Disclaimer: I had to send in this intro mad late. It needed to be tested out, if you know what I mean. Sorry, but when The-Dream releases a new single like Turnt Out, you can’t really understand the music unless it’s in its proper context. With that being said, let’s break this one down: acclaimed crooner and songwriter The-Dream teams up with frequent collaborator Los Da Mystro for a steamy ballad off of Dream’s latest LP Love King. Playing out like the soundtrack to (you guessed it) a passionate sex scene in your favorite urban drama, Turnt Out finds Terius Nash at his best. Utilizing his sweeter-than-chocolate-covered-strawberries falsetto to seduce the apple of his eye, The-Dream is impressive as ever. Turnt Out is an excellent display of songwriting and an even better showing of production with Los presumably channeling the spirit of Prince and Avant’s lovechild. Just sit back and listen, I’m sure you’ll find something to get you turnt out. And if this track doesn’t do the job, I’m sure something on Dream’s upcoming album Love King, available June 29, will.

This song first appeared on the Top Hip Hop / R&B Chart on June 28, 2010

After the utterly-boring and totally underwhelming release of "Make Up Bag," I couldn't be happier with the decision to release "Turnt Out" as the new single. It's Dream at his best, which to say is very very good.

I anticipate this album becoming a bedroom staple, much like Love vs. Money was. Time will tell if it lives up to the first two releases though.

And Z, you didn't like Make Up Bag? That jawn was top notch trickin' at its finest.

I don't know what it is about me - maybe it's just the way my mind works - but my ears do not allow me to be receptive to Dream. I REALLY want to like him, but I CAN'T.

This, though, is good. Not a fan of the entire Dream spectrum, but this color is nice.

Trust me, "Love King" is really good. I just listened to it. This song is just classic Dream, and while I liked "Make Up Bag", this is obviously much much better. I'm really loving the falsetto. Just makes you realize nobody can do it like Dream.

this is really good. a much needed song to make Love King a great album. i like Love King and this a lot, but i dunno bout the rest of the album. i have serious doubts it will be in the same range as Love vs Money considering the otha leaks. 4.5

One of the album's highlights, well, the whole album is a highlight in the world of albums, cop it on the 29th!

This is Dream back in Falsetto mode, after the lackluster (but still decent) single, "Make Up Bag", "Turnt Out" is a welcome addition to the radio. Hopefully this will bag him a substantial hit before he retires.

wasn't expecting this falsetto. But the song is straight. I actuallly like when he sings in his regular voice instead of the falsetto for long periods.

I must admit, This is really nice. Dream has a nice voice and he shows it on here. The beat matches the vocals perfectly. This is really nice ride or work music. I can dig it!

I love a Dream falsetto as much as the next man, but I honestly feels like he overdoes it here a little bit. His best baby makers always shift between the falsetto and deeper notes, and this stays at too high a register to really get smoking to me. Better than 99% of the r&n ish out there, but for Dream, average.

God the wait until Love King is killing me.

I love the production, its fresh but the voice is mad annoying. Maybe I need a few more spins to think it is a total banger but i think its Okay. Nothing spectacular in my opinion. Just Dream being Dream I guess.

I am a sucker for R&B songs, but Los needs some new production whats up with the SNAPS! Although the chords are nice, dream does Way too much falsetto here, and I never liked his falsetto anyways. I would rather hear Mariah on this though...

Love King is surely going to be a great album, why? because The-Dream isn't always havin different producers, he keeps the same two so they can all grow musically and have good sucess

I think every Dream song sounds the same, he never seems to switch up the theme either.
