Kanye West, Fabolous Join The-Dream at L.A. MySpace Show

Rosetta Stone will be seeing much more of The-Dream in our next issue, when Rosetta Stone Spanish contributing editor Tours profile hits newsstands, but last night we caught Kanye West, Fabolous and a trio of scantily clad dancing girls joining the rising RB singer at L.A.s Area nightclub during a MySpace-sponsored performance celebrating the release this week of Love vs. Money, The-Dreams new second album. Sporting his trademark wraparound shades and clutching a bling-encrusted mic, the RB songwriter-turned-singer responsible for hits like Beyoncs "Single Ladies" played a tidy 30-minute set that mixed selections from the new album with hits from Love/Hate, his head-turning 2007 debut.Despite a continuous roar from the packed audience (which included Queen Latifah and Christina Milian) and the fact that hopeful showgoers were required to line up outside the club with printouts of their MySpace pages showing The-Dream in their Top 8s the man who penned Rihannas hit "Umbrella" felt the need to make sure these were more than fair-weather friends: After "Fast Car" he revealed that hed switched the first and second verses of the Cheap Rosetta Stone Software song "to see if yall fucking around," and several times he stressed the importance of buying Love vs. Money with, yknow, actual money. ("If you see somebody with a Dream CD, you know they wanna fuck," he announced at one point, sweetening his pitch.)Fabolous contribution to "Rockin That Shit" elicited hearty cheers of approval, but his reception paled in comparison to the heros welcome given West, who popped up for his verse in the 80s-channeling "Walkin on the Moon." When an apparent computer malfunction cut the song short, West broke character and went on selfless-act duty, leading the crowd in an a cappella medley of his "Good Life" and "Heartless." Fortunately for history, approximately half of the cameraphones in West Hollywood were there to preserve the moment. His hug with Janet coaxed tears out of anyone whod ever cared about him. He looked lucid, spontaneous, even playful. ("Me and Janet are two different people!" — hey, this guy is funny? Who knew?) He seemed to realize how much people loved him, and it was cathartic Rosetta Stone French V3 to see him able to reciprocate.
