Trey Songz – ‘Passion, Pain & Pleasure’ Cover

Published: Monday 2nd Aug 2010 by Sam

The official cover for Trey Songz‘s ‘Passion, Pain, & Pleasure’ LP was unveiled today. Preceded by the Nicki Minaj-assisted single ‘Bottoms Up’, the album hits stores on September 14th via Atlantic Records.

I see Mr Songz put down the baby oil and found his clothes this go round. Here’s hoping the album brings about a similar change (see: songs about more than just sex and less run-of-the-mill R&B).

    What in photoshop hell? Is this REALLY his cover? This looks like a picture he took on his cell phone and posted on Model Mayhem.

    I don’t like it. Trey, you need more people. Really , is anyobdy even checking for this album? Trey can’t hold a note to save his life. He doesn’t dance and s** was the only thing working for him but that too has become stale. *sigh*

    I can’t with Trigga. I am just waiting for him and Drake to get married and want this s*** forever man.

  3. greg g August 2, 2010

    LMAO at the first comment. woooow

    i like the cover though, but you can tell he is so in love with himself.

  4. ANDRE August 2, 2010

    Lmao @ First comment.

    September 14th is definitely too soon, it should be pushed back until top of 2011.

  5. Becca August 2, 2010

    When was trey at a car wash???

    and lmao @ sam dissing trey after that awkward interview. it’s not his fault he doesn’t want your number!

  6. BUTLER August 2, 2010

    I ENJOYED HIS ANICIPATION MIXTAPE ITS SOME HIS BEST IMO
    BUT I WAS DISAPPOINTED IN READY
    BUT I’M STILL LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS ALBUM
    I THINK HE DELIVERS UR GOOD OL GENERIC R&B N THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT
    UNTIL I GET A NEW JAGGED EDGE OR DONNEL JONES ALBUM I GUESS TREY WILL HAVE TO DO

  7. wootiehoo August 2, 2010

    BWAHAHA!

    this had better be a joke. because if not, somebody out there doesnt like you miss tremayne!

  8. kellyfan4life!!! August 2, 2010

    Are you serious? Why should he change from R&B? In all honesty he’s like the only guy out there who is actually doing R&B.

  9. mishka August 2, 2010

    Here are my thoughts:

    *The album is titled: Pasion, pain and Pleasure yet this cover and the lead single (i think) “Bottoms up” doesn’t express any of the three. It’s quite a “club” song (and I must say: Nicki completely outshined Trey on it)

    ** While the cover is okay for expressing passion and pain but it doesn’t go with the “pleasure” part. If they gonna keep it, maybe they should rename it “Passion & Pain”? The raw “s**” thing has to get lost, remember? Stick to innuendos like every does, Trigga.

    *** They could modify the cover: how about SWEAT running on TREY’s face instead of rain running on the window??? Sweat can serve as innuendo for passion, for pain and for pleasure!

    ****Usher had a quite similar album cover not so long ago…minus the girl whispering in his ear. Just sayin’

  10. KD August 2, 2010

    Why all the hate? Are you jealous of the fact that the guy looks better than all of you ugly bastards combined.

    HOT cover btw.

  11. mishka August 2, 2010

    By the way, releasing this album on 14th September (same day as Kanye ) is a complete s******.

  12. LuvMeDJ August 2, 2010

    I hope thats not the official cover…if so…I’m dissapointed.

  13. BeyonSLAY August 2, 2010

    His lips make me feel sick.

    I’m a straight female, HONEST. But something about them *pukes*

  20. Starr August 2, 2010

    like seriously u all ppl really need to stop hating on the dude….you can’t blame him if he thinks that he is it or not cause at some point everyone things that they are “IT” despite who they are. Anyway nothing is wrong with cover it looks awesome. And to the first comment “WWW.REGGIEISCRAZY.COM” get a life dude….people are checking for the album so don’t get it twisted and I think you need to go to voice training or something to find out wat signing is about cause apparently you doing know wat singing sounds like……..I bet you think that Rihanna can see. sigh!!!! Seems it is a waste of time trying to talk to you haters…..As Trey said ” HATE WILL GET YOU NOWHERE”

    THE COVER LOOKS AWESOME N HIS TRUE FANS WOULD BE LOOKING FORWARD TO 6TH AUGUST FOR HIS PASSION.PAIN & PLEASURE TOUR. AS WELL AS 14TH SEPTEMBER FOR THE ALBUM RELEASE. LOVE YA TREY!!!!

  21. GangsterA August 2, 2010

    UGLY ASS COVER AND WHATS WRONG WITH HIS FACE

  22. wtf August 2, 2010

    this cover is not impressive at all!!!!

  23. NICK August 2, 2010

  24. JT August 2, 2010

    i don’t see what’s so bad about it. You people really have too much time on your hands.

  25. FreshUrbanEnt August 2, 2010

  27. Tiff August 2, 2010

    DEAD at 1st comment!

    Trey…just give it up dude.

  28. The Last Song August 2, 2010

    The cover is not that enticing, it’s rather dreary…/

  29. imjustsaying August 2, 2010

    lmaoooooo I’m glad to know soon as I scrolled down everyone else was dying laughing at that first comment just as I was smutty hilarious. but for real as this link was loading I was thinking to myself how he’d “outdo” himself from the “ready” cover, lmao this ain’t it. miss me with the rain drips though

  30. Cookie August 2, 2010

    Sooooooo clearly there is way too much hate/opinion/blasphemy whateva goin on here. Trey and his team decide on what works for TREY, not you. I think the cover expresses everything in relation to the title. He appears to be looking out a window….and it’s raining. You can DEF experience PASSION and PLEASURE in the rain. And the PAIN is an every moment thing. So y not correlate that w/ the rain. If the man was naked, like in Ready, it would’ve been a “damn another shirtless pic”. Make up your mind ppl.

  31. imjustsaying August 2, 2010

    why is that horrible song “bottoms up” on an album with such a name as “pain pleasure …” whatever its called, i wont be scrolling up to find out. he’s a gimmick, h*** only like him because of his looks and sexual content. he has horrible stage presence too. that hip rolling and licking is a turn off (not that he turned me on to begin with)…. sammie and lloyd will kill this fool.

  32. imjustsaying August 2, 2010

    Cookie, i agree wth you! If he did another album cover with his shirt off, it would have been “oh thats another album with a shirt off, whats he thinking” lol but we need a little more than this. people have their opinions good and bad, gotta deal with it. he’s still a gimmick with no stage presence though

  33. HATERS, STAY MAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! August 2, 2010

    Why doesn’t Trey Songz just date & f*** himself. Seriously, this n**** think he’s so f***** hot. Trey, YOU ARE NOT DENZEL, YOU’RE NOT BLAIR UNDERWOOD, YOU’RE NOT BORIS KODJOE, NEED I GO ON???? You were a young scruffy ass boy with ratty cornrows a few years back and you were scrawny like an Ethiopian. Now you wanna act like you’re the finest black man to ever grace this Earth. N****, PLEASE!!! You won’t be seeing any of my money. You CAN’T sing, You CAN’T dance, YOU have NO stage presence and your SKANKY stans only like you because they think you’re fine. #ThatIsAll

  34. rated x August 2, 2010

    trey is not a bad singer, it just the gay vibe dude has in all his pics, thats suspects..

    now, whats wrong with the dude selling s** to sell an album, females have beeing doing it for years now, so s***..

    now, that cover screams GAY GAY GAY GAY.
    IM sorry trey stans, dude is gay..

  35. Blasian August 2, 2010

    I’m going to kick his ass for using a Myspace Photo lmao! Well thats what it look like LMAO!

    Who was the Photographer? A Kid? Waht in the Sams Hell

    NEXT NEXT NEXT NEXT NEXT NEX OH DID I SAY NEXT!

    @www.reggieiscrazy.com

    LMAO!

  36. BENJAMIN August 2, 2010

    Didn’t know Kanye was releasing an album on the same day, he basically is way in over his head. Don’t understand, out of all the artists out there who are really talented and get album pushbacks, he gets another release date barely a year after his last.

  37. Cookie August 2, 2010

    And Kanye’s date was pushed back.

  38. kurtisleofwight August 2, 2010

    trey songz is a laughing joke!!!!!!!!!!!!

  39. kurtisleofwight August 2, 2010

    the funniest thing is he actually beleives he is the best out there at the moment!

  40. RosaRubbel August 2, 2010

    I dislike ‘Bottoms Up’. The song is so annoying, I don’t even like Nicki’s part. I have never been a fan of him, but his last album had some nice cuts. I think the cover looks nice. Especially the raindrops-idea is very beautiful, as long as he doesn’t sing about s** practices 24/7. Gay or not. Trey achieved the most success during his more sexual influenced album, so why should he stop singing about it, when he was successful with it?

  41. JAZ0195 August 2, 2010

    umm it’s okay but i’m not fan of his so I want be buying.

    I’ll just be getting kanye’s album

  42. Nicole-TeamBREEZY***** August 2, 2010

    I thought i was the only one,his lips are just ewwwww(Not a good look the way he trys to make them poke out)

  43. Rebecca S. August 2, 2010

    Trey’s music is not that hot at all. How are you going to diss R.kelly when you took his whole style, and you cant write a song,hold a note, nor win a grammy. R.kelly is in his own league, writing and producing hits for himself , MJ, Whitney, Aaliyah, Ginuwine, Marques Houston,list goes on. They have to pay radio stations to give this guy a buzz.

  44. MzBLACKROSES August 2, 2010

    dis is a s*** cover… i like it

  45. ~TeAM WeeZY~ August 2, 2010

    If he’s gonna use this as his cover then he should rename the album because this photo looks so melancholy. I don’t think the cover and the album title fit together. Maybe he should just name the album “PAIN” because that’s what the cover looks like.

  46. Erika August 2, 2010

    all of you are some hating ass just can every one stop hating on Trigga he is doing his thing and is doing it very well!!!

  47. trey’s golden angel August 2, 2010

    I love it . i cant wait.
    but i see a couple haters on trey’s tip .
    it dont matter tho cause all yall was jumping to “Say Aah” & everything else .
    but its kool tho not tripping = )

  48. trey’s golden angel August 2, 2010

    & i just noticed that most of the hating is coming from the guys .
    is it because you know that he can take yo girl ?
    Trey helps yall out alot b/c what yall cant do in the bedroom , he picks yall slack up w/ his songs .

  49. JAZ0195 August 2, 2010

    @TREY’S GOLDEN ANGEL are you obsessed or something?

    I’m am a straight girl and I don’t like trey and most of the comments are just opinions calm down sweetie

  50. JAZ0195 August 2, 2010

    no not most of the comments are coming from guys they also come girls who don’t like him or don’t find him attractive

  51. Boricua August 2, 2010

    Whats with all the Trey reads? Is it because he shaded you when you had your interview spot? lool

  52. A August 2, 2010

    I see where they were going but NO. The shouldve had him in a steamy shower, showing a full body silhouette. Thats more represntative of Pain, Pleasure and passion.

  53. Badd August 2, 2010

    I didn’t think that Bottoms Up was a good song at all.
    Nicki didn’t add anything to it to me.
    But this cover is better than him having his
    shirt off…because I don’t think ppl would buy that.
    This seems like a serious album.
    If he had his shirt off it would just seem like a joke.
    This is kind of awkward as the album cover.
    But anywayss,, I just don’t see him going to far
    even with this one..because he just doesn’t have a
    large fan-base.

  54. Soulful Roses August 2, 2010

    Try again, Trigga..

  55. www.reggieiscrazy.com August 2, 2010

    Glad to see you guys agree with me. And to those who don’t, please excuse me for simply not giving a f***.

  56. Swtnythng August 2, 2010

  60. NUNYA August 3, 2010

    trey cant sing point blank. and he releasing this mess because he want to go gold again,LOL
    He cant even sell a million copies of that mess he released,LOL
    trey is not real R&B either. majority of the people who ride his nuts are young ass girls who dont pay real bills, only a dang on cell phone bill.
    trey wont last because hes gimmicky, he was at the right place at the right time.
    All trey do is take off the shirt and then you hear thirsty ass birds hollering.
    Sammie,Johnta Austin, Tyrese, Tank, Jaheim, Usher, R.Kelly are all real R&B singers and not this mess right here

  61. PLAIN AND SIMPLE August 3, 2010

    Just heard that Trey is going to tour with Moncia. I can’t!

  62. tanya August 3, 2010

  64. Pucci August 3, 2010

    lol, first comment was kinda HARSH!!!

    But i dont like the cover. It looks more like a single cover to me.

  65. Pucci August 3, 2010

    O & another thing, i dont know where ppl are getting this idea that he cant sing… He may sound a bit of key in a few of his performances, but that doesn’t make him a terrible singer. SINGERS ARE PPL AS WELL, THEY’RE NOT MACHINES.

  66. WENDY August 3, 2010

    @Tanya

    You are right I brought one of Trey’s song Say Ah and that was it. i really love that song

  67. Sam_shawty August 4, 2010

    Trey, U need to have a sit down with that MOTHERFACKIN ego of YOURS ..!!! U’re just gettin too much these days. Im honestly dissappointed with u and that damn ugly album cover.

    He used to be the S*** back in the days, but now all he does is sell s**. trust me i wouldnt be surprise at all if i ever found out that He’s Gay !

    Go back to yo momma dude so she can knock some sense into that effin EGO of yours!! I aint no hater, but trey needs to pull his motherfuckin socks up and start makin some REAL rbn tunes

  68. ladixdcr August 6, 2010

    I REALLY DO NOT KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE COMMENTING
    HAVE ACTUALLY HEARD TREY SING LIVE AND IN PERSON. HE CAN DO MORE THAN HOLD A NOTE!!! NOW I AM AN OLD SCHOOL R&B LOVER AND TREY CAN ACTUALLY DO IT. NOW HE MAY HAVE SOME SONGS THAT PEOPLE THINK ARE GIMMICKY OR ONLY ALL ABOUT S** AND SOME OF YOU MAKE THINK THAT’S BULL. THAT DOES NOT DETRACT FROM HIS TALENT. SEE PEOPLE FORGET THAT EVERYONE IN THE BUSINESS HAS A GIMMICK OR SOMETHING TO MAKE THEM SELL. AND I MEAN EVERYONE. ONE PERSONHE WAS RIGHT THAT HE WAS SCRAWNY WITH CORNROWS BEFORE AND YOU KNOW WHAT NOT MANY PEOPLE TOOK HIM SERIOUSLY. EVEN THOUGH HIS FIRST ALBUM WAS ALMOST ALL R&B WITHOUT A LOT OF SEXUAL CONTENT. HE ACTUALLY STARTED WITH AN OLDER FAN BASE BECAUSE OF THAT ALBUM IT WAS NOT UNTIL HIS SECOND ALBUM WHERE HE DECIDED TO BE MORE SEXUALLY EXPLICIT. DO SOME HOMEWORK ON AN ARTIST BEFORE YOU COMMENT. HE IS STILL NEW TO THE WHOLE SHEBANG AND STAGE PERFORMANCE AND ALL OF THAT WILL IMPROVE. NO ONE IS PERFECT ON THEIR FIRST REAL CONCERT EXPERIENCES. I AM AN AVID CONCERT ATTENDEE AND EVEN THE GREATS HAVE HAD SOME AWFUL PERFORMANCE TIMES. THE COCKINESS AND CONFIDENCE HE HAS BEGUN TO EXUDE IS JUST THE SAME AS EVERY OTHER MALE R&B ARTISTS WHEN THEY REALIZED THEY WERE GETTING SOMEWHERE. THE COVER IS SIMPLE AND TO THE POINT, WHICH IS AS IT SHOULD BE. NO GIMMICKS

  70. Chris August 7, 2010

    its obvious there are alot of haters and people who dont understand everything. there has to be a reason for the name of the album which the songs on the album should explain. and the album cover is simple but its okay. what you want him to be in bed with a girl half naked on the cover.

  71. J-b August 7, 2010

    Who gives a f*** about the cover! This guy is in a different league! Who cares if he hasn’t won a grammy! I’ve seen him twice now when he’s been to the uk and he’s different gravy! U yanks ain’t got a f****** clue!!!! Peace!!!

  72. Ermm August 19, 2010

    Allow All U Haterz Man Da Guy Is Tryin Cut Him Sum Slack. Im 4rm Da UK N Trey Has Nuff Love Out Ere.
    1) Yh Yh No Offence But Ur Album Cover Is Slackin Just A Bit. Its Not Awful But Ur Ready Cover N Anticipation Cover Were Buff.
    2) N What If Trey Finks He’s Da S***. He Is TOO PENG N Nuff Gyal Dem Finks He’s Da Hot Soo Its Kk.
    3) Its True Nicki Minaj Did Kinda Out Shine Him In Bottoms Up But Im Sure He’ll Deliver On Da Ova Songz Innit.
    4) Real Talk Trey Is Like A Dyin Species Man. He’s Like One Of Da Last Real R&B Singers N He’s MERKIN Da Scene. No Lie Trey Songz Must B Like No1 Played Artist On My iPod.
    5) Leave Da Boy Alone. Haterz R Just Bitter Or Jealous Ppl Hu Aint Gt Nuffink Nice 2 Say.
    Just Keep Doin Wht Ur Doin Trey Ur Doin A Perfectly Gd Job Up Dere N Ur Tattoos R NOICE 😉

  73. S September 6, 2010

    I like his music. It’s how Ushers was back in the day when he was young and s***, just starting out and dating Chilli.

    I’m not too keen on his lips too. And I bet someone who know’s there way around photoshop can do better. Even this (http://www.rnbmusicblog.com/trey-songz-passion-pain-pleasure-album/14865/ ) picture looks better then that mess up there.

    I love Trey Songz, but s*** dude, check yourself.

  74. Nic September 8, 2010

    Why are there a bunch of hatin ass men commenting? I’m just sayn!!!
