Much to the chagrin of his record label, singer The-Dream, will be giving a brand new album away this month via internet download.
The album will be released under his birth name Terius Nash, he announced yesterday on his twitter account.
"LP4 is Underway I THE-DREAM have decided to go forward with "Diary Of A Madman" LP it almost didnt happen," he wrote. "So ill be in my DefJam uniform for at least one More Season! Also a free 10 song Internet album will be released by Aug 31st. LP 4 because of the Contract negotiations does not have a date, but it will be released 4th quarter but i will give a 10 song Internet LP while you guys wait!!!!"
The 34-year old hitmaker said Def Jam is not at all happy that he's giving away free music, but that's not going to stop him. He also added that the free LP is a very personal project for him and is a way of giving back to his fans.
"The Internet LP is entitled '1977' and will be released under my real name Terius Nash not The-Dream. Shooting Videos for 1977 all this week," he wrote. The "TERIUS NASH EST. 1977" is very personal and to my Fans! BTW NO ONE AT DEFJAM IS HAPPY ABOUT A FREE ALBUM LOL.... they are trying to stop it!"
Hey, you can't argue with free music. Props to The-Dream.
