New Song: The Dream – ‘My Love (ft. Mariah Carey)’

As singer/songwriter The Dream preps his sophomore effort ‘Love & Money’ for a February 17th release, one of the album’s joint 1st singles, the Mariah Carey assisted ‘My Love’ surfaced within the hour. The easy on the ear mid-tempo is filled with enough hooks and all-round catchiness to have you humming/singing along before the song fades out.

Mariah’s feature works too; the rasp and hoarseness that is Mimi’s 2009 ‘voice’ (which is becoming increasingly obvious on record now) actually actually compliments The Dream’s vocal rather well. Her belting parts, for all the critique levelled against her current vocal state, shows exactly why she is still one the premier voices of our time. Great track.

Hit or Miss?

    I’M FEELING IT. GO MARIAH I HAPPY TO SEE SHE IS STILL DOING IT.

  • sam, you are the master of backhanded compliments. you cannot say something positive about mariah without saying something negative right before or right after. nice. *rolls eyes*

  • Casual Mariah fan here. I like how the hardcore Mariah fans always say everything is fire when in reality it’s like everything else on the charts at the moment. This sounds like standard issue mixtape and radio material, guys. Mariah isn’t even in it that much, she’s a background singer.

  • not bad

  • I love it! Mariah sounds great.. even though it seemed like her belting part came too early lol.. yeah, you can really hear that deterioration/rasp now. They pretty much kept it out of E=MC^2

  • It’a good enough for a hit. Maria sounds cool on it, so I’ll give it a chance.

  • Mariah is a great hook artist lately! I’m not really sure if that’s a great thing. But this song is fire! So get it Mimi!

  • Nothing special from a 1st listen…

    But it is kinda radio friendly.

  • http://www.MeetTheFamous.com has some amaaaazing Mariah Carey photos.

  • I like this. Hope this will be a hit and e=mc2 will be re-released and DROP MIGRATE FOR HEAVENS SAKE MARIAH!!!!

  • i’m pissed the record label didn’t release “Migrate” as the single

    Mariah is here to stay for good, she ain’t goin nowhere!!!

  • the dream is 1 UGLY ASS MAN!!- radio killa is gettin old but mariah was great. the dream sounds the exactly the same on every record he has absoulotely no range at all.

    list best Vocalist ever from best to least best: beyonce, alexandrai burke, Mariah.

  • Such a cute song! Very catchy!

  • “Migrate,” was suppose to be the 4th single at a time… But then it was never made official and ended up turnign into “I Stay In Love,” which they should have known wouldn’t become a “We Belong Together 2008.” That was dumb on their part!

    **CHECK IT OUT

  • THE DREAM DOESN’T HAVE ANY RANGE…

    HE DOES SOUND THE SAME ON EVERY SONG… thanks for pointing that out!

  • I love the track, I don’t know if it will be a hit or anything… the dream has no range true, he sings high all the time lol anyway good track, I’m feeling MC’s parts

  • sam why did you copy and paste ur post from this site
    http://www.generation-hiphop.com/breaking-news/new-song-the-dream-my-love-ft-mariah-carey/
    wtf be original

  • love the song

  • Go Mimi, she kills it on the belting!!!

  • @ 3:37

    YOU ARE SO RIGHT….

    You almost gave her a compliment Sam…Almost LOL

    and to the person who says Mariah fans think everything she does is fire…

    IT IS DAMNIT! LOL

    If you had that voice….everything you did was fire too…hate it or love it, Mariah’s longevity is for a reason. She writes her own music and even though she has her moments where her voice is raspy and whateva, the girl can still sing!

    and I agree…Migrate should have been the 2nd single! Not even the 4th LOL the 2nd! Bye Bye was a mistake, Loving you long time was a mistake and I stay in love sure was a mistake LOL WHYY MARIAH!

  • OMG… I like it very much…..

  • It’s aiight

  • origdjeh1 on youtube. Don’t give up!

  • This song is very catchy indeed!!! I hope it does well when it comes out. :)

    And the singles of "E=MC2" the way I would have put them out:

    1. "Touch My Body" – Great, it did what it had to do.
    2. "Migrate" – Could've been the 1st, and should've been the 2nd single!
    3. "I Stay In Love" – Really, it is a great song but it was not in the right place…
    Then come:
    4. "Side Effects" &
    5. "For The Record"…

    I hope, like somebody else above me said, that there would be a re-release of the album and it would have some new hit tracks in it… We'll see… :)

  • just an ok song

  • Wow. This song is hot. This will give Mimi her 19th. hehe. Yeah

  • It was ok the 1st time, then good the 2nd time i listened to it. I don’t think is great, just good. I think this would be a good summer song.

  • BTW, the audio quality here is very poor (raspy and hoarse) so you should try to find and hear the song somewhere else so that you could get the full impression of it.

  • At first I did not know what to expect. But honestly I have to say I am in love with this track. MC and Dream compliment each other well here.

  • HHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTT

    Go Mariah

  • Mariah you are the best!! and I like The dream voice. It’s a Hot Hit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
