The-Dream has announced the release of a free Internet album titled Terius Nash Est. 1977, which he plans to release before August 31st. The singer-songwriter, who is currently working on his fourth studio LP The Love, IV (Diary of a Madman) in time for a fourth quarter release, will release the 10-track giveaway under his government name Terius Nash and will be shooting videos for 1977 this week.

If this goes through i’ll be checking for this. Dream is one of the most underrated in the R&B game.
co-sign
I agree
I seen The Dream in concert and I was hooked on his music from there. He’s a legit singer, songwriter, and producer. Elektra Red signed to Radio Killa and them chicks can sing, but they just as underrated. Looking for to more material from him..out!
Radio Killa!!!!
HAPPY ABOUT THIS GOOD LOOKING OUT DREAM!! CAN’T WAIT FOR THE ALBUM AND BEST BELIEVE IM A BE LISTENING TO THE FREE ALBUM… RADIO KILLA!!!
i like the way this guy does business.
Dude do good music….if these 2 projects are anythings like his 1st 3… should be crazy!
preciate cha terius. Been needing some good R&B miguel and frank held me over time for the main course….
Downloading now…. that’s whats up!
I listened to this joint this morning, and if it weren’t for the production, this “album” would’ve been terrible. This is my opinion of course, but in all honesty, Dream don’t really talk about nothing throughout the album (1 track obviously aimed at CM). The autotune throughout is boring and highlights how deadpan this joint is material wise. R&B these days donesn’t seem to have any real natural talent or ambition anymore and it shows when the producers are better known and more of a requirement than the actual songwriter. All my opinion.
you obv dont listen to john legend or amy winehouse
I actually like his music… That falsetto song had me bumping his ish…. He really is underrated….
FIRE!! “WISH YOU WERE MINE” IS ILL
Dream put out 3 hot album to date and he is definitely slept on. He’s a creative dude!
A ‘free album’ huh? Sounds like a mixtape to me
the dream can’t sing but his production and songwriting skills are excellent
Although I know people who met & worked with him & say he’s an AZZHOLE, Dream really is the last of a dying breed of TRUE ARTists, but due to the politricks of the game they won’t let him be great. Due is from that Jodeci era, when R&B used to mean somethin before cats started doing dance songs…GTFOH!..He is the last great self contained R&B Artist, R-Kellz and them their time is up. Dreams 1st Album is still a classic and I almost made 2 babies while smashin’ to that ish. Who else can match what this dude accomplished in a short span of time.
only one bad song and thats “real nigga shit”
That nigga the Dream can sing, write and produce(he cool spitting too) yall bugging
and wats up with def jam…Everybody on they label hate them
