damn i would pay lots to see him do his songs w/ a live band

I feel like 4 dancers is too modest. Should be more like a Kylie extravaganza or something.

yeah i think w/ mid-level rap/R&B artists now delays are such an inevitability that now guys start talking up their next album as soon as the last one's out and pretend they're on a Plies-style release schedule, just to compensate for the fact that it'll be out at least 3-6 months later than they say it will.

had a weird (and excellent) moment on sunday - met ikonika at fwd and we ended up raving about the-dream to each other for like half an hour
― lex pretend, Friday, 8 May 2009 18:54 (fifteen years ago) link
Did anyone see this in the Billboard piece?
"I have to pace myself 'cause there's so much time between here and then," The-Dream says, "but the seven records I do have are timeless records. Whether they come out now or later it's not really going to matter what kind of records they are."

that last sentence doesn't really make any sense, like he dropped a clause or something somewhere

nice, didn't know about the pier six show -- it's fun to just sit on the next pier over and watch shows there for free

Goddamn I love this album but not sure if it's worth a trip to Dallas or Houston.

yeah i don't know if i'd come to see him by himself just because his live vocals can be pretty damn rough, but keyshia/dream/keri/bobby v is a pretty good bill.

― Swat Valley High (goole), Monday, 18 May 2009 21:05 (fifteen years ago) link
Funny, I've played the album at least 20 times but couldn't make it through the Lil Jon track once.
― I just wish he hadn't adopted the "ilxor" moniker (ilxor), Monday, 18 May 2009 21:14 (fifteen years ago) link
it's a great club track - it feels weird to listen to it after "kellys 12 play" but i always thought that it was equally as good as it was weird
― oj da hoosman (J0rdan S.), Monday, 18 May 2009 21:36 (fifteen years ago) link
it's so slooowwww! and it begins badly but by the time it gets into the the-dream-as-barbershop-ensemble stuff i really like it.
― Swat Valley High (goole), Monday, 18 May 2009 21:39 (fifteen years ago) link
hey why did ne-yo win this? im not saying this because i think he's the worse of the two (which i do), but rather there seems to be alot of people on ilm who like the-dream, like alot. i was surprised to see it on so many "best albums of the year so far" lists so i downloaded it and now it's on mine. is it just me and there are only six of you, or do the lot just prefer ne-yo?
― samosa gibreel, Monday, 18 May 2009 22:06 (fifteen years ago) link
a lot of ppl jumped on around the time of the year end polls. before that it was just a core group. read thru the thread
― autogucci cru (deej), Monday, 18 May 2009 22:08 (fifteen years ago) link
i wonder how many ne-yo voters have heard dream's album
― deej, Friday, March 14, 2008 8:44 PM (1 year ago) Bookmark Suggest Ban Permalink
then again, there's a lot of critics who got really excited when ne-yo got snivelly on Gentleman.
― da croupier, Monday, 18 May 2009 22:10 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah back when this poll was started dream's first album had only been out for three months, had little to know press or promo etc - most ppl jumped on way later and im pretty sure he'd win this poll if it was held again
― oj da hoosman (J0rdan S.), Monday, 18 May 2009 22:14 (fifteen years ago) link
well yeah this thread basically is ilm's only the-dream thread, and the poll was started over a year ago, before LVM and only shortly after L/H. so thats why the now-outdated poll results undervalue terius' supporters here
xpost or what jordan said
― man see united (k3vin k.), Monday, 18 May 2009 22:17 (fifteen years ago) link
i dunno...i'm not 100% sure the-dream would win if this poll was held today. he might, but it's not a lock.

cool, i hadn't noticed. what are people thoughts on the first album, btw? i haven't heard it.
― samosa gibreel, Monday, 18 May 2009 22:50 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah you're might be right - dream would probs get more than 6 votes at least
year of the gent is good but it's crushed by l/h and lvm - it might have better singles come to think of it

short answer: lots of ppl on ilm think it's a classic - i think it finished in the top 15 in the end of the year poll
― oj da hoosman (J0rdan S.), Monday, 18 May 2009 22:52 (fifteen years ago) link
All other thoughts I have about "Let Me See The Booty" are crowded out by wondering why Lil Jon keeps on shouting "LOUIE!"

"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.

the production effect they do here, that "zipper" shit, is so great. tim almost called it

i love 'let me see the booty' but had to retag it so it's not at the end of the album for this to continue. there's an ikonika mix out there which starts off with it!
"louis" as in louis vuitton, surely?
the-dream would win now, and then in six months or whatever when ne-yo releases an album as good as YOTG he'd win.
i am talking to terius on thu btw. i am going to talk to him about bobbie gentry.

ask him how his working relationship with los da maestro is different than it with tricky and if he thinks los doesn't get enough credit for his songs
