The-Dream

Contemporary R&B
Contemporary R&BHip hopHouse

The-Dream is a Contemporary R&B and Hip hop act. Their catalogue also touches House. Their sound grew out of Kashif, Nina Sky, Fabolous, Jamie Foxx and Gym Class Heroes. Those roots explain a lot about how The-Dream arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Pleasure P, Usher, Omarion, Bobby V and Ne-Yo, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Pusha T, Snoop Dogg, Donald Glover, Frank Ocean and Yeezus, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 48 connections around The-Dream, reaching back through Kashif and forward to Pusha T.
