The August Alsina tape is hardly "random."

Dreamer's been releasing a lot of music that perks my ears lately, but for as good as all of these songs sound, not one of them has been anywhere near classic. It's really frustrating; it feels like his gift is still there, but he just can't close the deal anymore.

that's not a pattern that genius producers have historically fallen into at all!

this is actually the first song off this project i can half-imagine willingly listening to again! certainly the most immediate

oh gawwwwwd jay-z is terrrrible though why is he mimicking kanye's HUHHHH

i KNEW before the outro even happened that it'd be a soft and billowy and nothingy affair purely based on j0rdan liking it, lol

i can actually remember this one after it ended! it's a bit like a third-tier "hit it on the road"

A non-event. No crisis though. But 4Play sounds classic after it.

What singles are available now, and what's worth buying?

Don't say "High Art"

Did he really need a song named "Pussy"?

3. Equestrain
4. Pussy (Feat. Big Sean & Pusha T)

read this as "Pussytrain" at first

looool @ "Tron" being on the album

everything below "outro" i'm thinkin is an itunes deluxe edition track

there are samples on itunes, it sounds p bad :/

too early sample sounds nice

haven't listened to samples yet but have not dug anything off this except "slow it down" (a nice throwback to los' cotton-candy) and "IV play" (terius indulging in maximalism)...

^like this guy

lots of these snippets are v v promising imo, schlumps a h8r

lol 'outro' is basically a weeknd diss

rly hopin theres a sweet transition in "lovin you / crazy"

ha I am really not a hater, i am an opteriusist, it's just everything sounds post-l.o.s thin, autotuned to the point of obscuring t's voice & just sorta weirdly aimless/slight/slightly misguided like high art so far imo. I am still googling DREAM THE-DREAM FOURPLAY VINYL everyday I am just sorta suspecting/accepting that this is not the lush love king sequel I am desiring. I have spent a long while recently bugged by the easy, consequence free cynicism of low pop culture expectations ('oh this is going to be a trainwreck') so I seriously have no pleasure hating on it, just I listened through today & it all sounded p blank.

yeah, totally agree with schlump. snippets sound p dire

sorry equesTRAIN might've been a typo...

i am a bit worried that the Beyonce and Kelly Rowland features will be nowhere as good as the tracks that Terius has done for each of their upcoming albums... or i guess i shouldn't be worried, and come to terms with the fact that since Love King i've more often enjoyed his productions for other artists than the stuff he does for himself...

Finishing up my first listen of this, and it sounds really good. Nice rebound from 1977. Nothing as grand and grabbing as his first two records, of course, but he's testing enough new ideas that it doesn't feel like a lesser redux of them, either—I'm struck but how many of these tracks don't song immediately identifiable as Dream songs.
