WRITER/PRODUCER GONE ARTIST: THE DREAM

theDream – Shawty Is A 10

Think you’ve never heard this guy’s music before? Well, if you’ve recently blasted Rihanna’s “Umbrella” (which he wrote in 12 minutes) or “Breakin’ Dishes” or J. Holiday’s “Bed,” then you’re very familiar with The Dream’s sound. Working closely with teammates Tricky Stewart and Jazze Pha, Dream plays guitar, trumpet and drums and is the husband of R&B singer, Nivea. It’s no wonder that in his spare time, he enjoys painting and sculpting. Drawing his inspiration from Sam Cooke, Al Green and Timbaland, this Rockingham, NC native (now based in Atlanta) has production and writing credits everywhere. Just check the discography.

It’s rumored that his new video for “Shawty Is A 10″ is being shot in the coming weeks. There are definitely high hopes set for this new Def Jam signee. But he’s definitely not new to the game…

For more information about the Dream, make sure you log onto his MySpace and be on the look out for the exclusive sit-down interview with the hit-maker.

    12 minutes to write “Umbrella”? I wrote better in 2 minutes. At any rate, his wife is the shit and this song is ok…. get yo Dream slim!

    WTF? It sounds like R. Kelly scrapped SHAWTY IS A TEEN, and this guy took what was left and ran with it. I’m sorry, but that was strait horrid.

    The moment that Brian mentioned Umbrella, I practically stopped writing. I can see why Umbrella took 12 minutes to right, because all she does is say Umbrella-ella-ella-eh-eh from start to finish.

  3. THE SOURCE

    Yeah Shawty is a TEN!!!!And he is talking about RIHANNA!!! I heard that Dream is having an AFFAIR with Rihanna?????? I heard a snippet from a song he wrote about it called, “LIving a Lie”. He is sending her exspensive chocolates and gifts! She is wearing his clothes!!!! Whats up with that????? Someone needs to find out for a fact if this is true!

    WHAT????? Dream is having an affair with Rihanna???? That’s crazy!!!! But I did hear someone mention that before!!! Is there any evidence?

  5. THE SOURCE

    Yeah there is evidence. My homegirl said she seen a Youtube clip of her recording in his sweater and them in the studio flirting! But they took the video off, Ima keep checking back, bc someone gots to put it back up! But the duet he wrote clearly talks about them living a lie, and having to hide their relationship and not put his name on her gifts and hurting inside bc they are living apart and not wanting to hide thier feelings! And everyone knows that Dream is like a rapper and doesnt, write anything down, like a freestyle. He jumps in the booth and just talks about what is going on in his life! This is the real deal!!!! SHIT IS ABOUT TO HIT THE FAN!!! And Rihanna also is said to be his inspiration behind “BED”>>>>NOW THAT IS CRAZY!!

    Why cant Rihanna find a man that doesnt have a girl already?? Whats up with that?? And why cant married men stay commited??? Someone needs to write a song about that!

  8. Shortstuff

    THE SOURCE, I sure hope you know what you are talking about, bc, this may break up someboby’s home! But I guess it wasnt a happy home to start with if this is true, yah dig? GOOD LUCK NIV!!!

  9. Sexy_lady

    Yeah I agree Shortstuff, I hope this is true, and it sounds like it is, bc someone is going to be pissed regardless. And regardless SOMEONE is going to be BREAKIN DISHES!!!!!! YIKES

  11. Jatea McCauley

    Yo this is my favorite song I love it the vibe of the song is hot this is a club banger. It has a twist to it I’m a perfect 10 hahaha but on the real this song is hot.

  12. MissJo

    I listened to the first 20 seconds of the song, and I could definitely see what everyone is talking about. It sounds like something R. Kelly threw out, T.Pain picked up, and J. Holiday jumped on the back of.
    Hated it.

  13. SHANNON WILLIAMS
