R&B: The-Dream feat. Pusha T – “Dope Chick”
August 26, 2012
When I heard the original version of this song when it was titled “Dope Bitch” I knew Atlanta R&B singer & songwriter The-Dream would have to go back & record a clean radio version of what is otherwise a really good song. Eventually the “Dope Chick” version followed to appease radio programmers who had their hands tied in supporting the song. When the original video of this song came out once again I imagined The-Dream going back to revamp the video because there was no way in hell television stations & media outlets like FUSE, BET, or MTV would play it due to the very strong drug images. Finally today we see Mr. Terius Nash aka The-Dream release a much cleaner version of his video for “Dope Chick” with less cocaine references & strong imagery. If anyone struggling with drug addiction saw the original video I’m positive they may have relapsed already. At least with this version we can just get high off the music. Maybe this was all a part of The-Dream’s marketing plan from the beginning. The-Dream’s long-awaited ‘The Love IV MMXII’ album is due out September 20th….

The-Dream – “Dope Beyatch” feat. Pusha-T (Video)

I wouldn’t be surprised if this video got run on BET, MTV, & VH1 with the title as it is & all the drug & gun references. I still prefer the radio playable “Dope Chick” version to this song. I don’t mind it in some hip hop I listen to, but I don’t like my R&B music too gangsta. I like an element of class & sophistication if I want to get ‘gangsta’ with the R&B. When I want to listen to some real ‘Gangsta R&B’ music I prefer to listen to joints like THIS, and THIS, & THIS. But I digress…
