Trey Songz Ready To Open ‘Chapter 5’

Published: Thursday 18th Aug 2011 by Sam

R&B trier Trey Songz isn’t letting the Gold-only ceiling which has defined his career deter him. For, less than a year after releasing the moderately successful ‘Passion, Pain, & Pleasure’ LP, the crooner is lining up its follow-up.

Full story below…

When probed on his upcoming plans, during a recent interview with Glamazons, the 26 year old spilt that Earl Grey on the forthcoming LP:

GJ: What can we expect from you in the future? You’ve done music, fashion, fragrances, what’s next?

Trey Songz: I just did Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3-D coming out next year. I’m working on a new album entitled Chapter 5. Music will always be my first love. I’m going to South Africa and I’m elated about it. I’m taking my mother and family. That trip will be very instrumental in what this next album will be.

Let’s hope ‘Chapter 5’ boasts less panty dropping antics and more actual substance this go round. That way, Mr Songz’s Platinum dreams may be more than just an awkward line in that Kodak commercial.

Your thoughts?

    I’m sorry but I do not like this queen. Last time I was lostenin to him was GOTTA GO. His first cd was ok.

    All this s** talk comig from a known homo is so annoying. Trying too hard. Get back to the basics or u will be forever written off by me.

    Already was giving his bird chest b*** a pass with that yodeling

  3. KD August 18, 2011

    He is like the male equivalent of Rihanna…releasing an album on almost yearly basis…not that I am complaining…I was in love with PPP and Ready.

  6. KD August 18, 2011

    @JAMIR

    Do you suffer from ADD. I was talking about the rate @ which they (Trey and Rihanna) release albums. It would help if you pulled your head out of Rihanna’s ass every now and then. SMH

    He needs to focus on the music. He’s good-looking, but being s*** can only get you so far.

  9. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) August 18, 2011

    Maybe he can bring it.He hasn’t delivered a masterpiece yet, but he’s never done something awful either.

    Btw, why are you all coming at his neck so much??Everyone has a lane and his lane is talking about s**.Yes, it’s one-dimensional, but it’s well executed and not offensive at least.R n’b music always had some sexual lyrical context and anyway s** is most probably a part of his life, so he wants to talk about that.What’s the problem?

  10. Mrs. Tremaine Aldon Neverson August 18, 2011

    Can’t wait for Chapter 5 I’m so in love with Tremaine……

  11. Bitter b****** make me sick…. Throw up (queenbey) August 18, 2011

    All of his songz sound like one another…….

    Dnt wanna hear about s** from a person who looks like a one minute man…..

    ‘Invented S**’ and ‘Last Time’ is da only songz I like from him….

  12. Bitter b****** make me sick…. Throw up (queenbey) August 18, 2011

    *is= are

  13. MISHKA August 18, 2011

    I’m all about hustling but I gotta agree: this time around, Trey Songz needs a worlwide smash hit. At all costs.

  14. TremainesBabyGirl(; August 18, 2011

    Alright see now this just got personal!!! why all the rude comments? Some of u said he hasn’t done a masterpiece yet.. Aha PLEASE! every album of his is a success.. okay? yeah okay! Then the comments about the s** songs.. uhm he is a man and almost EVERYONE has songs about s**. The homo comment really threw me off. See look here person people even proved that the picture was made sooo yeah that means its FAKE!! Oh and can’t be friends was all the way in last year.. Trey has many new songs.. Hmmmm look them up!!!! they are good too. Now the movie, I believe Trey is going to be good. Dang give the man a break he gives it his all. Music is his life!!! Why do people have to down everyone’s success? If I don’t like someones music i always find something that i like about them.. Talk about that don’t down them!! Trey Songz is amazing and the prof is that he has millions of fans that would die to meet him! Real fans that would do anything to support him.. We know how good of a man he is so really tho learn a little bit about a person before u down them(: Welp thats it, thats all!

    The s** songs he makes doesn’t bother me, its his singing that bothers me and the way he pokes his lips out. When he sings it sounds force, like he is howling. He doesn’t sing nature like R Kelly, Joe and other R & B classic artists. I think he messed up Kelly Rowland remix to motivation with all the howling. I turn the station when they play the remix. He needs to sing and stop making those crazy sounds when he sings. He thinks its s*** but so many people has made fun of his singing styles from Jamiee Fox to Chris Brown.

  16. Tuhh August 18, 2011

    @Zania interesting but Chris Brown can’t and won’t sing live. Most of the time he’s lipping. He can’t make jokes about anyone’s voice when Chris needs autotune for just about every song. He has a whiny nasally tone. Also, he’s ALWAYS talking about s** now! As well as his money, being fly, haters,snatching someone’s girl, and making people jealous.

  17. ZANIA August 18, 2011

    @TUHH, Chris’s Fame songs that isn’t about s**, UP TO YOU,NEXT TO YOU, SHOULD’VE KISS YOU,ALL BACK, NOT AUTOTUNES SONGS, AND DIDN’T HE SING SHE AIN’T YOU LIVE ON THE BET AWARDS AND EVERYONE WAS UPSET BECAUSE HE DIDN’T DANCE. DID YOU SEE HIS CONCERTS REVIEW FROM AUSTRALIA, AND THEY SAID HE SUNG 75% AND THE REST WAS DANCING. Chris has a beautiful voice and this isn’t about Chris I was strictly talking about my opinion on Trey songz singing ability. I notice how you single Chris out, out of all the artist I listed.

  18. Alexander August 18, 2011

    I’m sorry but Trey really needs to take one year off from releasing another so called album which flops! His team is putting out too many units and they can only pull out a Gold album!
    from 2.5 million pressed CD’s to only push 500,000 is costing the label more money.

    And agreed his vocals are what others are; he dissed the ” R” to sell records and the looks of it he is drowning in his own sorrows….

    Movies? What he is trying to tell Tyrese something? Tyrese will tap that ass and Ty can out sing him on his worst day!

    R Kelly is still King and don’t you forget it hoodrats…

  19. ZANIA August 18, 2011

    @TUHH Plus Chris is not one dimensional, He made POP SONGS FOR THE FANS WHO INTO POP, HE MADE S** SONGS FOR THE LADIES WHO LIKE THAT TYPE OF MUSIC, HE MADE EUROPE DANCE AUTOTUNE FOR OVERSEAS FANS AND THE FANS IN US WHO LIKE THAT TYPE OF DANCE MUSIC AND HE MADE LOVE SONGS FOR THE LADIES WHO LIKES LOVE SONGS. OH I FORGOT HE MADE RAP SONGS FOR THE FANS WHO LOVE RAP, SO HE DOESN’T JUST MAKE SONGS ABOUT S** OR BRAGGING ABOUT MONEY.

  20. LIFEE August 18, 2011

    @Zania I’m not much of a Trey fan but Chris BARELY sings live sooo —>

  21. CRAZYWORLD August 18, 2011

    No the review said its was 75%% DANCE and only 25% vocals with chris

    chris is the worst singer ever. people hate on rihanna katy perry britney trey but chris sounds like a lil ass baby whos still 16

  22. LOL August 18, 2011

    Someones mad FAME still hasnt gone platinum lol

  23. avitta August 18, 2011

    you all need to stop. chris, trey, nicki, every last one of these celebrities have made sexual songs. that how it is in “HELLAWOOD”!!!!

  24. ZANIA August 18, 2011

    @LIFEE I just went to Chris summer jam concert in my city and I had excellent seats, the man sung live. The only time he didn’t sing live is when he was dancing to ICY and some of his heavy dance songs.

  25. Saywhatuwant August 18, 2011

    @Lol and the rest..

    Say what u want to say At Least Chris can headline his Own Concer/Tours and not ride the coat tails of others. When will Trey ever have his Own tour???? The young man is talented but needs step out of his comfort zone.

  26. LivingIt August 18, 2011

    Umm. Trey has headlined his own tour twice. No he doesn’t do arenas, but most R&B singers don’t.
    But I do agree that he needs to step out of his comfort zone.
    I’ve seen Chris before. He barely sings live and when he does, he sounds out of breath. Trey sounds good live, but terrible on tv. lol! And I don’t know why Trey gets flack for his album going gold and not platinum. He’s doing well for a non-pop r&b singer. Isn’t Chris already trying to release another album? Is FAME platinum yet? oh….

    But this is about Trey. I’m glad he’s doing well for himself. And although this site continues to shade him, y’all always post on him, which is good. Y’all love him on some level.

  27. ZANIA August 18, 2011

    @Livingit, I hate when people compare, Chris album sales with others, This man is building his life back. He had mainstream fans and he trying to get some of them back. You can’t compare him to Trey, he don’t have controversy and building their career back to where he was 2 years ago. Trey had major promo last year with Jay z help and Chris sold about 700,000 to date in 5 months with all the drama and controversy surrounding this album. He promoted this album on 4 major shows and that was it. Other artist are on talk shows night and day and is everywhere promoting their album. His accomplishment is remarkable considering all the bad press and little promotion for his album received. Keep this post about Trey not Chris.

  28. isabella! August 18, 2011

    wow all of the guys are doing horrible!!!!!!!!!!!! i mean look at the leading females everyone of their last albums has gone platinum except beyonce but her album will soon go platinuum don’t you worry. ladies are running the industry right now.

  29. Dee August 18, 2011

    he puts his lips
    he isn’t platinum
    all he talks about is s**

    That’s all you can say about the the main R&B male from 09 to now. He came outta no where and slayed the masses without a number 1 single nor a platnium selling album

    Pop artists who have more than 2 #1’s can’t even sell platinum these days but Trey gets all that flack.

    Clearly this article says the album inspiration will come from the trip to Africa so let’s see if he evolves as an artist. if not then talk s***

    He released 2 sexual songs and 2 regular songs PPP era and pushed almost 900k while others are releasing 934230498 singles and barely going Gold.

  30. Lala D August 18, 2011

    Some of you are mad disrespectable Trey’s success has been major and it’s getting better and developing through the years. I don’t understand what the hate is about, i don’t see how Trey affected you guys. And for people comparing him to Chris Brown DON’T because they are not on the same level they are both very different in comparison of music styles. I don’t understand why people are comparing him to R.Kelly too. R kelly has been in the game for years now…. and your comparing him to a young artist like Trey who is just in the middle of his career. People also need to stand there ground because Trey has been in many tours and has been touring with the likes of Jay Z, Jeezy, Usher and Neyo. So all you haters can sit down and watch his success grow!

  31. Nicecy September 17, 2011
