The-Dream Says He Received a $3 Million Advance For Writing "Umbrella"

That check over everything.

None

With the recent release of IV Play, which debuted this week with 22,559 sold, The-Dream stopped by Peter Rosenberg and Cipha Sound's Juan Epstein podcast for a long discussion about the music industry, as well as his publishing profits from co-writing Rihanna's 2007 hit "Umbrella."

With over 6.6. million in worldwide sales, not to mention a Grammy, The-Dream detailed why he considers "Umbrella" as the pinnacle of his financial opulence. And we don't blame him; he still hammers a cool $1.2 a year for his contributions on "Umbrella."
