Figuratively speaking, Terius Nash has the stuff that dreams are made of. That’s because for nearly 10 years, the singer/songwriter/producer known as The-Dream has become a musical triple threat. And on the cusp of his sophomore release Love vs. Money, the Georgia native chopped it up with RapRadar about his new album, photographs, and how he and his main squeeze are laughing all the way to the bank.

Don’t really know why Q-Tip was the first rapper I decided to chop it up with for my new venture. It just clicked in my mind one day to do it and I hit him on Twitter and voila. I enjoyed his last album like most critics and I started to notice that no one had really ever interviewed him about the music in great detail. Here’s a guy who took damn near a decade to release his second solo album and I think this body of work deserves re-examination. So after a Martha Stewart appearance where his dog Monk pissed on the studio floor, The Abstract ambled over to the RR Mansion. Here’s Part 1 of all you ever need to know about The Renaissance. Cop the album cause he dropped it.
Are you satisfied with the response to The Renaissance?
Yeah, I
Listening to 'Sinners' is an almost physical experience. Rod Wave manages to weave with his voice, powerful and rich in nuances, and with the enveloping sounds a real atmosphere that captures you from the first notes. When he then switches to rap, his interpretation is so intense and heartfelt that it completely magnetizes you into the narration, taking you and dragging you into the song without you being able to resist. It's like being sucked into a vortex of emotions, an excellent representation of the depth and grip that this artist knows how to exercise.
