I can't put this album down., March 3, 2008
I love this CD. I usually don't care for music that is so ghetto-fabulous and like to think of myself as "too grown" for that kind of stuff. But, I have to admit, this is what I bump in my car...and some of the songs even in my bedroom. = )
Shawty is the *** really grew on me on the radio, and when I heard "Falsetto" I knew I had to go cop the CD. I love it. "I love your girl" is a hit. "Nikki" is a hit. "Purple Kisses" is super-sexy and "She Needs my Love" is a major hit and I also like "Fast Car". My absolute favorite song on the CD is "Love Songs". This is a baby-maker. The whole CD is good, I love to bang it my car, like I said. It makes me feel sexy and cool.

The Dream- Love/Hate, December 12, 2007
This is easily the biggest surprise of the year for me. Because i honestly am shocked i even bought this album. I absolutely hated "Shawty Is A 10", i thought it was the dumbest song ever. And then it started to grow on me, and i had some extra cash after i bought Go, Mario's new album, By the way dont sleep on that album, read my review on that one if your interested, but anyway, i had some extra cash so i went ahead and bought the Dream. And i put it in my car, and as i was going through the songs, i started to notice there were only a few i didnt like, and there were some i REALLY liked. For instance, "Falsetto" now if that song ain't a babymaker than i dont think sex exsists because i called one of my girls right after listening to it, and lets just say we listened to the song a few times lol. But i really hope that they dont over play "Falsetto" like they did "Shawty is Da Sh%*" cuz i really like that song. I also really liked "Fast Car", this song sounds so much like something Prince would have done its not even funny. As a matter of fact, this whole album sounds like a Prince album with the electro/dance type of beats with the roaring thunder drums. And the reason why i was hatin on Dream so much was because i thought he couldnt sing for his life, and i still stick to that but like Ray J, he uses the voice he does have very well. And it helps that he is a great producer. I mean overall the album is nowhere near the caliber of Go, Exclusive, or even Veteran, but i was still very surprised and he definetly won me over with this album.
Grade:
B

One hell of a surprise, March 2, 2008
Honestly, I did not see this one coming. This album is hot. Shawty is a Ten is actually one of my least favorite songs along with I Love Your Girl, so I thought the album started off decent, but once Fast Car kicked in, DAMN the album was bumpin. She Needs my Love, Falsetto, Playin In Her Hair, Purple Kisses, Ditch That, ... I mean the rest of the album was bumpin. The song for Mama was real nice too, no doubt, even though there was a lot of electronic sound in it. I think he's a strong songwriter, singer and producer. Yeah, some things throughout the album were a little redundant like the "ay's" and stuff, but that's a minor thing. He got some dance tracks, some good mid tempo to slower tracks. The album is different (and short) enough to stay interesting, but not so different to make it seem disjointed and more like a compilation. I'm glad as hell I got it cause I stay bumpin The Dream now, man. He didn't even have crazy famous guest appearances or nothing, just held it down himself the whole album. I wonder what's next from this dude.
If I had to pick out some favorite songs, I'd have to say my favorites are Fast Car, Falsetto, She Needs My Love, Nikki, Ditch That..., Playin In Her Hair and Purple Kisses... Enough? lol
