The-Dream - Kill The Lights
Artist: The-Dream
Producer: The-Dream
Album: Love IV MMXII
Label: Radio Killa/Def Jam/IDJMG
Update: Click “Listen Now” above to watch The-Dream’s “Kill The Lights” video.
As oxygen is to breathing, as the sun is to sunlight, as Wiz Khalifa is to marijuana, The-Dream is to electronically infused, babymaking slow jams. It’s good to know some things just don’t change. Fresh off the release of his ROC video, Terius Nash is back and ready to help you put a bun in your lady’s oven with new single Kill the Lights. In typical Dream fashion, Light’s production is minimal, built around an appropriately grinding bass and drum line layered with heavily Prince-influenced synths. From there Nash returns to the same syrupy slow, semi-falsetto delivery we’ve come to love him for, urging his lady to flick that light switch and get to work. Speaking of ladies, most notably Lights is also an effective introduction to Dream’s RKR artist Casha, who brings a female perspective in equally measured and sultry bars. Something tells me this is far from the only babymaker fans can expect from his upcoming album, Love IVMMXII (fancy Roman numeral talk for “Love for 2012”), presumably coming out later this year. In the meantime, anxious fans can buy their tickets for the Kill the Lights tour right now!

This is crazy-smooth work by The Dream. I'll throw this one on when I'm looking to get lost in my thoughts. Good track.

The-Dream needs to work with some different producers just to add some variety to his sound. great songwriter but the beat just sounds like Rockin' That Things been slowed down. BTW is that Casha from Yung Bergs song?

The production is sexy and smooth but I think The Dream's songs are rather boring and sound all the same...they are all so slow! He'd need to release something more powerful, at least once!
