As if the tremendous success of his sophomore album, Love vs. Money (the only project to get Nathan S.‘s “Near-Classic” stamp of approval thus far in ‘09.), wasn’t enough, The-Dream is hoping to clean up once again with the LP’s re-release, entitled The Hangover Version.  On lead single Hit It On The Road, Dream clues the ladies in on just how versatile he really is, delivering rapped verses over Tricky Stewart‘s synth-heavy boardwork (once again). The-Dream’s bars will likely spur a debate among readers—is he cut out for spitting, or should he stick to singing?  Regardless, fans will get to enjoy the best of both worlds on Love vs. Money: The Hangover Edition (which has no set release date) and his upcoming junior album, Love King (hitting stores and online retailers just in time for Christmas).

This song first appeared on the R&B / Pop Chart on June 29, 2009

Lol, the worst song I've ever heard from him. The beat was decent but everything else was bad and I really am disappointed with Dreams Hook and Lyrics because hes such a good writer.

I've grown into a huge Dream fan and this definitely doesn't disappoint. It's not the best thing he's ever offered but it's pretty strong. It's more of a 4.5 but I'll round up.

-_-' ...you should know why... I mean, come on?! This doesn't even deserve to be on Love Vs Money!

He tried too much to shock and sound hard, too much "on my d!ck" "808 on your a$$", repetitive flow is garbage, hook is tasteless and he dumbed down his lyrics.

I'm not gonna lie, I hate this song. That album is damn near flawless, don't add this trash to it. No way, BDF does not approve of this track.

Like Phantom, I have recently became a big "The Dream" fan. I felt he was the future of music, R&B especially. "Walking On The Moon" is my jam.

This joint is CERTAINLY not his best...but the verses are pretty dope. Homey got swag. His vibe sounds like Diddy. The only thing that is wack is the hook. Other then that, it's actually a dope track that I would give 4 stars too. But since the hook was not what was poppin', I give this rotation only.

And now...for some reason, in this little bit of time

I actually like the song and the hook.

LOL.

I've been rocking to it multiple times. I actually can see this blowing up.

I can hear Drake on the remix too. LOL.

Man. This bangs.

Its a solid track, the production is good from Stewart, while Dream was reasonable.

A remix would probably warrant a higher rating from me.

With so many quality tracks on the original version of this album, I am astounded that the label decided to leak this new record. This does not fit with the rest of the project and is highly disappointing.

Should of gave this beat to someone who could of ripped it to shreds!!
Mr. Drizzy would of been a perfect candidate for this!!
I can already hear the remix and it's probably gonna feature Wayne but i'm hoping for Drake though!!
4 stars for the beat

Production value is there... And I like the verses (to an extent), but its the hook I have a problem with... The hook lets all of the air out of the track, stalling it dead between verses. Ok for now till the Remix pops out.

The beat is banging, and as a HUGE Dream fan, I support his every action. This is pretty solid, nice to hear him switch it up. IDK about it being a single, but it's damn sure better than "Let Me See The Booty" was.

Y'all can thank R. Kelly for this. He was one of the first if not the first singer to rap on his album ala Born into the 90's and 12 Play. When Dream first starts off, he sounds like he's flowing the way Rob does.

He sounds bad on the hook and has no voice range and the beat is too repetitive but somehow is a little catchy. It sounds like The-Dream says the same thing over and over again. I liked it the first time around but after a while this song is annoying

I have loved the Dream since his first album...this song probably isn't as good as some of his others in my opinion, although i have a felling it will grow on me just like that lemme see your booty song with lil jon. Definately a club song

I think this needs a solid verse on a remix for me to like it. Drake would definitely bring this song up atleast one star from me.
