With his ‘Passion, Pain & Pleasure’ album under-performing on the charts and struggling to reach gold status, Trey Songz has hit the promotional trail once again in an effort to turn things around. This time the singer performed on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’, delivering renditions of ‘Can’t Be Friends’ and ‘Bottoms Up’. Peep the performances below:
‘Can’t Be Friends’
‘Bottoms Up’
It looks like Songz is trying to capitalise on the Thanksgiving sales surge that is about to take place. Either way, the chances of him scoring his first platinum album seem rather slim at this point so I sense that his label would be happy if they could at least get a gold record.
Then again, judging by the massive promotional campaign launched for this project, it’s safe to say that the profits gained by the company were not as large as those from his ‘Ready’ LP. The only way that the label would have gotten sizable revenue from Songz this year is if he is on a 360 deal and they get a cut of all his concert sales and endorsement deals. Maybe sex doesn’t sell so well after all.
hehehe…not even gold yet. tsk tsk.
HORRIBLE!
I was wondering if he had gone GOLD yet? WTEV, I’m done with him, Drake, Nicki, R******, Lil Wayne, FEminem, Ke$ha, Naked Perry, Babble I mean Bieber, just the entire fake a$$ lot of them!
Trey bores me to f****** DEATH. Sure he got cuter after he cut his hair and started drinking his milk, but his music is soo blah now! Not surprised that his album isn’t performing well.
I’m also sick of these TV hosts: Jimmy Kimmel, David Letterman, McMoon I mean Jay Leno’s long a$$ chin, Connan O’Brien, etc! Damn, can we juist scrap all this garbage and start anew?
Ewwww, Trey and that song “I wish we never did it”…ewwww…he just …ewwwww!
I see someone’s madd that Trey dethroned breezy off the R&B charts. Face it Trent. Your fav is not hot anymore. Dueces has faded away, that boy is still putting out remixes to a song that came out 4 months ago while Trey is front and center with 2 hit singles on his hands lol. And whats your excuse for Graffiti. None of breezy’s songs have even gone top 20 much less top 10! Get over it. If you dont like Trey then dont post about him, your only giving him more exposure, do you know anything about publicity? Same thing with the Rihanna posts, your only giving her more undeserved attention. Thanks for making his sales go up 🙂
But a few months ago, y’all said his album had no promotion? Oh I get it, y’all just like to shade him. Anyway, he should be gold at the end of the month. And thats good for him. He may never go platinum. A lot of ppl aren’t selling like they used to. But he packs shows, and he’s getting good reviews for his performances on the OMG tour.
Oh, and he did well on Jimmy. He’s getting better at his tv performances.
MAN I SUCKED TREY SONGZ D*** HIS D*** IS SO DAMN BIG I WANT THAT D*** AGAIN
@ speechless Deuces is still in the top 20 on the hot 100 and #2 on the R&B charts, Chris is no where near “Fading away”. and ofcourse chris last cd did not do well (320,00 0) because radio stations stopped playing his music, he couldnt promote the cd anywhere and store like walmart DID NOT even have his cd’s out. Yet Trey has had a lot of promotion and that n**** still aint even gold. WTF gives?? Chris had a reason his ish flopped and it was because of his DV case and that whole bad situation. Deuces is still a hot song too, and the Euro pop version is for the overseas fans! Both Trey and Chris are hot, makes no sense to pit them against one another!!!
I think Trey is an okay performer tho, I love that We Cant Be Friends Song he has 🙂
@Speechless Trey needs to go platinum first before he even has a chance of dethroning anyone. Chris just had the no. 1 song with Deuces, and Trey is on the tour opening up for the man who is on the throne Usher. Kellz don’t apply to this because he is legendary like Trey said in his own words “We Know You the King of This”
LMFAO ANY PUBLICITY IS GOOD PUBLICITY AND AS LONG AS U KEEP, WATCHNG AND POSTING AND THROWING SHADE HE’S STILL IN FOR FRONT. YES HE IS OPENING FOR USHER BUT USHER WANTED HIM! USHER USED TO THROW HIM & BREEZY SHADE NOW HE WANTS TO E THEIR BFF. IF U CAN’T BEAT EM JOIN EM RIGHT URSH! ANYWHO I WOULD GO ON TOUR WITH ANYBODY CUZ IF U KNEW ANYTHING U KNEW THAT’S WHERE THESE PEOPLE MAKE THE MOST MONEY. GOOD 4 TREY! I’M STILL A FAN!!!!! HEE HEE
Wow. Trey’s album is underperforming???? This site is so wack.. PPP is Trey’s fastest selling album and has probably already shipped over half a million. As at this week, it sold 17,000 bringing its total to 490,000. Is that underperforming??? by next week it should officially cross the gold mark.
W
How many people go platinum these days??? HMMMMM….as at today only 8 albums so far have sold over a million in the US. Trey is selling like no other R&B male artist (minus usher), I doubt he is underperforming when he’s about to cross the half a million mark. I remember during his first week, haters on this blog said his final sales would be 400k, he was going to flop, some people even predicted 50k. Where are those haters now?
I’m no Stan but I give credit where credit is due, something Trent and Sam no nothing about.
Trey’s album is doing very well. stop making up stuff. It just reduces the credibility of this blog.

Flop Songz will not sell platinum! Baa that Goat songz
Trey loves the haters…keep it coming
Passion Pain & Pleasure has sold 492,000 copies to date and will be gold by next week. He’s also doing really well on tour and is even getting better reviews than Usher. Sooooo you mad? Stay mad! I find it funny that y’all are worried about how much money him or his record label is getting when you have no clue! Talk about the music and shut the ruck up!
@lisa from who???
@UHHH
If ur talking about the out performing part. Its from people who review music and tours for a living. It was said he out performed him musically.
Trent, you dumb ass – who are you to judge him.!! What the f*** have you done – how many albums have you sold?? OH I THOUGHT SO!!! BITCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
@lisa Yeah but he can’t hold a note without his voice shaking….
Say whatever u want about Trey but his shows are GOOD!!! He has been on the: Blueprint 3 tour, with Monica and now Usher. If he is “so garbage” , he would not be able to shut stadiums and theaters DOWN!!! Haters kill me
even his fan base is not going to make him platinum! People will not but an album if the person can even remotely sing!! People of fed up with this s***** music Trey an peers keep trying to present to us consumers!!! I will never support music in this decade! 9 times out of ten it is going to be some b******* rapper, or a un talented singer like this dude trying to sing rap! Some people have the “TALENT” to do both!! Back in the day you were a singer, or a rapper. not both!! You folks keep trying to make this dude comparable to kellz, or any real singer that we have left!! S*** Elvis got a bigger fan base than this dude!!! Kiddies keep living you teenage dream, cuz point blank, after the whole trying to impress your highness Prince with them lackluster vocals!! He lost all his singer cred of what he had left!!! Dude for people keep saying he is going to platinum, you my dear have lost your got damn mind! His last album barely reached gold last year!! Why the f*** is this going to fair any better????? Again you f****** losers 2011 s*** about to change!! If this music don’t start getting real HE’LL NEVER GET PLATINUM!! GET REAL KIDS REAL MUSIC IS COMING BACK!! F*** HIM, AND F*** THAT SUPPORTS FAKE ASS r&b LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!
Kio right on the money! Enough said about that joke! Those cotext fat hog 300lbs bleeders change your cotext and stop lying to yourselves he’s a flopper and a goat herder Baaa that Goat songz
@UHHH
Have u ever been to one of his shows? He sounds amazing live, better than Usher! Thats why they said he out performed him MUSICALLY!
Lisa you need to head to the emergency room for excessive bleeding homie! Dude is done in this town.
Undisputed King of R&B switched lanes and came out firing with ammo on Goat songz with belting vocals! Love letter best work yet and the Baaing sheep is ova!
@Lisa How when he can’t even keep his voice from shaking on a song…i hope he doesn’t think that’ sounds good cuz it really doesn’t it’s horrible and his falsetto is a major joke so don’t even come at me with some mess that he can sing cuz he can’t and it’s time the people clean thier ears and realize
@UHHH
Well until you’ve been been to one of his shows and heard him sing live for yourself, your opinion doesnt count. I’ve seen him live plenty of times and he sounds amazing live! These TV performances do him no justice because i honestly think he’s nervous.
Co-sign
I heard Trey Songz in concert a few years back (around Trey Day, his second album) and his vocals were flawless. I have to admit that I’ve always been a fan, but I went with my older sister who didn’t like him before but she was very impressed.
I really think it’s nervousness but he’ll get over it. He’s just now coming into his own.
That is why Trey did not make the cut- Top 200 Billboard 25 years best seller and chart topper! R Kelly taken the title of number 1- Number 1 R Kelly.
ummmm boo boo his album is already at gold status. so how is it struggling??
Trey never fails at anything. From S** appeal to everything. He is so
s*** and He just makes you wanna scream… Smooches!
Trye is at 755,000 copies and counting and he is still in the hot 100 ..platinum is a reality this time if they push a few more records
