{Personal Post} PHOTOS/VIDEOS: Roots Picnic 2024

Ran it back to the Roots Picnic again.  Philly always treats me well.  There weren't many interactive things this year compared to last, so I combined all of my shots for both days into one post.  Let's dig into the details...

Funny :: (Video) Action Bronson x A$AP Ferg x The Dream x Fetty Wap x Jean Grae test out VR Porn

”Aww man I prob shouldn't have worn these sweatpants…"

Action Bronson, A$AP Ferg, The Dream, Fetty Wap, and Jean Grae were invited to Complex to test out the Virtual Reality Porn. The Dream- who says he spends 50% of his day watching Porn, was excited- amongst others giggling and trying to mask their 'excitement'. The commentary and reactions- This was pretty funny (and in whole... wild). Watch below::
Sidebar: Does anyone know who the other guy is??

Video : Culture | The Dream

She order herself Riesling
I’m ‘Troned up…

I love when creative juices flow. The Dream's new video for 'Culture' takes an alternate approach. Rather than film an actual video, he has the song playing and literally goes through personal photos and videos from his phone. While showing the 'culture' of Paris, he also reveals the face of his new Wife. The concept is pretty dope considering this the 'culture' of cell phones for everything. Check it out::

To celebrate the founding of his 'design and culture label', Contra Paris, the Dream releases his first full length project since departing from Def Jam. Collabing with his usual partner, Tricky Stewart, here's a 7 track tape proving this man has niche for making good/relatable records; both lyrically and production wise. His sixth album, Fruition, is set to release later this year. Check it out::

Black | The Dream

I'm feeling real black right now...

When I heard this song last night after its release, I was a little ticked. The visual... extremely inspiring... and still I was ticked. Not at the Dream specifically, but at a combination of various songs and tweets I observed throughout the day. I went into this verbal stretch of 'Where was all this during black history month? where was the unity then?". Now I, for sure, am not one of those who feels black history or us as a people should be celebrated during one month and rather should be uplifted all year, however, I was ticked for many factors including it taking the NBA to ban an already known racist to have us 'raising fists' again. It's sad. Once my 'tickedness' simmered down, I was able to replay and enjoy this piece. No matter what month it is, I'm happy this was placed in The Dream's heart to write and create this. Regardless of what speared him to do so, I'm glad it happened. I'll probably be posting this song again later down the road. Everything about it is powerful. Watch below::
"Enough pain can make a whole race bitter..."

Pod Post Thursdays: Turnt | The Dream x Beyonce x 2 Chainz

#PodPostThursdays

Ever since I heard the snippet of this song weeks ago, I’ve been anticipating the full version.  To my excitement… it’s nothing short of incredible.  The production.. the vocals melted well together in the pot.   

Where Have You Been| The Dream x Kelly Rowland

You messin’ ‘round w/ them other girls..

Knowing damn well they ain’t got nothing on me

I’m messing round with them guys

Knowin damn well they ain’t got nothing on you…

 

Another new track from The Dream’s upcoming, IV Play.  I haven’t heard a track yet that I don’t like.. this album is definitely going to be a hot one.

I’m just saying..

I don’t wanna lose a second with you..

Cause baby you make me feel alive…

  

I love this “Falsetto Pt. 2” song.  It’s so sexy.. and the video makes it even better.  

 Check it out:

 

Dirty Laundry| Kelly Rowland

While my sister was on stage,  killin it like a motherfxcka…

I was enraged, feeling it like a motherfxcka….

I meant to post this the other day.

  An interesting one from Kelly… where she airs out her jealousy of Beyonce’s success along with her abusive relationship with Cudda Love that took her world for a turn.  However… what’s odd is that The Dream wrote this song for her.  It’s so personal.. but she didn’t write it.  I wonder how that went down.  Did she tell him stories and he composed it into a song?  Hmm.  Either way, the buzz on this is tremendous.  Everyone loves controversy.  Look at what numbers Usher’s “Confessions” song/album did.  Watch what this one unfolds..

High Art| The Dream x Jay-Z

I’m tired of talkin bout it…

Let’s do it…

As promised, Terius delivers a new track from his upcoming album IV Play this afternoon ..featuring none other than the incredible Hov.

The Dream delivers the title track from his upcoming album, IV Play, and I must say I am really feeling this one.  I think it’s safe for me to call this “Falsetto 2013”…

The DJ’s calling you to the stage…

The post for this video was originally on 11/13/2012.  However, it never made it to airwaves because the video was stripped from the net within hours.  It's officially now officially released in full.
The beginning of this video intrigued me alone.  Nice story line.    I’m sure several can relate.  Check it out:

Video: Dope B---h| The Dream x Pusha T

I was a little upset to find that him and Stalley had a free show this weekend in DC!  I missed it all.  Any who, I’m not really a “fan” of this guy… but this song has grew on me!  The video is cool.  Check it out:

Dope Bxtch| The Dream x Pusha T

 

This def. sounds like a vintage N.E.R.D. track.
