Talk:Love/Hate (The-Dream album)

Genre
Hip-Hop I would say is part of the genre of this album --Louis Taylor (talk) 03:03, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Hip hop music is defined by rapping, DJing, sampling, scratching and beatboxing, none of which r on the album, w/exception of first track w/a rap. It is not a primary/prominant genre of the album. Dan56 (talk) 04:32, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Not really, some songs The-Dream raps, e.g she needs my love and ditch that, but its defenatly an urban album--Louis Taylor (talk) 23:12, 26 February 2010 (UTC)


 * He slows down his singing into a slow spoken word style on those two songs, but singing is prominant and those are only two songs w/minimal sung rhythmic style raps. So, the first track is the one hip/R&B song, while some others contain minimal hip hop elements. According to the wikipedia article, Contemporary R&B draws on hip hop elements such as flow and beats, similar to the album, but it is still R&B. "Urban" constitutes a radio format, which plays hiphop, dance, R&B-oriented music that is popular in urban areas. Dan56 (talk) 23:54, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Im pretty sure he sampled somthing on a few tracks--Louis Taylor (talk) 21:38, 12 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Pretty sure? Can u cite that? Regardless, it is not primary, and whatever its influence or incorporation on the album is, that is covered by "R&B" as in the previous paragraph on this discussion. Dan56 (talk) 21:58, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

The song structure/composition on the album is pop and R&B, as is its sound. Critics of the album have acknowledged it as R&B/pop as well. Dan56 (talk) 17:50, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

Love Hate = correct title
This is not an arguable issue, the facts are clearly in place. See his OFFICIAL MySpace and his OFFICIAL Def Jam page and it clearly says LOVE HATE... Even Amazon uses the title (conjoining the two).

MySpace here Def Jam here Amazon here (uses the words altogether, but still says Love Hate nevertheless)

If the reverts continue, you will be reported for vandalism. The title was originally Love Me All Summer, Hate Me All Winter, but was obviously changed due to length and because it's the general meaning behind the title (hence why it appears on the cover but LOVE HATE are the large words...). --Ayoleftyz (talk) 21:12, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * The page should stay at the title Love Hate. There are many reliable sources shown above which clearly show that this is the correct title. If anybody is going to move this page they must have a valid reason, backed up by reliable sources, before doing so. --  ¤ The-G-Unit-฿oss ¤   22:36, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * OK, I would suggest that both of you try to establish a consensus here about what link should be displayed rather than continually reverting each others edits. Maybe you should both take a break from editing this article? Thanks --  ¤ The-G-Unit-฿oss ¤   16:14, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
