Are You Buying? Trey Songz’ New Album ‘Tremaine’

Published: Saturday 25th Mar 2017 by Rashad

Before Trey Songz could even wrap official promotion on his sixth official era, 2014’s ‘Trigga,’ fans had already begun calling for its official follow-up.  In February 2015, the Grammy-nominated crooner whet appetites by not only announcing the album’s title, ‘Tremaine,’ but also promising its content would be a venture away from his standard fare of raunch into more romantic subject matter.

“…in R&B and hip hop, I feel like it’s easy to make women feel sexy and be a bad bitch, but I feel like the Tremaine album will kind of put women on the pedestal again and show that it’s cool to love, it’s cool to want to be romantic, and it’s cool to want to be in a relationship.” (Source)

Well, it appears the ‘Heart Attack’ hitmaker has had a change of heart since then. For, upon its unique unveiling via a parodic VH1 reality dating show – ‘Tremaine the Playboy’ – the album’s weekly single releases have been nothing but typical Trey:  bleating about boning bad b-tches, bottles in the club, and neighing over trap beats.

Yet, while ‘Tremaine’ remains thematically in line with its predecessors, there is one keen difference:



‘Tremaine’ is Songz’ first album to date to be released without a Hot 100-charting single to precede it.  

The tunes released from the set to date – ‘Nobody Else But You,’ ‘Animal,’ ‘Playboy,’ ‘Song Goes Off,’ and ‘She Lovin It’ – have not been individually or collectively getting much love from the streaming or sales front. Granted, this could be attributed to the lack of full on promotion afforded the tunes (unlike the songs from his previous efforts), but that still isn’t the most promising sign of interest in the project.

On the upside, ‘Tremaine’ presently boasts #2 placement on digital sales charts less than 24 hours after its release.  Only Drake‘s blockbuster selling new release, ‘More Life,’ keeps it from the top spot.

 

Are you one of the many purchasing Trey’s latest effort to keep it afloat on sales charts?  If not, after streaming the set in full by clicking here, do you intend to join the number?  Tell us:

    won’t buy it but im definitely streaming.
    it’s good so far. She Loving It is on repeat. that instrumental is BAD. 1×1 is a cute pop crossover ish.
    It’s a good album

    • Casual-T March 25, 2017

      This comment made me look up 1×1 on youtube. It’s a bop for sure. That should be the single out now.

  2. Reminder March 25, 2017

    Didn’t buy it. I got it through other means and it’s his typical f**k boy Music. Yawn.

    • Ughhhh March 25, 2017

      Lmao

  3. meme March 25, 2017

    no thank you. Cant stand him or his music. His attitude is horrible. I stop spending my coins on artist who I cant connect with me.

  4. Queen Of Billboard (Barb) March 25, 2017

    Hes trash

    • The Wig Snatcher (Shether) March 25, 2017

      That’s something he and HOnika have in common.

  5. Tori March 25, 2017

    Hell no! It’s literally the same type of music he been putting out. He could’ve sold million if he released a porno as a ‘visual album’ with music as like a ‘soundtrack’. I’m just saying, if all you’re going to do is talk about your d*** and expertise in s** you might as well show us what you can do!

  6. ronnoc March 25, 2017

    Absolutely not. I’d be fine if I never heard his name for the rest of my life, along with jason derulo and pitbull.

  7. DanYiel Iman March 25, 2017

    Yea it’s a NO for me…

  8. Danzou March 25, 2017

    No

  9. Pat March 25, 2017

    30k tops. Hes the old guy n the game now doin the same old thing

    • Caleb March 25, 2017

      “Old guy in the game” lol. He’s only 32 tho!

      • Jason March 25, 2017

        Right! People kill me talking about old!! Is everyone in the industry supposed to be 22 forever. I can’t. I still don’t like him, but he’s FAR FROM OLD!

  10. Islandboi242 March 25, 2017

    Nope! Same sound no growth! I only like the first single the album put me to sleep. He’s still cocky and relying on his looks and I see it’s ending his career

  11. MUSICHEAD March 25, 2017

    Trey has really matured and I definitely like him more now than I did 5 years ago. I have to admit that I don’t buy music anymore. Streaming is the way to go and I think most consumers feel the same way. Trey knows it’s all about the singles and that will be his focus vs album sales/streams.

  12. RihYonce March 25, 2017

    I love Trey but I’m streaming it ! lol it’s a good album. I’ve never heard a bad album from him but Ready & Trey Day are still my favorites from him.

  13. Jamie March 25, 2017

    I’d rather but 25.

  14. Caleb March 25, 2017

    Not this time around. And I’ve been faithfully buying his every album since 2009 but his music is getting more wack with each release.

    • PYT March 25, 2017

      You’re cute. You can definitely get it ?

  15. cocobutta March 25, 2017

    Where is the “We should be making love” Trey gone 🙁

  16. Paulo March 26, 2017

    I can’t @ people not giving Usher the time of the day yet this goat fool going all the way to #2 on the charts

  17. John A. March 26, 2017

    ^no shade but that Usher album was trash so that’s on him. This Trey songs album is decent but like others says it’s no artistic growth.

  18. steve March 26, 2017

    No! He is a b**** at his best and a cheap attention seeking w****.

  19. Now at your summer day smile tran March 26, 2017
