The Dream - Love Vs. Money
One of things I've outgrown since I was 16 is that when shit is not going well, I avoid sad bastard music. After a break-up or I dropped my dinner on the floor, I'd put on Elliot Smith or some shit like that to ruminate with. As I've gotten older my attitude has changed completely. Now I throw on some RNB, like Kellz or Usher. Nothing beats the blues quicker than Confessions Pt. 2.
The-Dream's new album has been described as one of the best pop albums of the last decade. I completely agree; it's got notes of Prince, Justin Timberlake (specifically LoveFutureSexSounds), the good parts of T-Pain, and yes, R. Kelly. I walked out of a hard test into an April blizzard this evening, and silently sung "I'm all up on you, like a monster truck". Ay, fun is a good thing, and this album is that. I've listened to it a million times in the month it has been out, and it's fresh as ever. My summer has got a lot of this in it.

Yes yes yes. Was listening to this as I pulled into MW. I'm also over Elliott Smith for the most part, but some recent sessions leaked that were purportedly recorded before Basement on a Hill that you guys should hear.

ReplyDeleteI feel you on the mediafire links, but I don't want to bother uping the albums themselves. I could pilfer a mediafire link from somewhere, but people get mad about that kind of thing sometimes. I think I'll start putting both.
