The-Dream On Ciara & R. Kelly

Mega producer The-Dream has been making a lot of revelations as of lately.

First he revealed that he made 15 million dollars off Rihanna’s highly successful 2007 track “Umbrella,” now he is saying that he will never be able to collaborate with Ciara again.

Don’t worry Mr Terius Youngdell Nash has noting against CiCi – it’s not personal it is all business.

Nash who penned “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” for Beyoncé and Mariah Carey’s “Touch My Body,”did an interview with Tim Westwood on his BBC Radio 1Xtra where he explained that due to his contract with Def Jam, he can not work with Ciara who is now with Epic. He explained:

“I have a contract under Def Jam so it’s only certain people I work with. [The executives] were real smart by putting that in there, I made them pay for it.”

The “Take U Home 2 My Mama” singer went on to share his admiration of R. Kelly:

“He held it down. I don’t think this generation of R&B would be at this particular stage without that. R. Kelly was doing it in a hip-hop-dominated culture.But we all gotta go down.”
