The-Dream - Love King (Remix)
Artist: The-Dream
Producer: L.O.S. Da Mystro
Album: Love King
Label: Radio Killa/Def Jam/IDJMG
We’ve got a lot of ground to cover on The-Dream’s new Love King remix, so let’s not waste any time. First, while the Radio Killa announced on his Twitter that the official-official remix will feature Luda (the duo have already shot a video), in the meantime he’s brought on “don’t call me Young anymore” Jeezy for the merely “official” remix. Here the original production, by L.O.S. Da Mystro, and Dream’s typically hypnotizing vocals remain largely untouched, meaning it’s the Snowman’s always gritty vocals that make all the difference. While I personally prefer my Jeezy rhymes about flipping kilos, not lovestruck young ladies, those who liked his work on Love in This Club should love his vocals here as well. And now for the question you knew was coming: does Jeezy’s verse add or subtract from the original? Well…? Either way, the anticipation surrounding Dream’s upcoming third album, which he says might be his last, is sure to only get bigger before it finally drops on May 17. Mark your calendars.

Nothing against Jeezy, but I simply prefer the rap-less original version. I might not be saying that once the other remix with Luda pops into my inbox (inevitably this week), but for now I am going to drop it down a ratings point (I know I know, just call me the Russian judge).

I actually prefer this version but thats because there are very few tracks Jeezy actually does his things, but this one works.
For me i think Luda will drop a verse like he did on Unpredictable |

This bored the sh*t out of me. Not because the song is bad (I've had it in rotation for a while) but because it's the same song! Switch it up. Bring some freshness. I know The-Dream is a creative dude, he needs to show it. Jeezy was average.

I wanna hear Loso and Luda! on Official Remix.
It's smart to keep with a formula that works, right? After all, the song prides itself on sticking to a certain formula (with different words). This version isn't enough for me to add it to my rotation. |

I love The-Dream, love this song to DEATH, but I have to say that Jeezy subtracted the score. He ruins the song. I would much rather have The-Dreams original breakdown towards the end. Besides, in this unofficial-official "remix" they cut out my favorite part! ("They told me get my money up...so I went and got my money up!")

I don’t think Jeezy adds much to the track.

I find this track rather repetitive. Good beat, though

Like the original a lot and this is basically the same thing. Jeezy was solid, though nothing he said blew me away. L.O.S could of changed up the beat, along with Dream adding different verses and this could of been a dope remix.

The original was fantastic, but Jeezy's voice doesn't fit with this all and his flow & lyrics are average. He brings it down for me. I think that Luda will fit well with this. Until then, 3 stars.

I love the original, and this version isn't that bad and yes I agree with everybody here in saying that Jeezy doesn't make a good remix here. Hopefully Ludas will be better. Ha what am I saying it will be...

nice song....another hit by THE DREAM....and although the song is still great without JEEZY ..i think he gives the song a much needed break from the slow but bangin vocals of the dream

I like it both the orginal and the remix and I think Jeezy did good but he could have done better.

Too repetitive. Jeezy doesn't add anything to the song which is very disappointing.

These two on a track together is a hit. The Dream is for sure a well rounded song writer and singer along with the one an only jeezy.

I am not a fan of this song. I really do not like the dream and the spelling things out sounds like a preschool kind of thing... not a good song in my opinion
