nivea ft the dream - okay (red cup remix)

HAD TO DO A REMIX FOR THE WESTSIDE, PIMP! says the dream - but really it was for nivea. if you havent heard this song, shame on you for not buying niveas album, and shame on the radio for not playing it. when i first saw it i thought, what kind of a rap name is 'the dream'? he sounds about 15 yrs old/ or a woman, like lil boosie's goodie 2 shoes younger brother (despite his "a-town killas in the black chinchillas" talk) or maybe niveas grandmother but he is actually niveas new HUSBAND which explains why he chants her name ok remix nivea nivea nivea so infatuatedly at the end of his verse. AND he wrote the original "okay" which sounds like wedding on troll mountain AND he produced this remix: the beat shows his true love for her- nivea sings about her drink turning from blue into green (incredible!) - the beat has the same shimmering miragelike (incredible!) quality (i have probably listened to this song 1000 times and i still love it, because it is a mirage) and the melody is so so pretty. there are not many men i would consider good enough for nivea but i absolutely approve of this union! at the end he shouts out to youngbloodz, monica, tlc, so so def & ATL 4ever.
p.s. niveas daughter is named navy just like me!
