The-Dream will be touring in support of his sophomore album, "Love
Vs. Money" (Radio Killa/Def Jam) which peaked at No. 1 on
Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart with 331,000 units

The first two singles off "Love Vs. Money," "Rockin' That Thang"
and "My Love," featuring Mariah Carey, reached No. 3 and No. 36 on
the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop songs chart, respectively. The-Dream also
