The first week numbers are in for Trey Songz‘s fourth studio album ‘Passion, Pain, & Pleasure’. Find out how the aspiring porn-star fared after the jump…
According to reliable Hits Daily Double, Songz and his label will have cause for celebration, as ‘Passion’ is set to debut at #2 on the Billboard 200 this week – with sales of 244,103. Rockers Linkin Park pipped the R&B crooner to the top spot, shifting 253,685 of their latest LP ‘A Thousands Suns’.
————————————————-
Being the fair and unbias site that we are, we extend our congratulations to Songz for what is undeniably an impressive feat (especially in this low sales climate).
Of course, the album’s charting doesn’t take away the fact it’s hands-down the worst of the four LP’s he’s released. Nor the fact Songz as an artist sells little more than the fantasy of getting what’s inbetween his legs. Most importantly, it doesn’t disguise the fact that the previous points only serve to count against him in the long run.
In any case, it’ll be interesting to see how this sells when all is said and done. Perhaps, after four albums and a self-inflating reality series, Songz may finally be able to push past the Gold status which has defined his overstated level of success to date.
Randomness: No shade (as in really), but I can’t help but scratch my head at how Trey manages to pull in such numbers, yet Rihanna (undeniably the bigger of the two) can’t push more than 190,000 on her best first week. Things that make you go hmmm…
The numbers are great, but naturally you need to bash him and find a way to bash rihanna too. I dont get how this is unbiased. congrats trey.

tell me what you think!
YASSS! go trey i love this album he deserves it
CONGRATS TREY…..*EVENTHOUGH “READY” IS A BETTER ALBUM
CONGRATS TREY…..*EVENTHOUGH “READY” IS A BETTER ALBUM
REAL MUSIC DOESNT SELL ANYMORE!!! JUST AUTO TUNE CRAP..EURO TECHNO POP AND F****** S**!!!!!!! JANET JACKSON MICHAEL JACKSON ,MARIAHCAREY AKA REAL MUSIC WE NEED YOU BACK!!!! THE INDUSTRY IS S*** WITHOUT YOU
haha wow
not gonna lie that’s a bit of a shocker. I was expecting waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay lower
I can NOT believe he sold almost 250,000. I think JayZ bought 75,0000 and Bey bought another 75,000 as payment for going on tour. I don’t know anyone who went out bought it either! hmmmmm…..
I didn’t like this album and hell I wouldn’t buy but I don’t buy any music why should I? if I can get it for free why buy it
“Aspiring p*** star”
You SLAY me. Hilarious.
Oh come on you are only salty because of the interview u did with him, LOL! and congrats I didn’t buy because his attitude STINKS and I couldn’t bare to see him with my money. Anyway it was a decent album! Not touching Ready but congrats none the less!
This album is way better than his second one.
@Kulbee30, I co-sign your comment %100 that Jay is behind all of this …..HA!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats to My Teaser though…wink!
@IDRAG4MJ
#COSIGN
No offense but lets see if he can keep these sales up next week. This is good though 😀 I’m happy for him! Hopefully his fans are loyal enough to get him past Gold Status for once in his career. He is already 1/4 of the way to being platnium. I hope 2nd week sales are good!
trey songz releases mixtapes to gain street credibility and to gain “man” fans… Then he create s** driven music, and plays with himself on stage (completely) abandoning his male fan base to sell records… And we know overly sexed artist don’t last, because as soon as his female base gets tired and move on to another “s** symbol” his career is over. It happened time and time again…. Bobby brown, KC and JOjo, Genwuine etc… List goes on..
CHris brown, usher, neyo never done that, which is why they can always sell records!!! They can be s*** keeping their female fans happy, without alienating their male fan base.
YESSSSSSSSS WELL DONE MY TREY SONGZ, THIS GOES FOR THE HATERS IN YA FACE BOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM LMAO
Trey Songz have yet to come even close to Rhianna numbers.. lets be real
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
j/k I do not like this pervert but i will say that he works f****** hard. He’s finally gettiing somewhere with the albums going downhill, the sales seem to be going uphill!
congrats Trey! I might buy it just to be nice lol
Congrats…
I said last week if he can keep the sales up also.
All those followers on twitter for NOTHING.
trey fans dondriad him, meaning people didnt support him like they shouldve.
dondria have a fan base on youtube but only sold 40,000 copies of her cd
trey have over a million followers on twitter and over half didnt cop his s***,LOL
All that stanning FOR NOTHING
And now idiots on twitter are doing that trey follow me b*******
I hope he can keeps these numbers up. Or else his fans are just big s*** talkers for nothing. They already bragging and what not because Trey is finally getting somewhere with his fourth album….lmao…I’m happy for him too but some people need to sit down….
congrats trey i never saw dis coming i hope he go platinum cuz i dont wish bad on nobody ..
Loves it and Im not a fan of success
Dont get mad Cuz your favorites gonna flop no matter how much u try to drag others down
Wow … you guys are still it! Let the man have one day off with out the hate. I’m not a stan of his either! It’s obvious that most people expected him to sell much less! He proved us all wrong and as much as I wanted to dislike him – I must admit that the cd is half way decent. I’ll declare this cd my favorite Trey Songz cd and that’s only because I don’t really care for any of the others. I think this one shows some promise though. I love the Unusual!
ahahahahahhaa i love this site!!!!!
i’m disappointed that he’s the opening act for Usher. it’s quite the turn off for me 😐
i stopped reading the article @ ‘being the fair and unbiased site that we are’
Randomness: No shade (as in really), but I can’t help but scratch my head at how Trey manages to pull in such numbers, yet Rihanna (undeniably the bigger of the two) can’t push more than 190,000 on her best first week. Things that make you go hmmm…
That’s just first week sales boo and she’s never been a big first week opener.
If we’re talking long term -which is what matters- then Rihanna obviously destroys him.
Rated R is Platinum, Ready is Gold. 😛
@KULBEE30
I agree.
Even with the promotion : ‘Get one copy of Rated R for 0.99 $ and get 3 for free + 10 paire of free tickets for the “Last Goat in the world-No’ mo cheese” Tour + 500 Doritos packets ‘
After all that,Trey songz have a stronger debut than Rihrih.Mamma mia !!
Congrats to him
lmao..i just scanned the bottom of the highlighted Randomness bit…
DEAD. i cannot with trent and sam
will they forever be obsessed wth rihanna?
something in the milk aint clean about them sales because there is no way that anyone could have been checking for stray thongz “Pickles, P***, and P**** bumps” there is just NO WAY.
Met to say I’m not a fan of his but I am a fan of success
Great point about Rihanna…but her albums always develop. She’s not a big seller the first week–ever. And Rated R is not platinum, it’s certified platinum.
This lemon head negro better be lucky so many hoodrats fantasize and droll over his shirtless body. That’s the only reason why he is pulling in these numbers, because so many hoodrats are brainwashed by his physical appearance. I REFUSE to support this weak voiced, cocky, arrogant koon. I wouldnt even download this bull$hit from frostwire.
F*CKING DEAD @ stray thongz “Pickles, P***, and P**** bumps”
I am crying right now 😆
Can’t get into this one, I’m not feeling it at all. And it has nothing to do with any other artist!
*DEAD* at Sam. Uh…yeah..you are so throwing shade & you guys are beyond biased. Lol! But I love this site though.
Well I must say that I am pleasantly surprised & very happy for my fellow VA native. I really didn’t think he would sell that much first week, almost 250k first week is great…especially for him. Hopefully he can keep up his sales and even go platinum with this album. I’m not really loving this album, I think ‘Ready’ was so much better, but this one is decent. Clearly he has built up his fan base & they have held him down. Well at least a quater million of em. Lol!
Its obvious that he has pushed his s** appeal to help him sell, that disappoints me but hell, he had to do what he had to do. I wonder how long that is going to work for him. I am still disappointed that he is going on tour with Usher rather than CB, but it is what it is. *shrugs*
Congrats on the great debut Trey!
hmm someone bought 225,000 copies of their own album….
@ Tiff:
Once again, you slay me with your hilarious yet on point comments. 😀
@ ILoveXTina:
LOL, maybe he did!
@ilovextina.
LMAO at that gravatar.
congrats trey. the more sucess you get the more haters you get. trent is so mad right now he could s*** razors. how sad that only treys failure would have made his day.
Heres my thing, this album is NOT his best at all….i couldnt quite figure out why i didnt care for it as a whole because i do like about 7 songs (he has 18 so that is sort of sad), but finally i figured it out, the album is in no way shape or form COHESIVE …….like anticipation the mixtape, it was cohesive, it followed, and being cohesive it doesnt even have to have a theme, the album just has to flow well together, all the songs have to flow nicely into the next, like ushers album, it doesnt have a theme like confessions did but if flows well together,or like The Dream, he isnt the best singer ever but his albums are always COHESIVE and has awesome production. He has kind of crossed over and i believe thats why were getting dumbed down music from him….which kind of breaks my heart, but apparently money is worth more then artistry

it is ok . . .
Is that a joke “Being the fair and unbias site that we are” HUH!? Since when?!
I see my comment was removed….if you can’t take the heat, just get out the damn room!
good for trey and as always your bread and butter is on your mind.
COOL. 🙂 CONGRATS TREY!
“BEING THE FAIR AND UNBIASED SITE THAT WE ARE” < UM… OK? LOL
I predicted around dat slightly smaller. Some of u must not understand how the album sales process works or even the billboard charts.
Poor Fist Brown.
Trey’s album sold more than Graffiti in its 1st week.
And Rated R has sold over 900K in the states and 3 Million worldwide.
“Being the fair and unbias site that we are” ….. LMAO I just spat out my water!
Sorry, but Mariah Carey does not make real music, here is the proof
http://www.examiner.com/contemporary-art-in-orlando/mariah-carey-unveils-her-new-christmas-album-cover
Learn your history about Mariah before you try it.
Real Music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Li6vpAMmfw0&ob=av2n
Im really getting irritated with the constant mentioning of CB in posts that have nothing to do with them. Please grow the f*ck up!
Anyways congrats to Trey, not much of a fan but he’s alright. But that is interesting how he pushed 240k and Rihanna hasn’t passed 190k first week (even with the public’s sympathy). Interesting… but Rihanna does maintain high sales for about a month or two and I dont think Trey will. I also heard he was selling it for 0.99 so that may be why.
‘”Being the fair and unbias site that we are….”
ARE YOU F****** KIDDING ME?
Something is fishy about them numbers, who knew he would sell like that, congrats to him.
http://www.princessatelia.b*******.com Get it for your little princess
Don’t lol at rihanna’s numbers. She tries so hard. Those kids have to but 5 – 10 copies for her to get the 190k she got.
WOW, good for Trey. He is only 10,000 copies behind Linkin Park. That is a huge accomplishment for him. It just goes to show how dedicated his fan base is.
I think we can all say…. TGJ got OWNED! Talking all that s*** and look what happened, lmao.
rihanna sold 296,000 her first week w.w and gaga released a new album that week , and boyle,and adam lambert,and shakira sooo rihrih had competition unlike trey. linken park and trey have a different audience ..rihanna has the same audiance as all those people released the same day as her(except boyle) soo obviouly her #s werent amazing but her albums sell longer and better so who cares allll pinks first week sales suck(like 160,000 first week with funhouse) but she always goes platium and sellllls verrrrry welll…and gaga only sold 300,000 copies first week w.w and rihrih sold 296,000 so thats not a big differnce maybe nexr-time tgj should use other people then just rihanna to get hits

Poor Fist Brown.
Trey’s album sold more than Graffiti in its 1st week.
And Rated R has sold over 900K in the states and 3 Million worldwide.
——————————–
Now let me know what Chris had to do with anything? People are in here trynna congratualte Trey and you had to bring him up? Alot of things sold more than Graffiti its first week whats your point? Don’t even get me started on why that album flopped but that has nothing to do with anything. But why poor Chris? Trey has four albums and has yet to accomplish more than Chris. He is just NOW starting to sell. And he has yet to have a platnium album(I’m hoping this one goes platniumn though). 1/3 albums flopped for Chris. And 2 of Trey’s flopped and one barely reached success. And what did Rihanna have to do with this? I done told your ass to get back to your mental hospital! So until then Chris and Trey are two different artist and Rihanna isn’t even a male artist so wtf?
Sorry guys I’m a fan of both but that was so not needed. Carry on with the positivity 😀 Congrats Trey!
@Wire
If I wasn’t a fan of Trey I would say Exclusive sold more than Trey’s whole career but i’ll keep it cute for the simple fact I don’t wanna downplay Trey’s success when this is good for him. But go sit your stupid self in a corner. You irrelevant creature.
Trey cultivated quite a following with his last album so that helped him with this one. The album is kind of lacking to me though.
Thank Nicki for being the sole culprit for Trey’s debut record sales. She opened him up to the masses, which it turn, increased his audience and record sales. I wonder if Nicki gets a flat fee for her verse, or does she sign on for a portion of the record sales.
you guys are some damn fools lemme tell ya.
ooop. Some of y’all are mad, lol. Anywho, congrats Trey on slaaaaying. I think this album is going to go platinum and he is going to get a Grammy nod. Stay mad!
I think he might sell more than Rihanna in the States, she sold just under 1 Million, If he actually goes Platinum his 4th Album will pass Rih’s 4th Album in the states. I hope so, he is the more talented of the 2 & he will certainly outsell loud. 😆
Too bad his music is generally lacking in substance though. MEH
So, let me try to understand this: you’ve never headlined, or if you did, your tour was poorly supported by your fans. You’ve been someone’s “Opening Act”, you’re now about to, AGAIN be, someone’s “Opening Act.” Your reality-TV show, was “poorly received,” (you deny it’s a “reality TV-show”) and BET has re-newed it for next season. And now, you’ve sold 244K! …Interesting, very, very interesting! Why/how could you have such horrid-ratings, for your reality-TV show, if you’ve OVER 1-Million twitter-followers?
I mean, let’s be real: “the math doesn’t add up!” …But let’s see if, in the coming days/weeks, they’ll be a $0.99 sale. Let’s see if these numbers have “legs to carry him to platinum-status!”
If, these numbers hold, then I’m liking what I’m seeing for Breezy. I don’t see T.I.’s sales-figures, so they must have decided not to release his CD.
X,Y,”and Z” — OUT…!!
Selling 250K & almost going #1 is VERY impressive for him BTW…
Proves hes doing something right selling more than Straintina 1st WK Lol.
@LOUD
How Dare You *Keyz Voice* talk an artist not having substance and be a Beyonce stan. B**** please! Go kill your deluded self h**.
And all you Rihanna stans needa go save her before all her milk has been milked b******.
Trey Songz Talent in his pinky>>>>>>>> Tackiyonce and Rhigoata talent in their whole body.
#Stay Mad
Fist Brown will never sell like this again.
His high school dropout ghetto stans can’t afford to buy s***.
And Trey will never go platinum. His sales will dramatically drop next week.
I sent him on a mission to kill Fist Brown’s career and he successfully did. I’m proud!
Did anybody notice that Trey Songz wasn’t poppin until Chris Brown was hated by the media.
Fist Brown brutally beating Rihanna and leaving her for dead has nothing to do with Trey’s success.
Chris downfall is the reason for Gay Songz success and thats a fact
@Wire
yes it was b****
That be Cool n all, but I just wanna suck his d***.
Congrats to Trey, if he didn’t buy half of those albums. And Wtf @trey being compared to Rihanna??? He’ll never touch her sales…
congrats to Trey for keeping u on your toes and keeping u running your mouth. @stan how could u say that Ginuwine (watch your speliing) didn’t sell s** when his 1st album cover he was shirtless and his 1st video he was talking about riding his pony in a bar filled with men? (scratching my head) how could u say that Usher didn’t promote s** when his very 1st single call me a mack, and can you get wit it, he was talking about s** even when he didn’t know wtf it is! NOT 2 MENTION he used to pull a bed on stage just like Mr. Bobby Brown and hump it. Oh yea Usher used to bring his fans on stage as well with that same bed and seduce (watch the dvd). you people are so judgemental it’s ridiculous. Chris Brown couldnt immediately talk about s** but when he did he wanted to take you down lol. Get a clue guys. At the end of the day music is music. In my opinion Trey Day was his worse album. This album stands on the ups and down of relationships and if you’ve ever been in a “real” relationship you should be able to relate to them all. It grew on me. Just give it a try. It’s a mix between Anticipation and Ready. Please return my call, Made to be together and Unfortunate are the most mature of them all and s** ISNT the topic.
LMAO @ “the aspiring p***-star”
i can’t belive some one boughtt his h** album #getemhoodrats
Although Trey may have a few Ego issues, i must the guy is really working hard on building his profile as a mainstage artist.
I think having a Tour with Monica really helped him with his profile as when you saw them together u got to see a better humble side of Trey.
The Sales are real good for an R&B artist and although this maybe one of his weaker albums he still has progressed in other aspects of his commercial appeal.
The s**-appeal avenue aint a new thing in the R&B scene so if it works for him then i can say at least he found his lane with the likes of Mega Star Usher then Ne-Yo & Chris Breezys around
Well Done
Seriously guys because half of you didnt buy his album doesnt mean he was supposed to sell less than that. he has fans and i dnt mean only black ones he has alot of white females that adore him and wanna get freaky with him onstage and they actually buy cds instead of giving reviews like u guys do. And as for the rihanna comments made by sam and trent, they just wanted more hits for their site and who would do it better than the chris stans and rihanna stans..hahaha.
How did a article about trey turn into a comment about Rihannia? And 3 million copies worldwide isnt a flop any day. This site is all about negativty and its starting to turn alot of of people off
Boy Stop
ALL TREY SONGZ SING ABOUT IS S** . HE WILL NEVER PULL BEYONCE NUMBERS SO SIT!
Loooooool @WIRE ” i sent him on a mission to kill Fist Brown’s career and he successfully did. I’m proud!”
loooooooool Your soo Messy
But it does look like he has taken criminal browns spot =/ Dammme he is even going on tour with Usher *Sighs* It’s a GOD DAME SHAME
*Eats Doritos*
tbh i underestimated him
at least this proves that the negative opnionated crowd of this site don’t call the shots, in the prediction post, barely anyone said he’d do more thasn 100k first week
he also got favourable reviews from critics contrary to tgj’s self -acclaimed criitcs
i don’t like him much but he’s still a bruva..anyday
@ sam
“Randomness: No shade (as in really), but I can’t help but scratch my head at how Trey manages to pull in such numbers, yet Rihanna (undeniably the bigger of the two) can’t push more than 190,000 on her best first week. Things that make you go hmmm…”
A same thing mi a say too!
Anyways congrats to trey, he sold way more than i expected.
IN RANDOM NEWS: MARQUES HOUSTON’S ALBUM “MATTRESS MUSIC” IS THE S***!
#THATISALL
My God, ya’ll have to be one of the shadiest blogs in the world. If you don’t like Trey (and majority of your followers don’t) why keep writing posts about him. Ya’ll are like some petty little girls holding grudges. I’m sorry, if I don’t like someone, I usually don’t give them the time of day. But, since Trey is hot in the industry now, I know you probably have to keep posting about him to also keep your popularity up, but why not just state the news and keep it moving. Angel from Concrete Loop doesn’t like Trey (she use to), but she just gives the news and keeps it moving…not ya’lls shady asses. Grow up!
Next week sells will tell the truth if can go platinum/ if sells are in low then he will stop at gold. Wait and see
TREY HAS FILLED THE TEMPORARY VOID THAT C BREEZY LEFT BECAUSE OF THAT RHIANNA DRAMA.
MARK MY WORDS, TREY SONGZ CANNOT SUSTAIN THIS TYPE OF MUSIC AND SALES VOLUME, AS THERE IS NO REAL SUBSTANCE EXCLUDING THE SCREAMING YOUNG GIRL FANS!
SAW A VIDEO OF THIS FOOL ON STAGE , GESTURING FINGERING A WOMAN ETC, THIS S*** IS GETTING STUPID MAN!!!
I ACTUALLY LIKE SOME OF THE TREY JOINTS FROM PREV. ALBUMS, HOWEVER YOU CAN SEE THE LAME TRANSIOIN HE HAS MADE MUSICALLY TO GAIN SOME LIMELIGHT.
I CERTAINLY WAS NOT ONE OF THE PEOPLE WHO BOGHT THE ALBUM, DOWNLOADED IT FOR FREE AND WAS STILL NOT THAT IMPRESSED!!!
Lol at @Wire and @Yellow
So 4 albums later(which is more than CB’s) and CB first album has still outsold all of Trey’s sales together. And Graffiti has sold more than probably Trey’s first album(idk about his first two albums but they aint cerified s***) also he is even going on tour with Usher? Good for him 😀 But 5-6 years into your career(infact he has been out a bit longer than Chris) and four albums later and your headlining for Usher? All he is, is the opening act so I’m kinda glad Chris isn’t going on the tour. If you are 5-6 years in your career you should try you own tour. Of course you won’t mention how Trey has never done ig venues though right?
And Chris will never sell like that again? Lmao. Okay sure. But what you fail to realize even with facts is Graffiti flopped because of lack of promotion, blackballing, his scandal, a completely different sounds werent used to, etc. But why has Trey not yet went platnium with Ready? And he has tooken Chris’ spot but he is still opening up for others? Lmao. Ya’ll drag yourselves.
Aeh! ur punk ass don’t recognize talent shut the f*** up i have passion,pain,and pleasure it is a great cd and u can play it all the way through u f*****’ hater shut the f*** up what the f*** did u create u f*****’ asshole if u don’t have anything good to say shut up everybody go cop that new trey ya’ll it is fire this other blog thats comin’ from a hater who? obviously has no taste ;)!
I love it….so before the album came out the the first single dropped everybody roarrd “he will flop,flop songz,he wont do more than xx,he will never go platinumetc etc “,THEN the cd drops and he sales very well(more than both rihanna and cb) and now its “oh its a fluke,will never happen again, etc etc……so what’s next??? btw rihanna’s rated r hasnt SOLD over a mill,it’s shipped that,and the actual numbers between “ready” and “rated r” aren’t that far apart so you can try again on that one ! : )
JusBillz your a joke with the Goat Songz insults,
His fans is trying to speak in volumes by making a statement to make sells better early on, it’s how he finishes and I think it will slope off like Ricky Ross album, flop in the next coming weeks to drop down lower than low!
And he did not debut at number 1# as hoped for, at least Untitled R Kelly debut at number one and held the slot for four weeks.
Trey is a gimmick and only one or two songz will reach the top 10.
Flop
I agree with TGJ’s overall assessment of Trey’s latest project. This is not his best work todate but s** sell just look at Rihanna, GaGa and the rest. I still congratulate the brother on having a very successful 1st week debut. He didn’t need to call anyone out or beg for sympathy in order to sell his CD either. Good job boy.
100% co-sign! After a while the whole s** thing is gonna fade. I hope he can change with the time.
I also think that Joe Camel is behind these sells. He took him on tour and now he is the face of rocawear. Humpback said he wants Usher to take Michael Jackson’s place in the music industry, then it was announced that he’s taking Trey on tour. Hmmm?
OH SAM!!!! I’M SURE YOU WERE LIKE A LITTLE KID ON CHRISTMAS EVE WAITING FOR THOSE NUMBER TO ARRIVE!!!! AND ARRIVE THEY DID!!!!! GET IT TREY!!!! HE SHOCKED THE HELL OUT OF YOU DIDN’T HE!!!! GOOD FOR YOU TREY!!! KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO! CAUSE WE LOVE YOU BOO! AS FOR SAM; I THINK HE MIGHT BE COMING AROUND. OR NOT BUT WHO CARES!
How could he do so well but his EBT show performed so poorly? I am with Tiff something might be amiss in those numbers after all!
Nobody can take Chris Brown’s spot. Trey and Chris have two different vibes going on. Trey , Usher, & Neyo are very alike to me. Chris is in a lane all by himself. Chris success depends on him & if the power struct in the music industry leaves him alone & allows him to do his thing!
Well I must admit, I’m impressed with his sales! I didn’t think he would crack the 100,000 mark but he did. Now will he continue to sell? Because a big opening wieek does not always mean your album will continue to sell big numbers.
DAMN!!!! Well Ill be the first to admit when im wrong. I really didnt think he would do this much(considering all the negative comments on twitter and blogs about the album)I guessed 100k-180k(I think I cant remember what I put in the last post). Well CONGRATULATIONS Trey I knew you would do OK without my help cause I didnt buy a copy lol. Sorry I heard the album on his pg and I wasnt to crazy about it only liked 5 songs. Ill still be checking for his future projects tho.
PS
I wonder what all the people who guessed under 100k are thinking right now lol?
HAHAHA speaking of Trey “Cant Be Friends” just came on MTV Jams as I was typing
Why does Chris Brown always have to be dragged into Trey’s post… there’s no comparison and since you brought him into it…. Trey will have to do a lot to play catch up with Chris. I’m not going into numbers or anything but, I will say this, Chris is worth $25 Million what is Trey worth, Chris had already made his first million at 16…. To be better than Chris he’s going to have to top that year of 2008, making $18.5 million that year along…. Trey’s 25, Chris 21 he will never accomplish what Chris has already done. It’s okay to write daily that his career is over, it make’s you feel better. Over a million followers, he should have been gold!!!!
Its funny to me..when trey first came out..his music was more raw, more real and had more substance…but not to many pple paid attention to him and he didnt sell that many albums…but when he comes out shirtless talking about s**..then he blows up and becomes more contemporary. He’s just giving yall with the public wants..when an artist tries to come out with good music..nobody listens..its only when they talk about s**, guns, drugs, etc. is when everyone loves them. The man is damned if he does, damned if he doesnt. His record company wanted him to have the success that the ushers, neyos, and chris browns had so thats why they gave him a new image, look and style. Fans of his like me who liked trey since day one with “Gotta make it” in 2005 knew his struggle. He really is a talented artist who can vibe with many different varieties of music but we the pple put him in a box of only s** music..so thats what he gives us cus thats what the public wants. If u want the old trey…then start liking requesting and liking music of substance so that he can go back to his old ways and he’ll still continue to sell.
The album is solid and most of the people that say otherwise are people that dislike Trey. I think that it is one of the best R&B releases this year (next to Fantasia’s)
MOST OF YALL ARE PURE HATERS.. HE DOESNT JUST TALK ABOUT S**.. IF U LISTEN TO ALL THE SONGS AND STOP HATING OR BRIG JEALOUS.. NEVER HATE WHEN ANYONE MAKIN THEIR PAPER AND STAYING OUT OF TROUBLE.. SOME SONGS THAT ARE NOT ABOUT S** BUT HAVE MEANING ARE.. ON THE FOLLOWING ALBUMS:
…….PASSION PAIN & PLEASURE
Can’t Be Friends
Please Return My Call
made to be together
Unfortunate
Blind
You just need me
Already taken (deluxe)
Love me better (deluxe)
…..READY….
One Love
I need a girl
Jupiter love
Be where you are
Successful
Black roses
Lost love
Holla if ya need me
Yo side of the bed
…….
I could go on and on.. but that’s a lot of songs on his last 2 CDs that are not about s**.. and I would also include Love Faces and Massage.. its more love making.. not just sexing.
Damn ppl listen to all the songs.. don’t judge Becuz females like him and he take his shirt off.. Usher.. CB.. all them take their shirt off.. Usher stopped now cuz he reached 30.. but in young 20s some artist do it.. no big deal.. even I’m a guy.. but I have no insecurity like some of u poddle a** cats
the album is doing so great because Trey has been working really hard to promote it. the tour, album signings, numerous appearances and he gives his fans what they want, so its really not a mystery.
this writer is a pure hater. trey’s album was good.
and rihanna said herself she never sweats herself about the first week sales because one of her albums didnt sell 90609987 copies in the first week
but it still was on the best sellers of the year.
trey pulled in good numbers because he made a good album that appealed to his audience.
i bought his album and its pretty damn good.
and ive heard all of his music
hes a great artist
and i dont like how ppl here are underestimating trey,
he obviously just proved all your asses wrong.
the album has already gone plat. in the states.
haters just cant handle and are desperate to find SOMETHING wrong, smfh
TREY SONGZ IS AN AMAZING ARTIST AND IF YOU DON’T AGREE WITH ME FUCKKKKKK YOUUUU CUZ YOU AIN;T S*** BUT A F****** HATER FUCKKKKK ALLLL TREY HATERZ BITCHESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
