Nearly two decades after redefining contemporary R&B with his landmark debut Love/Hate, Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter and producer The-Dream returns with its highly anticipated sequel, Love/Hate II. Released on July 10 via Dreamboy Records/Republic Records, the 17-track project marks his first major-label studio album in more than a decade and reunites fans with the signature sound that helped shape a generation of R&B.

Love/Hate II features an impressive lineup of guest appearances, including Usher, T.I., Pusha T, Swizz Beatz, Kelly Rowland and Rick Ross. The album is led by standout tracks such as “Bring That Body,” “Tampa” featuring Usher, and “24/7,” while exploring themes of love, relationships and personal growth through a more mature perspective.

Keeping the momentum going, The-Dream released the official music video for “24/7” on July 28, giving fans a new visual companion to one of the album’s standout tracks and continuing the rollout for what has become one of 2026’s most talked-about R&B releases.
