Rap-Up.com || Video: The-Dream Convinces Kim Kardashian to Make Music

Kim Kardashian was unsure of foraying into music, but thanks to The-Dream, she got the confidence boost she needed. On last night’s episode of “Kourtney & Kim Take New York,” the curvaceous reality star was seen meeting with the “Umbrella” hitmaker in the studio.

When she expressed concern over how people would perceive her as a singer, Dream assured her, “For me, this is what I do. I can’t have you being embarrassed ’cause that would reflect on me and I’d look like an idiot.”

Kim admitted that she had no experience singing and was doing this for fun. “I’m not Beyoncé, I’m not like Celine Dion, I’m well aware of that. I just wanna have fun, like I don’t want to make a fool of myself,” she said, asking the producer, “What if this is so bad we just won’t do anything with it?” to which he responded, “If it’s so bad, I’ma leak it.”

The result of their collaboration, “Jam (Turn It Up),” was released on iTunes last week. Fifty percent of proceeds benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

I give them respect for giving the proceeds to charity. That’s the only thing I have to say about this post.

And the other 50% of the proceeds go to the victims of her music. Just kidding – I don’t like her and I won’t listen to her music but I think that it’s good to come out of the gate being honest about her abilities/motivations – there are too many popular artists right now who the same thing could be said of them (about their “talent”) but they don’t realize it themselves. Points to her for that, and for donating to charity. I’ve never watched anything of hers or even heard her talk so I’m wondering if it’s normal for her to be so dark. Her skintone looks different from pictures I’ve seen of her.

LOL, what is this world coming to? If Kim knows she CAN’T SING, then why sing??? I know she’s super rich and she can just throw her money around like it’s nothing but come on…she’ll probably need it some day. The song is a smoldering HOT MESS.

@carl, I KNOW RIGHT! WTF?! SHE IS NOT TALENTED. That’s the problem of the industry, it’s so easy to get in. The more untalented you are, the easier it is to make hits & have a long career.

@DJ PHRESH,

I agree and everything, but they both got a lot of money, she seems not to have anything better to do. Apparently neither of them have any shame..

Man just watching this clip makes me cringe cuz the song :-|

I guess if they didn’t have any standards for the song then we dont have to hold it up to high expectations, i mean for real tho its Kim K… no talent, no work ethic, and a slut… you can dance to it. but its not a song to be proud of… now ON THE FLOOR is a song to be proud of!

Remember when the Dream was talkin’ about how his song, “Walking On The Moon” or some shit, was gonna be bigger than Thriller. So there’s OBVIOUSLY a history of mental illness.
