The-Dream has a lot of news to share today, April 14. He released the first of his two-part EP album Crown Jewel earlier today on iTunes and Spotify. The six-track EP Crown showed The-Dream's ability to adapt to the modern R&B climate with a mix of radio-leaning tracks and softer, more heartfelt tracks. He has unveiled the complete tracklist for the second part of the album, the Jewel EP, which will contain nine tracks and no listed features. The "That's My S**t" singer also shared the classy and simple album art for the complete LP. He has released the artwork and tracklist, which features T.I.
The-Dream spoke about the direction of each EP and how each will showcase different sides of his artistic abilities.
"Crown is more modern R&B, and Jewel will be more what you think of as my songwriter side, the songs I might have given to other artists before," The-Dream said about his upcoming EPs in a statement, via Rap Radar. "If you put me in a box, Jewel is more what you get when that box is open. But I'm not limited by any box I've been put in, every year I'm expanding and growing, and it makes for a more interesting plot."
Crown Jewel will be released July 10 with the six tracks from Crown and the nine additional songs from Jewel. If you pre-order the album now on iTunes, you will receive all six of the Crown EP tracks instantaneously. See the full album tracklist below.
