Dawn Richard: BOMBS (VIDEO)

Dawn Richard rounds up her Hearts and storms the desert in the video for “Bombs,” the explosive first single off her EP Armor On, produced and written by Druski. The former Danity Kane and Dirty Money diva transforms into a warrior princess, donning a feathered headpiece and long braid, as she and her dancers bust out aggressive choreography to the bombastic beat.

“I wanted the art direction to be cohesive with the song and sound of the EP,” said Dawn. “Warriors fighting for the same cause. ‘Bombs’ is the ‘Hearts have arrived’ record.”
