(en) Dreams – trzeci oficjalny (a czwarty w ogóle) singel amerykańskiego rapera The Game z płyty The Documentary. Producentem jest Kanye West, a samplem utworu jest „No Money Down” . Piosenka jest zadedykowana Yetunde Price (starszej siostrze tenisistek Sereny i Venus Williams), która zginęła 14 września 2003 w Compton. Siostry Williams pochodziły z Compton, tak samo jak raper. Remix utworu został wydany w mikstejpie The Game’a, You Know What It Is Vol. 3. Jest to mix pomiędzy „Dreams” oraz „A Dream”. W Dreams, The Game nawiązuje do wielu znanych ludzi i albumów, takich jak: * 2001 * 50 Cent * Aaliyah * Aftermath Entertainment * All Eyez on Me * * DJ Clue * DJ Whoo Kid * Doggystyle * Dr. Dre * Eazy-E * Eminem * Marshall Mathers * * Huey Newton * Jam Master Jay * Jezus * (utwór) The Notorious B.I.G. * Kanye West * * Left Eye * LL Cool J * * Martin Luther King * Marvin Gaye * * Mýa * Nas – pod koniec drugiego wersu piosenki The Game rapuje: „...they say sleep is the cousin of death...” Jest to nawiązanie do piosenki Nasa „N.Y. State of Mind”, z albumu „Illmatic." * Ready to Die * Reasonable Doubt * Ronald Reagan * Serena Williams * Snoop Dogg * The Source * Stevie Wonder * Nigga With An Attitude Vol. 1 * 2Pac * Venus Williams * * Vivica A. Fox * Whitney Houston * (pl) «Dreams» — це пісня американського реп-виконавця West Coas хіп-хопу The Game'а, четвертий офіційний синґл з його дебютного альбому The Documentary. Продюсером треку виступив Каньє Вест, використавши сепл «No Money Down» соул-виконавця . Пісня є триб'ютом до (зведеної сестри зірок тенісу Серени та Венери Вільямс), яку було застрелено 14 вересня 2003 року. Сестри Вільямс родом із того ж міста, що й The Game — що у Каліфорнії. Крім того пісня відома деякими неточностями у ліриці: «Я прокинувся з тієї коми 2001, саме в той час, коли Dre випустив 2001» (I woke up from that coma 2001, about the same time Dre dropped 2001). Це неправильне порівняння оскільки альбом Dr.Dre насправді вийшов 1999 року. Пісня посіла 16-те місце About.com's Best Hip-Hop Songs of 2005. R&B співачка та актриса з'явилася у відео до цього треку. Пісні не вдалося повторити успіх попередніх двох синґлів у чарті, вона досягла 32-ї позиції у Billboard Hot 100 та 12-ого рядка у Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. Хоча синґл був комерційно успішним у Великій Британії, посівши 8 місце у чарті UK Singles Chart. (uk) |
