DAWN x KOSHER

The KOSHER Brand is honored to collaborate with Dawn Richard at a watershed moment in her creative career, as she receives outstanding reviews for her latest studio album, SECOND LINE. It was released on April 30, 2021 through Merge Records. The title refers to the parade tradition of the same name practiced in Dawn's hometown of New Orleans.

Inspired by the album, this collection merges the humanity of the independent artist and the machinery required to realize their dreams.

About Dawn

Dawn Richard has evolved from membership in Danity Kane and Diddy-Dirty Money to become one of the more progressive forces in left-field pop, R&B, and electronic music. Since working closely with the instigator of those two groups, Sean "Diddy" Combs, the singer, songwriter, and producer has released several conceptual albums, from Goldenheart (2013) to Second Line (2021), which include a Billboard Top Ten R&B/hip-hop distinction for the former and a pair of subsequent Top Five entries on the Dance/Electronic chart. Dawn evades genre restrictions with emotive and frequently thrilling results, and connects the past to the future by honoring her Louisiana Creole and Haitian heritage with visionary instinct. In addition to her work in the studio and on-stage, Dawn is an actor and animator.

“For almost two decades, Dawn Richard has been increasingly beholden to nothing but her own satisfaction as an independent artist. Her sixth album is a decadent testament to her maturation.”

Pitchfork

“There are so many humbling messages delivered throughout ‘Second Line’, with Richard’s lyric sheet moving from racism to motherhood and female empowerment via a celebration of her roots in New Orleans culture...Diving into this record is a beautiful experience; a sensory overload of stratospheric words and sounds.”
