can dance" and Aundrea "the other girl". Shit I be hating bitches if someone called me ugly and they said the other one was sexy. Also tbh what people are not realizing and talking about. Ya'll think Dawn got the burned end of the stick. I truly felt that D.Woods was the one that got mistreated the most. That's just in my opinion. Yes Dawn did go through racism, prejudice, bias, discrimination, etc. But it was D.Woods that ended up being fucked over the most. Dawn still had a career and was promoted through Diddy. So she didn't end up being mis used like everyone thinks she did. I understand her back story it is sad. I'm sorry she went through that. But she was still doing alright after leaving DK. She didn't have it that bad trust me. D.Woods was not only fired but she had to rely on her own success and had to do things her own way. I love all them girls GO DK!! I love Aubrey, I love Dawn, I love Aundrea, I love Shannon and I love D.Woods. They all made DK. I love DK as much as I love 5H Fifth Harmony!! I can draw soooo many connections to both groups!! All girls leave a special place in my heart! DK forever!!

Recently jaguar came out and said she walked in on diddy getting head from Christopher Daniel's. Kevin hart even called him out for making gay passes at usher. He likes men. Not women. That's why his so hard on women. And many people said cassie was diddy sex slave. He would make her go down on men before he closed deals and his wife said he liked strap ons. Men know about homosexuality with diddy but dont say nothing about it because of hus power and who he is.

[@ElMasDope510]

I still get mad thinking about Diddy killing off Danity Kane. At the end of the day what did he gain from it? He is the one that needed to sit down and be humble. Especially when their music was better than anything he ever released on his own by far. I can’t recall one song released by him that didn’t feature another artist. And that’s because he’s a wanna be artist. It boils down to him and his ego being hurt by a woman talking back to him on television. He’s a joke in all honesty. Idgaf how much money he has.

I love that D Woods walked away with dignity. Puff is not used to people standing up to him. I bet he expected her to cry and beg. Controlling to the highest degree. He’s done a lot of evil things to a lot of people just to flex his muscles and show that he’s in control. He likes to tell people about being in a ‘dark and lonely’ place’ without realising that’s exactly where he would be if he didn’t have money to buy those around him!! he has a lot to answer to when he meets his maker

Hannah Benard you saw that connection? I see that connection all the time as well! I keep telling people that all the time. They are the older Fifth Harmony lol. So many connections. DK formed on a reality TV show on MTV called Making the Band. 5H formed on a reality tv show on Fox called The X Factor. They both had 5 members each. Aubrey from DK and Lauren from 5H developed that wild sexual side of the group. Ally from 5H and Shannon from DK were the oldest members of their groups. Ally was the little Big Sis. Shannon was the mother of the group. D. Woods and Normani was the soulful dancers of the group. Dinah and Dawn both had strong powerful background stories. Dinah lived with 25 people. Dawn went through hurricane Katrina and So did Normani as well. Aundrea and Camila were the fun likable fan favorites of the group. Also they have similar skin complexion, speak Spanish, have Mexican backgrounds. Also they are both close in height too. They both either 5’1 or 5’2.

[@mike4space]

Hannah Benard Danity Kane was managed by Diddy. Fifth Harmony was managed by Simon Cowell. Both groups of you think about in some way originated or located in Miami. Miami is the homeland for both groups. Fifth Harmony performed for the first time in Miami and they even had a different name their name was Lylas. Making the Band had a another season after the girls made the group focused on recording their first album and they were located in Miami. Danity Kane was a mix of races. Danity had 2 black girls 2 white girls and 1 Latina member. Fifth Harmony was a mixed of races as well. Fifth Harmony had 3 Latinas 1 black and 1 Pacific Islander member. And the Latinas were distinct as well. 1 was Cuban, 1 was Mexican and 1 was Mixed Cuban/Mexican. Because Danity Kane had more black members they were marked more through black media and black entertainment. Because Fifth Harmony had more Hispanic members they were more marked through Hispanic and Latin media. Also both groups had a bisexual member. Lauren from Fifth Harmony and Aubrey from Danity Kane. And they were both known as the hot girls of their groups.

[@mike4space]

Hannah Benard honestly some of their songs like Bad Girl reminds that much of DNA from Little Mix. So I can kinda see connections between Danity Kane and Little Mix as well tbh. Dynamically they seem more like Fifth Harmony. Musically I can see them being like Little Mix.
