YEs.. the planets have alined.. and THE DREAM and J HOLIDAY both have albums droppin on the same Tuesday... So its like Me Vs Gerald.. We know Ima win tho right?? haaa..
But yeah... this is happening... so I had to do a review..
If i knew how to do graphis i would make it like a boxing match and make a poster of both of them.. but im not that gifted just yet..
But im happy for RnB.. I been filled with good RnB from Musiq and Bobby V and these two CDs are the shit too.. So let me show u how these two "put it down, put it down, put it down, put it down"...

J Holiday - Round 2
So im thinking the title is a reference to a lyric in "Bed"... when he says that repeatedly.. and it just makes since for it bein his second cd.. Im not really a fan of his, for some reason, so I was hesitant on listenin to the whole body of work.. but i did it.. just for u...
1. Intro
This is just him singin a song to a live audience with the lyrics bein titles of his songs that he came with.. pretty slick with the word play forreal..
2. Its Yours
This sound like a song that Lloyd would sing... it got the nice strong beat that would remind u of Lloyds "Street Love" or Ciaras "Promise".. its really nice.. this will def make it to a DJDURL mixtape.. i give this the stamp.. He speaks on how he cant get enough of his lady.. and how his bosy is hers...
3. Fall
I like the concept.. sometimes you try your hardest not to fall for someone.. but you cant always help it.. they end up bein on your mind when you wake.. and you want to see them all the time.. she wasnt supposed to be nothin but another chick.. this song takes u along the mental ride he is going through..
4. Don't Go
Great song.. he speaks on how life just aint life when she aint around.. so he dont want her to leave.. he worries that this might be the last time she might leave.. so he would let her go.. and this is his plea for her to stay.. "DONT GO.. you make living dificult when youre not here with me"... DEEP..
5. Wrong Lover ft Rick Ross..
Im really feeling this concept.. its about a how chicks seem to rush love.. and choose someone too quick.. but sometimes a man wants what he had back.. so this song breaks down his scenario of seein a chick he once had that dipped on him too quick.. HE seems her at the club and lets her know that she chose the "wrong lover".. Rick Ross adds more "nigga-dom" to this.. his story is of his chick that left him for a football player bc of the fast money, now dude is injured, not makin money like he is, so he tryna get her back..
6. Run Into My Arms
This is him just lettin his gurl know that she aint gotta worry about nothin. Anything needed will be taken care of by her protector, him.. This is a goood ass song.. I can see myself singing this one..
7. Sing 2 U
This is a definite must listen.. He started off on some H-Town type shit.. then flips it to some old skool name droppin on how he wants to sing to her.. listenin to this, this man must have a good ass chick close to him for inspiration.. cuz damn, he tryna be the man on this whole album.. i need that.. this is a great song.. he has references to H Town, Marvin Gaye, Jodeci, and R Kelly.. it dont get too much sexier, right ladies?
8. Lights Go Out
This shit right here.. this is on some DJDURL - Bedtime type shit.. he speaks on a chick that he been wanting, that finally seen things his way on hookin up.. and he speaks on how she better wait til "the lights go out".. its gonna be something.. i can def agree.. cuz I aint gonna tell you nothin about whats gonna happen, im just tell you to wait til them lights go out.. no more talking, no more teasing... he said it right on this one..
9 Make That Sound
You can tell by the title what this is about.. he speaks on how his neighbors is gonna hear her "Make that sound".. so his solution is to turn up the radio and TV so everyone wont have to hear... then she will be about to yell as loud as she wants..
10. Forever aint Enough
finally, a love song.. not just about sex.. this is about how his love would last so long that "forever aint enough". This is a pretty song ( I say that at the risk of sounding soft).. its sang really nice.. and it shows some good range..
11. Fly
Thought this one was about me off rip.. so I had to listen.. This is actually about letting someone go.. letting them "Fly" and hoping that they fly back.. sometimes you gotta do that.. This is deep though.. im really thinking he has a deep meaning to thing, like some type of story behind this one.. I like it..
12. Homeless
Touching song.. speaks on how anyone could be homeless.. and speaks on hard times for a few people.. he just brings awareness to a situation that effects people in different ways, everyday.. if it was you, what would you do? I cant imagine
13. I Tried
Came on on some rock and roll, guitar hero type shit.. Ok then, switch it up on them.. he speaks on how he works hard to make things work.. and she aint feelin it, or im.. and he just speaks on how much he tried.. his range is shown on this one...
Man.. after this one.. Im a fan.. he did is thing on ALL the tracks.. good content, range and just a good body or work.. I would def give this an 8 out of 10.. this exceeded my expectations..
On to the Dream

Man.. i been waiting so long for this one.. It was supposed to drop back in November/December.. then pushed back to Valentines day-ish.. and now set to fly out the shelves on March 10th next to J Holidays.. Theres been a few leaked songs, but I knew that the whole cd had to be listened to in whole, bc the last cd was all one cohesive blend of RnB and I knew this would be the same..
1. Intro
I couldnt tell what the noise is on this.. it sound like someone lifting weights.. it only last for like 6 seconds.. and then goes right into....
2. Rockin that Shit
We all know how this song gets down.. he goes too hard painting this picture for us.. Sometimes thats all you can say when u see a bad chick in a bad outfit, with a mean walk.. all you can say is "she rockin that shit"... and i think the cuss word was appropriate.. it makes it have a littl more meaning.. check for the remix video droppin soon too..
3. Walking on The Moon ft Kanye
He channels his inner Prince and MJ on this one.. he got his space-age, fast beat.. his background "wooo woo woooo".. and u could just picture this video having a lot of smoke and silver colors in it.. haaa.. but he speaking on how whatever she does, takes him outta this world, and has him "Walkin on the Moon".. Ye adds some good as lyrics, man I cant wait til he raps again.. he raps sorta like how he did on "Number 1".. he spits..
4. My Love ft Mariah Carey
This is his next single.. this is classic Dream, it make u rock and snap.. you def gonna nod your head on this one.. he speaks on who gurls in the background dont know shit about his love for his gurl.. man Mariah sounds good on this one.. I can wait til her next project, the dream is producing it.. so its gonna jump, flat out..
5. Put It Down
This some people fav song.. its a sexy sexy sexy song.. he speaks on different ways he plans to put it down.. repeatedly.. over and over again.. this reminds me of some ol R Kelly type shit.. sprinkled with the Dream.. sound like the Dream listened to 12 Play 4th Quarter... this couldda been on that..
6. Sweat It Out
This one is funny.. she tell her gurl she better go ahead and call her beautician right now before it goes down, cuz he bout to mess it up and they bout to "sweat it out"... man, I feel him tho.. how are we supposed to act when we see our chick get her hair done? This when she gonna look her best, and we gonna wanna jump right in.. "you shouldda got braids".. haa, he got that off..
7. Take Her Home To Mama
This is not really a good song to me.. its a lil too simple.. he couldda give this one away or something.. its a lil too repeatitive.. to the point of being annoying.. I like it til the chorus come up.. then thats where it goes down.. He sound like he was just playin around on some bored shit..
8. Love Vs. Money
I like how this just flow right in tho.. This song is the shit tho.. it hits hard with bass tho.. he speaks on how he had such a good thing.. but something came in between him and his lover.. he speaks on how him not being home and being in the club gave someone else a chance to come and replace him.. Money aint a match for love.. and he thought money was enough.. it aint..
9. Love Vs Money pt 2
He gets even deeper with the dubject on this one.. and lets you know.. when love is the problem.. cant nothin solve it.. this makes me really think back to those Nivea interviews that has been surfacing lately (See WSHH if you dont know).. he really had to get some shit off his chest about her on this one..
10. Fancy
This is my favorite song on this cd.. its simple.. and it builds up.. He speaks on how she wants someone who isnt plain, boring or weak.. she wants someone who's "fancy".. and he says.. thats him.. man.. this just has a good vibe to it to me.. and you gotta wait for that beat to drop at the 6:16 mark.. im was like DAMNNNN this nigga got that off.. this is goes right into... ..
11. Right SIde of Brain
HE shows us how we dont use logic when in love.. he speaks on how stupid we get when in love.. and how we let shit happen that we know good and got damn well shouldnt happen.. great concept.. this version sounds better thna the version I got a few months back..
12 Mr Yeah
I love this song.. he on some braggin shit.. he speaks on how he is better than the rest.. "cupid aint got shit on me"....how arrogant.. but whenever something happens.. she always runs back to Mr YEAH...
13. Kellys 12 Play
ok ok ok... this might be my favorite.. or tied with it.. he speaks on how when he need to get the mood right.. he goes straight for "Kellys 12 Play".. man this couldda been named after any of Kellys albums.. we all know that.. Ladies, dont let them play this in the club.. you gonna get your wrist grabbed, and some nigga gonna try to grind on you.. this one is SERIOUS.. and he speak on track 7 .. go head and research it.. he did his damn thing on this one.. BEDTIME worthy..
14 Let ME See Your Booty (Bonus Track)
This one has been leaked out for a minute.. and it got Lil Jon joinin in on Dreams love for the booties.. man thats why he is my nigga.. my chick gotta have one of those.. flat out.. the beat is jumpin.. def a club track too..
So after hearing this.. he is still my nigga.. he is really fast forward on this RnB shit.. this is one that youll prolly like more later than right now.. the whole CD goes together soooo well. its one whole story with all type of emotions and cuss word-laden rnb tracks..
These are both my niggas for these drops they just did.. so Im DEFINTILY gonna have to do a HOLIDAYDREAMIN mixtape.. its official.. I got too.. Ill prolly try to get it done in the next few days and play in on my PODCAST so be lookin out for the link on my facebook.. or keep checkin my imeem page.. imeem.com/djdurl
Shouts to Gerald..
