[BreezyBreeTV]

This go stupid..I love her voice.

You should label what the sounds are from the beat when you edit your videos.

Like In the corner before you add the instruments.Makes it more insightful for us producers.

[Jorel7617]

[springheat28]

Glad 2 hear you making some good beats again. That last video was a bit disappointing. The only thing that coulda saved it was Gucci Mane. Anyway, i really appreciate you doing these videos for us. Thanks!

[itp79]

JD all those haters saying your beat making sessions are boring don't understand a true artist at work...I def appreciate a glimpse into your world man...Nuff respect..

[mr45king]

no doubt alot of slow people out there...they dont understand the making of the beat or a song...they only understand a finished product...if its already a hit and u show them the making of it then they will get it.

[Briellz]

SO SO DEF! LEGOOOOOOOOOOO!

[234num]

I like the beat and Dondria album is going to be number 1!!!!! on the charts

[paradigma]

Its nice you still using a Cash till for making beats. Sorry very cheeky. Nice to see some dynaudio in the background. And the only outgear i use is an Virus TI.

Another Klass Mate,

Nathan

[Influence202]

LUV THE CREATIVE PROCESS!! PLs keep these vids coming!!!! LIFERS ALL DAY

[CHRISSTOREY1]

Are you ever gonna sell your old Gear JD

[PatLaird]

Sick. got some beats on my page.

[MzFufu]

Is the "Fancy" track being used for the Dondria Duets 2 mixtape?

If so...can I PLEASE suggest that she goes a different route?

I think Dondria should do the duets with other females (kind of like Keyshia Cole & Monica/ Fantasia & JHud)

It would really help people to see that she can hold her own against many of the R&B singers out there, and it would also help in stopping all these comparisons!

[LTDproduction]

fuck a hater lovin these studio vids JD!

[TheMsboo35]

i really enjoy ur videos...

[trinichic210]

i like dondrias freestyle. on fancy. dat was hot!

[janessaep]

Very Rock Box a la Run DMC!

[4lifeent215]

Damn Dondria killin' that "Fancy" track! JD I peep how u piecing that beat together...schools in session. Good look!

[IHEARTHIPHOPDOTCOM]

[CECEDAVIS08]

[slilly79]

I am gonna be honest. These beat making sessions are BORING. JD PRETTY PLEASE bring my BOYS back to the studio. Where is Trey, Johnta, Tyrone and Bcox? 

[kas2492]

[boomtomb]

[donp25]

J.D. why you wearing "GUY" Damion Hall glasses?

[jmillerz5555]

What happened to Jola?????

[tosb38]

Where did he sample the instruments from?

[sho3diva17]

@tosb38 from the maschine its something like a mpc

[Trackstarsmusic]

I was at Sonics the other day and I heard Dondria playing on their speakers.

[wood2226]

That beat goes hard!!!!

[thewb39]

i love these studio vlogs ! you always inspiring me to work when i peep these. thanks @JD1472

[rodeo0808]

keep the beat makin vids coming

[MusiQKisLiPHe]

I love her voice, I love her swag but like the guy below me, she gotta learn how to hold down a stage on beyonce level... 5 stars though

[Neog2]

I dont understand how her stage presence is so weak. I mean sure singing in front of thousands of people is daunting, but her presence in her phatfffat videos makes it seem like they are two distinct people instead of one in the same.

She needs to be able to captivate the audience and demand the respect

of the audience. Every time i see her on stage in a video she just looks.Take her to see Johnny Gill, and a Bobby Brown performance and watch how they make it so your not wondering why you came.

[Dzanar]

Good advice: If you make these kind a videos. Let people hear the final with the vocal. Just a snap. It let people come back to your channel. Now, it feels more disapointing if wathc the video. I only saw the production and vocal recording. But not the sample spoof. We're tring support you by putting it on our website Drukkk.nl

[Nemey69]

- It's not the equipment, It's the Brains behind it !!

[watchoutguy123]

Wayy too dope to be on utube!!

[bkflyboy718]

[aaaaaagg2a]

The thing about Dondria is she doesn't stand out, she sounds like other women singers today. When i here Dondria sing she reminds me of Letoya Lucket.

I liked it up until Dondria. Im starting to feel shes being pushed down my throat.

[thebullfrog24]

@Makavoll yeah i agree with the "shes being pushed down my throat" lol but i mean shes his artist so i understand what hes trying to do.

This is actually the first thing i've liked from dondria with her on that drake "fancy". i'll actually be checking for that one.

[mrmanchild25]
