NE-YO v THE DREAM

thnx ice craem

rockin that thang is so gr8, good way to end the mix

why did jim jones and ne-yo get into a fistfight

because Ne-Yo was with some Def Jam lackey who's the brother of one of Jay-Z's best friends, apparently.

"why did jim jones and ne-yo get into a fistfight"

I was hoping this was the first half of a joke.

love/hate song with mariah

feelin it

my b - love vs money song with mariah duh

also album out feb 17

lol @ "who's been lovin you lately?/ who's been willing to go half on the baby?"

wtf is the immense synth riff from 'rockin that thang' reminding me of

'stripper love' is big too, and yeah def feeling this mimi.

this DRAEM/Mariah tune is dope

imo "right side of my brain" is a worthy little brother to "cry me a river"

btw

who's in love with yo ass like crazy?

i like how on "right side of ya brain" the customary "aaaayyyyyys" are all screwed and sad sounding

same song duh - what's it even called anyway

"Rockin' That Thang"
"Walkin' On The Moon" ft. Kanye West
"My Love" ft. Mariah Carey
"Put It Down"
"Sweat It Out"
"Take U Home 2 my Mama"
"Love Vs. Money"
"Love Vs. Money: Part 2"
"Fancy"
"Right Side Of My Brain"
"Mr. Yeah"
"Kelly's 12 Play"
"Let Me See The Booty" ft. Lil Jon
"Touch & Feel"
"Nothing But Love"

"Kelly's 12 Play"

hahaha

^^^hahaha thats such a the-dream type joke/probable metaphor -- should be real awkward but itll be real well written, sort of like ignoring the soulja boy style "YOUUUUU"s in "luv songs"

the crank dat ref in "luv songs" is awesome - the o_O one is "Mr. Yeah"

lil jon tribute song perhaps

"Love Vs. Money"
"Love Vs. Money: Part 2"

I'm hoping these flow into one another, the segue being announced by a sudden irruption/eruption of melodramatic strings.

right side of ya brain, right side of ya brain, right side of ya brain...you loved me baby, unlove me baby

so insanely looking forward to this album

"rockin that thang" video is v great - i wasn't so hot on the song until like last night but yeah. my fav part i think is when he goes "we beat it up like gorillas..." and you're just waiting for those DREAM DRUMS to come in. also "i wanna change your name to mrs. nash"

haha i was just about to post that video and say something about him taking the shades off being NAGL.

qu'est-ce que c'est DREAM DRUMS?

I've always wondered why someone who looks so much like something with six legs and wings to begin with would rock big, bug-eyed shades.

looking thinner too

anyway idk what you're saying but by DREAM DRUMS i mean those exhaling (tm) drums that are on "bed" and "purple kisses" and the like

btw "my love" - potential smash?

when you've got a chubby face like him you can wear those huge shades and look aaight imo

i'm just being a pedant and objecting to referring to drums by the songwriter and not by the producer... I always associated those swinging toms with Los (who did "Bed" and "Purple Kisses") but since Tricky produced "Rockin'" maybe Dream is the common link. go figure.

i've only listened to "My Love" once but it left zero impression on me. I liked "Touch My Body" alright but i can't see a whole album of maria/dream collabs not being really lame.

i'm just being a pedant and objecting to referring to drums by the songwriter and not by the producer

i actually knew you were going to do this but i didnt feel like looking up who produced what

btw i'm starting a favorite song poll cuz i love this album and ilm is real boring today

someone revived a swan lake thread

you know, i find it really weird that this dude hasn't had a really big hit yet (and his profile barely exists in the uk).

haha i was just about to post that video and say something about him taking the shades off being NAGL.

i know right, the O_O to o_o metamorphosis makes his eyes look weird and piggy.

not keen on the video - some of the dance moves are good but the lighting sucks and the split screen effect is lame. but the song is just HUGE, love it so much. i also really really love 'let me see the booty' and 'stripper love' and the mariah one now. so yeah, hugely hyped for the album, though hoping it's not one of those deals where it arrives and i realise i've heard it all already.

also, i haven't heard the explicit version of 'rockin that thang', but i really cannot imagine the chorus going "rockin that shit"

weird cuz i heard "rockin that shit" before "rockin that thang" and now the latter sounds off to me but i deleted "shawty is da shit" off of my itunes because it sounded so wrong after "shawty is a ten"

I agree with Lex, an explicit version of "Rockin That Thing" seems like a bad idea.

But I prefer "Shawty Is Da Shit"...

Maybe it's mostly what you heard first.

i prefer 'shawty is da shit', definitely

also i think i have the clean version of 'stripper love' cuz he sings "tipper love" on the chorus

I'm much more excited for Electrik Red's How To Be A Lady than I am for Love vs. Money. The Electrik Red album sounds a lot more adventurous.... I'm not really feeling "My Love", I mean it's alright but.... whatever.

explicit "shawty" at least rhymes.

haha yeah i'm in the 'ten' camp too
tim f otm, i heard the clean version at a party for the first time. it supplanted "throw some Ds" with my friends and i, w/r/t overused hip hop phrases

and yeah i think same here re: Elektrik Red, I think he writes for female singers better than for guys (or himself).

electrik red is going to be great too - although i'm kind of wary of them all being really muscular "we fuck you"/"ditch that" style 'Bangers'.

TS ne-yo- vs the dream-penned beyonce songs

the outro of "we fuck you" is insane tho

I really love this new song he wrote for Mario though, "Boom In It":

I wouldn't mind an entire Mario/Dream album...

i heard something about an entire kanye/dream album in the works, not sure whether i imagined it or not

ya it's supposedly called Love King and is supposedly coming out this year, which, you know

Yeah I heard that. Hopefully that doesn't happen.

I dunno, the stuff that leaked is pretty varied... I don't think "So Good" is a 'banger' per se.

talking of electrik red, does anyone have any listenable mp3s of 'freaky freaky' and 'friend lover'? mine say they're 320 but they sound like total ass.

btw i'm feeling that mario tune.
