After The-Dream fired shots at The Weeknd for jacking his sound during a show at New York City’s S.O.B.’s earlier this week, the latter artist has responded to the subliminals. Taking to Twitter, the elusive Canadian singer-songwriter unleashed a brief tirade, calling the Def Jam artist a “ham burglar lookin’ ass nigga.”
ham burglar lookin’ ass nigga… all i need are my brothers and my fans… fuck the bullshit. just gimme that gat damn allderdice god damm it! i’m too turnt up right now!! this nigga is so hood, he thinks my name is the weekender…i was raised old fashioned, you get at me, i get at you… ain’t no sideways shit about it…
The-Dream responded shortly after, posting a long series of tweets. He said that he wasn’t being petty about Weeknd adopting his style, but rather being honest. Terius Nash said that he has nothing but love, and that he “think the world of the boy.”

Well. At least the Dream didnt sink to the level of engaging in twitterbeef.
Then again. Didn’t The Dream take his style from Prince. Didn’t Prince adopt Jimi Hendrix and Little Richards music.
It’s all copied either way. We build on the past. ]
the dream has stated that he’s a HUGE fan of Prince
usually when you are fond of a artist you mimic some of the things they do
the dream didnt just take Prince style come on now -__-
Has The Dream been watching Boardwalk Empire? He sound like Chalky White LMAO
LOL, I thought these niggas was the same
They both suck. They both keep making the same songs over and over and bring no originality to music.
Which used to be an art. Until the last decade.
Let’s call this what it is.
Tampon beef. Two pussies arguing.
Lol throw drake in the mix and we got the softest beef ever
lmao
the dream mad he is irrelevant now lol! ovoxo is the way forward. the dream should go away..Africans run this from Ethiopia to Zimbabwe
fuck the dream. he aint real muzik. Drake & the weekend are da best R&B rapparz alive. dey would kill him in a freestyle battle. YMCMB OVOXO BRICK SQUAD MMG! swag
Here’s where you fail: The Dream and The Weeknd have words. Bring in anyone else and you prove you’re incapable of standing on your own two. But the youth doesn’t understand this. One day you will young’n. And for the record: While I do enjoy listening to The Weeknd, Budden/Emmany>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>OVOXO.
THIS NIGGA DREAM THINK HE CAN FUCK WITH OVOXO HE GOT ANOTHER THING COMIN. WE MOBBIN DREAM SLOW YOUR ROLE SON BEFORE U IN SOME SHIT U CANT GET OUT OF
13 LETTERS YMCMB OVOXO MMG
13 letters..shut the fuck up
Me personally everybody in Drake’s circle is pretty much soft as hell. He does sound like the Dream. I don’t see why he would get mad when its true. Even if Dream never puts out another album and Weeknd puts out 30 Dream will still be on a bigger level than him cause Dream ain’t just a singer, he’s a fucking songwriter. So people better understand that Dream is on another level. He was just speaking his mind and if the nigga don’t like it then he can go see him or call him….
The Weeknd is a song writer too…
Disclaimer I am white but what the fuck did I just read? Was that English? I can’t understand somebody when every sentence in a long paragraph is a slogan.
I thought i was reading some gay people love letters FUck
They both suck.
Dream is cool, but he’s a retard for starting shit. The weeknd didnt even look or say nothing bout him.
The Dream sounds like he’s fucking jealous or something.
They both are different, both sing about different subject matter.
So what the fuck is the Dream’s problem yo?
Dreams my nigga but he’s acting like a old ass nigga that bitter or some shit yo.
Maybe cuz Christina Milan signed to YM, and the weeknd fucked her??
OvOxO
the dream never said the weeknd’s name though…so then the weeknd comes out throwing shots. the dream responds with a fucking love letter. who’s the real bitter one
He dont need to say its name, nigga its clear as water.
The Dream started that shit, he’s looking for shit to start, he should just shut up and go take care of his kids.
Plus the weeknd never named him too so what you saying doe?
The dream started this throwing shoots game, plus in the long run the Weeknd will>>>>>>>>>the dream.
The weeknd is just starting, the Dream is already established.
The weeknd ain’t start shit. Why would the dream come out and say subliminal shit that is obvious?
Cuz he’s fuckin scared thats why.
anyways Balloons Trilogy>>>>>>>>>The Dream entire discography.
The weeknd sings about his lifestyle(dat drug influenced music doe gawd damn)
The Dream sings cuz of bitches n love like a simp
I don’t need to listen to dream’s simp music
what’s clear as water? the article never stated what Dream exactly said. i don’t think you understand how much pull the dream has in the industry…take my word for it…
Weeknd? I never even heard of this nigga, man.
so u musta lived under a rock for like a year or so…smh
look at da gay ass gloves this nigga wearin in that picture…….nuff said
The Weeknd > The Dream
I honestly can’t stand Dream’s music. At all. And I think “House Of Balloons” and “Thursday” are better than anything Dream has ever put out, just my opinion.
Aside from that statement, this whole twitter shit is gay and degrading.
Everything is wron with this article, first I read the word “twitter beef” and already knew it wasn’t worth any time but I checked it out anyway, then I read the dreams sweet ass essay. Smh the dreams a sweet ass nigga.
LOL @ you stupid niggas thinking that The Weeknd is even on Dream’s level. Turn on the radio right now and you’ll hear 3 songs in heavy rotation that The Dream wrote. It’s been like that for a consistent 8 years or so. The Dream is caked up and has paid his dues, from Justin Beiber ($$$) to Beyonce ($$$). The Weeknd is dope, but let’s not act like they’re on the same page…
The dream=makes simp music
The weeknd= is the simp’s antithesis
the dream is just scared.
smh you don’t get it do you
No one is contesting The Dream’s longevity and compendium of work. His own projects and projects for which he has produced/written. It’s impressive. He’s a prolific dude.
But that’s not what they were arguing about. They’re arguing over “artistry”. And I have to agree with Shuttman.
Something about The Weeknd is transcendent even if The Dream “thinks” The Weeknd’s work is derivative of his. As a consumer of both their music, The Weeknd appeals to me more. I get his vibe and his perspective. And little things like vibe and perspective completely change the flavor of someone’s music.
It’s the reason a little kid draw a bunch of scribbles that happen to look exactly like Jackson Pollock’s artwork and no one will call the little kid a genius. Their context isn’t there.
But this is my interpreation. I’m sure the The Dream thinks he’s the deepest person. A Siddhartha. (Not that the The Weeknd is). But I don’t get that from his music. I like his music. But nothing on 1977 or Love/Hate or Falsetto was supremely unique.
Terius, you’re not an indie artist. That’s not you steez. You know this, so let The Weeknd live.
^^^ i can dig it
rnbeef lol…that’s all i needed from this article
New hot mixtape from Brad Ocean. Hes back. Listen to hottest mixtape for 2012. This is the best tape out. http://www.datpiff.com/Brad-Ocean-European-Soccer-mixtape.317739.html .This is hot!!!
so now when two people argue on twitter it’s automaticlly TWITTER BEEF? fuck outta here
you know you’re a fag when you put THE at the start of your stage name
The Beatles, The Supremes, The Red Hot Chili Peppers….. You’re an idiot.
your naming all groups dumbass. He’s obv referring to solo acts
LMAO
bands dont count son
I don’t think anyone will ever be on the the weeknds level
the dream shares his girls
the dream is gay
The dream is just another nigga in the r&B game the weeknd created his own mother fuckin genre.
you need some lube for all that dick riding
losers
The-Dream > The Weekend
OVOXO til the end.. The Weekend > The Dream….. I dnt kno what sound The Dream talking bout but they have two different sound, talk about two different things! The Dream need to step back and observe…
they both should have a write off, give them 2hrs in the studio & see who come up with a better hit
wow RnB beef is the lamest. These niggas are actually arguing about who can “love” more lmaaoo
lol
the weeknd brings an entirely new perspective to r&b I still like the dream but lets be honest the weeknd go hard
Yea m not reading all that…….”exits”
faggot ass niggas with their faggot ass beefs….smfh
2 bisexual men beefing over who twists the best…….lol
both talented just move it along folks
I’m from Cali and everyone loves the weekend out here Thad all I gotta say
I’m from Cali and all the bitches out here love the weeknd
OVOXO.
(able)the weeknd is a homo/ my sister meet dis nigga when she was visitin toronto a month ago and said he more female than the girls out there/ fuckin emo r&b whitewashed shit/ dis fool will never accomplish what dream has as far as writting and producing for himself and other r&b artist
Your sister was obviously trying to fuck him being the slut she is and because she so goddamn ugly he turned her down and now she is butt hurt.
What was your sister doing out of the kitchen? story is obviously fake…
lmfao @ both those responses. sonned.
R&BDX
drake got smashed by common/ weeknd will get smashed by dream/ these faggots need to keep dat shit in canada or be humble when the come to da states acting like they invented sumthang new/ america is home of hip hop/r&b …not north america aka canada
They smashing on drake and the weekend because they scared of these new cats… Common and the dream cool but their time is up the game needs some change
LOL United States are PART of North America! being from “america”, you most likely have no idea what a map is. I’ll tell you. Its that thing you used to wipe down your face after stuffing it with a 3 pound burger that your cousin/wife picked up for you at that fine dining restaurant you call McDonalds.

twitter beef? ha ha ha
smh @ twitter beef
but i feel for dream because there’s nothing worse than feeling like somebody else is getting recognition off of your own hard work.
Imagine how Big Sean fells.
I’m sorry, but what the fuck did The-Dream say? Can anyone transcribe that for those of us that aren’t “hood?”
ebonics lol
All I can say is LMFAO.
The dream is a washed up pop song writer who’s seen his time come and go. The weeknd is hands down the best vocalist out there and clearly the future. Echoes of Silence is a masterpiece. #airhead
did you say “best vocalist”…you need to get your ears checked…he sounds like a cat getting screwed in an alley.
Never tweet when you’re drunk.
i liken this to 2 faggots having a pillow fight over the last bon bon. the dream is liked by exclusively half gay men and hood rats and the weekend is a gay man trying to make women wet, in turn turning on gay rap fans that don’t know shit about real r&b. rap and r&b both fell the fuck off, the dream is a hack, the weekend sucks, and twitter fights are one of the saddest things you can engage in as a human being. female shit.
Aww look at these cats havin a kitty fight… How adorable
the weekender is the black ricky martin and dream sucks
When have you heard Weeknd say things like “throw it in the bag”, “shawty rock to da beat for ya boy” and “we hop up in that AMG and D we in the Westin”. Stop beefin and just make music…
and this is important because?
the drean is highly underatted…listen to love vs money and youll see what im talking about….the dream has written you favorite singers song….not to mention drake even used dreams songs to remake on his album tml..fancy,shut it down just to name a few
i love r&b news!
The Weeknd did jack The Dream mos def – listen to the records – plain to see
gotta admit, when i heard weeknd, I was like, “that’s what the-dream was trying to do…”

DONT CARE!!
THE WEEKND>THE-DREAM
the dream can’t sing live…… he is basically an all r&b version of Lil Wayne with that auto tune. The Dream just more descrete with his autotune
just because your vocals sound somewhat similar doesn’t mean they jacked your sound in any way.The Dream just wants some recognition
the dream is annoying and no one listens to his new shit anyway.. he needs to get off hes just jealous of the weeknds talent that eveyones positively responding to
