| Why I'm punishing
myself to such torture is beyond me, but I've decided to take a bullet for the betterment
of GYEAH.COM and review Dream's "It was all a dream". Is Puff's next group worth
more than one single?It Was All A Dream(Intro) Um...alot of computer generated voices on here. Naming off the
girls of the group. Nothing special.
$.05
He Loves U Now First single, sadly this thing is very addictive. On this track,
the girls talk about how a girl can try to get their man all they want, but his heart
belongs to him. VERY pop-esque..I mean they do Nsync's "Bye Bye Bye" moves in
their video. I guess Puff has told Dream its ok to plagarize.
"No chains to unlock, so free to do what he wants. He's into what he's got. He loves
me, he loves u not."

In My
Dreams Damn
it, I was hoping to get through this album WITHOUT hearing Puffy. Oh well. This beat is
kinda wet. On this track, these girls talk about how the perfect male/relationship happens
in their dreams. I wish the hook and the beat matched in their iconess.
$.75
This Is
Me On
this track, the girls talking about how they aren't like some boys last ex. Catchy, but
more typical up beat pop.
"That was her, this is me. We're different as can be, she and I are nothing a like.
You're confusing day with night."
$1.00
I Don't
Like Anyone Um..no.
This track blows. Hard. Like if Ricky Martin and Nelly got together to create a track.
This is like the Spice Girls came to do a reunion track. On here, the girls talk about how
they don't like anyone as much as they do you (boy).
$.00
Reality (Interlude) Three
of the girls talk to one girl about how big of a dumb ass she is for believing her
boyfriend's lies.
$.00
Pain Well, this proves
the point that no matter what Puff does...he has to sample. May he burn in an eternal
un-original hell. Anyway, this track is the follow up to the previous interlude about how
the lying boyfriend brings pain, and how they move on. This track is a little slower, but
seeing as how these girls don't really sing...it's not good. Oh yeah, one of the girls try
a wack rap...I piss.
$.10
When I
Get There This
song is more R&B oriented than any other track so far. A little more laid back, and
suits these girls talents more. A lyrically fast (a la Beyonce of Destiny's Child) over a
laid back beat. Rather enjoyable.
"I don't know where I'm going, but I'm going, and I'll know it when I get
there."
$2.00
What We
Gonna Do About Us I was confused
by the original beat of this track, I wasn't sure rather I liked it or not...then the
vocals came in and I realized I didn't. By this point in the album, you realize that Dream
falls under the catergory of people who lack serious vocal ability. This track ask the
boys, what are we gonna do about us...they need to ask what they're going to do about
their vocals.
$.10
Jordan (Interlude) Hehe..I
get a kick out of this one. All four of the girls are getting played by one guy, and
leaving messages on his machine. Funny ish. Then one of the girl calls back, and tells him
that he can't play all of them. Funny, cause I thought that's what he was doing.
$.50
Mr.
Telephone GOD...I
WANT PUFF'S LIFE NOW!!!! Another sampled track, and its worst than the original. This
track really shows that these girls can't sing.
$.00
Angel Inside Yes, I was looking foward
to hearing Puff in the background going "Come On" and "Bad Boy".
NOT!!! This is an r&b-esque track. Kinda futuristic...but I don't like many songs
where the "singers" sing by speaking the words to the beat.
$.10
Do You Wanna
Dance? This wouldn't be a Bad Boy
album if they didn't have a track that asked the title's question. This song is pretty
self explantory, and follows the pattern of most songs on this album.
$.00
Miss
You This song is a slow track to
show off these girls vocal talents, but seeing as how they have none it instead shows how
damn annoying these girls voices really are.
"I miss you like crazy, I miss you being my baby. Tell me when you're coming back
home."
$.05
Our
Prayer (Interlude) The
girls give their prayers and thanks to God. Heh, after hearing this I need to have a few
words with God myself.
$.05
How Long Two back to back slow
tracks? PUFF THESE GIRLS CAN'T SING!!! On this track, the girls how long will it take them
to fall in love...its a pretty song..probably would be even prettier had the people
signing it had talent.
$.20
He Loves U Not (Remix) -This is the NON-mtv version
of this track, for Urban Radio stations only. Sad that Puff is so hard pressed to get
these girls out there he has to make a pop version, and an r&b version instead of
picking one genre and running with it. This beat is pretty hot, and the song was already
sadly addicitve, but no originality and Puff's annoyance on this track hinder it some.
$1.00
After hearing this entire album, it's safe to say
that buying the singles that are released are your best bet. Otherwise you're going to be
buying a cd that you listen to once all the way through, and then listening to only a few
more times until those two songs you bough the entire cd for are outdated.
Album worth: $7.20
