In season 3 of "Making the Band 4" Diddy's heated relationship with Aubrey was brought to a head, ultimately leading to the decision that Danity Kane needed to move on without Aubrey. The stormy season finale also featured the emotional exit of D. Woods. Now that the destiny of Danity Kane is uncertain, Diddy will have to work his magic once again to put the pieces back together.
With the fate of Danity Kane up in the air, the new installments will focus on the guys of Bad Boy Entertainment Day26. The guys are determined to not follow in the tainted footsteps of their label mates and will work tirelessly to ensure a successful future for the group as they work on their sophomore album. But will the explosive personalities of certain group members make taking their careers to the next level difficult?
Fans will also follow the long road to success that Donnie Klang has traveled. Though his album release was met with poor sales, Donnie is determined to do whatever it takes to achieve his dream.
"Damaged: A Making the Band Special" will take a look at all of the drama that took place during the previous season. Fans of the show, media experts and members of the cast will dish about the events that led up to the explosive season ender and what we can look forward to in the new season. Viewers will also be treated to a special look at the upcoming season.
