According to New York's Village Voice, the R&B singer recently landed
the Executive Vice President position over at Island Def Jam. He
apparently announced the news on his Twitter page (@OfficialDream).
"I wanna Thank everyone at Island Records/DefJam for their faith in
me and making me Executive Vice President of Island Records,"
The-Dream wrote. "Thank you to my team. My manager Mark Stewart and
my attorney Aaron Rosenberg for getting this first step of a goal
accomplished. Thanks to Judy. Thank you to my partner Tricky Stewart
and the RadioKilla and RedZone Staff. LA Reid, Karen Kwak, Steve Bartels,
Joe Barino. Steve Gotlieb and thank you, Universal Chairman, Doug Morris.
"I look forward to the challenge of rebuilding music for not only Island
Records, but for Universal Records as a whole. Today I'm humbled and blessed.
Terius 'The-Dream'."
There's been rumors about retirement talk from the singer as of late.
Could this be one step closer to that?
