Though his name may have been flung to gossip mongers speculating the route of his ‘beef’ with Hip Hop’s August Alsina, Trey Songz rises above said mess by keeping mum on the headline-grabbing matter.
Now, in making his presence felt where it counts, the Box Office ‘slaying’ star has scored a sleeper hit with his latest single ‘Na Na‘, now on course to topping the Billboard Hot 100 well before the launch of its supporting album!
Details below…
After helping 2013’s ‘Texas Chainsaw 3D’ pull in $39,093,317 at the Box Office, Songz sits back and watches as ‘Na Na’ grinds towards the ‘Hot 100’ #1 spot after rising six places to #22 in the last week.
This, one week after the cut rose five spots to #30 on the very same chart, shining a light on the cut’s silent but scorching winning streak, set to impact the Top Ten in a fortnight’s time if its fares just as well as it did in the last two weeks.
If it charts any higher than #6, it’ll become the entertainer’s highest charting single since his Nicki Minaj-backed bop ‘Bottoms Up’, which was certified 3x Platinum by the ‘Recording Industry Association of America’ for sales of 3 million units, outperforming Rihanna‘s ‘What’s My Name‘, Mariah Carey‘s ‘Obsessed‘, and Beyonce‘s ‘Why Don’t You Love Me’, released in the same year.
Songz’ chart win comes as he continues work on his sixth studio album ‘Trigga‘, doing so alongside mentor Troy Taylor, who teased the project with the ‘Instagram’ message shared below…
In other chart related news, Lana Del Rey‘s ‘West Coast’ is set to open with US sales of 110,000 units as 27,000 new units sold pushes global sales of ‘Beyonce‘ to the 3,191,000 mark.
This, as Shakira‘s self titled new LP reaches the 322,000 milestone worldwide with 63,000 copies sold in the last week while Mariah Carey‘s ‘You’re Mine’ bids farewell to iTunes 2000 three weeks before the May 6th arrival of its parent album.
Slay a bit Treycee.
Francine Rivers wishes she could.
Frank Ocean? Lmao
I doubt it will go number 1 but maybe top 15 congratulations tho trey.
Not because your fave is a flop means my one is too. #EnemyofProgress
Why don’t you worry about Nayvadia’s sales and keep Tremaine out of your dirty mouth you f****** swine!
WTF? How did he get there without us noticing? Oh that’s right, we were too busy laughing at Local Lana.
West Coast went #1 on iTunes in 21+ countries. Please learn the definition of “local,” since you fave’s biggest hit since 2006 only charted in 2.5 countries.
Hello Rosie, how many arenas has Lana sold out baby? 0? Oh too f****** bad b****.
Dead when most of her European venues were arenas. When will Cierror? Oh wait. She can’t even sell out a ballroom, can’t she?
Wow, sales are really the pits now! Only like 4 songs in the top ten last week sold over 100K. Streaming is really hitting the industry hard.
Anyways, that’s more than most of us really expected from Lana, so I’m proud. We already know she’s not strong with singles, we’ll wait until UV’s first week to really see how this album is faring.
Happy just sold 4 million though.
Nowhere did I mention total sales to date, though. Reading comprehension.
Yesterday “Flop Coast” was #10 on US iTunes….
A day later, today it is #15 !!!
Why is it declining so fast sis?
I told you it will be Out of the Top 30 next week! If she dont drop a video!!!!!
Do ciara fans really have the nerve too come on here and trash talk actual commercially relevant artists?! Wow … Her last few albums have been certified what? … Plastic? Paper weight? I forget lol ya’ll need too get off blogs and get on iTunes and help cici out lmao child byee
Please… #22 is now where near #1 on the Hot 100 especially with Happy, Dark Horse, Talk Dirty, All of Me and Let It Go still dominating 2-3 months later. This song will probably peak inside the Top 20 but no higher than #16 or #17… Loyal has a stronger chance of reaching #1 on the Hot 100 than this song tbh…
P.S. Why Don’t You Love Me was not an actual single, just a video release and What’s My Name was released damn near at the end of 2010 so that song really doesn’t count comsidering most of it’s sales were in 2011
B**** stop, it keeps rising by 5/6 spots every week so it could go there in a few weeks if it keeps doing as well as it has been.
Top 2000 though? kiiiiiii
Still no #1 single? Kiii.
Just because Rihanna is the ultimate singles
artist doesn’t mean every artist has to be. Lile
we always tell you people bought the entire album
FIRST then singles followed. People didn’t buy singles
because they had bought the album already
Wow, sales are really the pits now! Only like 4 songs in the top ten last week sold over 100K. Streaming is really hitting the industry hard.
Anyways, that’s more than most of us really expected from Lana, so I’m proud. We already know she’s not strong with singles, we’ll wait until UV’s first week to really see how this album is faring.
Didn’t mean for that to be a reply. The mobile site is messing up again.
I’m glad you can accept that Lana can’t sell singles. The first step is acceptance.
And the next step is buying You’re Mine on iTunes.
Lets get partition to go gold first
BITTCH I CANNOT WITH THESE COMMENTS!!!! LMFAO!!!
Yall are carrying!
What kind of self drag? So you’re even waiting for Beyonce to outsell Rihanna after just 4 months lmao.
Oh. That was meant for the Failed Lacefronts comment which got deleted lmao.
Go get tha coins Trey but “You’re Mine bidding farewell to iTunes 2000 is the Ultimate death.
When will Lana.
The real question is, when will Cierror? Since this will outpeak Local Party next week.
And don’t forget it will outpeak young and ugly
At least it went platinum. Poor Moo and Cierror.
Mariahs single sales alone s*** on Lanas whole discography.
Singles sales from when? 1898?
Lana will never see another top 20 hit.
And You’re Mine will never see the top 1000 of iTunes again.
Who cares about you’re mine just like 70% of Lanas singles it didn’t do well kii
Coming for a iTunesriah stan? I shan’t and I can’t.
Has Beyonce met her homeless brother yet?
@MimiCarey I think should be asking Matthew
that question
are the ciara stans on here serious? why are they always rude and shading everyone when ciara hasn’t seen the top of any chart in damn near 10 years? lana and mariah > ciara. even on their worst day they s*** on ciara…..
They’re just mad that their fav has to share her boyfriend with 100 other kids and their mommas.
And the H.IV+ are mad that Bey has to share J with Rihanna!
Is Floptition or Flop.O Gold yet?
They’re mad because both of them will sell more than 57K first week.
Not Applause selling more than Flop Coast though!!!
Thats the kii of the week!
back to the topic: the title was sorta misleading. i don’t e this song topping the charts. maybe the urban charts, but the hot 100 i doubt it. but its nice to see urban music making its way back into the mainstream. i hope “loyal” will hit the top 10 next week. that song is hot!!
I’ve notice a lot of urban artist has been slaying the charts lately, but seriously sales are pitiful right now, sell 60k first week and you can expect to have a top 5 album. Adele, Rihanna we need music now.
I think the #2 last week sold less than 30K.
The hive and their pet Rosie are upset kiiii
You’re a troll and a fake Mariah Stan
I’m so sick of that Happy song being #1 it needs to be surpassed now!
The song is overrated like Adele music.
Tell that to the 25 million people who bought 21. S***.
25 million brainwashed bandwagoners. Next
I agree. It was cute for a minute but then radio started playing it every 5 minutes.
Not west coast selling less then APPLAUSE lol
Not Chartflop being discounted to $6.99 AGAIN on iTunes.
Im sure interscope will do the same for ultraviolence.
Born To Die had only one discount and it was after if was available for over two years. Chartflop isn’t even five months old and is already #183 on the charts and getting discounts every 2 weeks or so.
Rosie sis i thought west coast was gonna slaughter applause tho?
Receipts that I said that? No Lana stan on here expected it to go top 10 before Monday.
B**** please you said it in the Gaga post Lmao now you playing dumb d***?
Once again, receipts? Before Monday I only said it would go top 20.
Rosie babe, I already dragged you with
The receipts. You said applause dropped
Off of the charts after a few days, while
West coast was going to number 1. You said
This on Tuesday after you saw Lana enter
The top 10. Not fight for this love selling more
In a day than west coasts in a week tho
OMG why has west coast dropped to #12 from #10 yesterday? Giving me you’re mine tease.
Overexaggerating, much? You’re Mine was out of the top 1000 at this point.
Its #15 on iTubes US babe!!!
SCREEEAAAMMMIINNNNGGGG!!!!!! at west coast dropping to #20 from #15 yesterday in Canada. The white Sade my ass.
Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
In case you missed it,
US chart preview: @LanaDelRey, West Coast 110-120k downloads.
US chart preview: @LadyGaga’s Applause 200-225,000 downloads.
SCREEEAAAMMMSSSSS!!!!!
Bittch, we carried in that August Alyssa post last night!!
It was a kii
Yaaaaas. Not all of Cheryl’s singles selling
More than west coast, in the f****** uk!!
So it’s at #22 and nowhere near being #1?
Samantha with these misleading titles … SMH
@MiMi carey
I’d be mad too if my fav was performing at these venues
The Tabernacle – 2,600 capacity
House of Blues Boston – 2,425 capacity
DYYYYIIINNNGGGGGGGG is this all 4.6 million album sales can get you these days? Meanwhile west coast tumbling down the charts faster than XO.
Not the same weak drags it tried last night. So boring and uninspired, like the basic b****** it bandwagons for every few weeks.
Oh @ Fagbird literally copying and pasting it’s posts from last night.
By the way, the capacity last night was around 3-4x that amount. Stay clinging to the same three venues though!
I can’t AT HIM becoming SUCCESSFUL only after he collaborated WITH QUEEN MARIAH CAREY
Mariah’s IMPACT Is real !!!
Only the TRUE QUEEN
THat Mariah Reign just won’t let up!
Very misleading title.
If only you can do the same thing you did when west coast came out (buy some more copies), it wouldn’t be tumbling down the charts faster than XO.
No, Lana isn’t a singles artist like most of your faves. She’s never been that successful with singles.
You can start properly dragging if UV flops first week.
Gurl, save the excuses. You were running around posting iTunes receipts when west coast first came out and now you’re trying to backpedal, not here for it.
And not “not a singles artist” excuse I’ve heard thousands of times.
In the meantime, West coast still tumbling down the charts even with all your delusions.
OK, but tell me who expected WC to even go top ten before it actually did on Monday? The highest I expected was top 15/20. And at least it didn’t plummet after two days like some of the songs stanned on here do.
I’ll kii if it pulls a “Fancy” and jumps back up in a few weeks or so.
The only way thatll happen is if she drops that video unexpectedly and gets those streams!! Or if you purchase more copies with your extra iTunes accounts!
@Nessa1226
I agree, the title is as misleading as west coast’s hype when it first came out. Already dropped 10 spots and the week isn’t even over yet….I CAN’T
smg.photobucket.com/user/gagawiz/media/GIFs%20part%201/ebonysfaketears.gif.html
Anyways, I’m about to go shopping. Maybe Anthropologie or Zara, IDK what I should buy? Maybe you all should help me instead of perching on Kworb and watching Lana’s iTunes position more than her own stans do.
Really TGJ? This title is extremely incorrect and misleading. What in the world. The song is not #1, and will likely NEVER hit number 1.
It would be awesome if it did, but c’mon a solo Trey Songz hit hitting number 1 when a Nicki collabo Trey hit couldn’t?
I mean props to Trey for this, I noticed this surprise last week, but change this misleading a s s title
August is probably at home crying
Didn’t Beyonce outsell Miley and Gaga so why wouldn’t the Navy drag her for not outselling Rihanna? @ Vee
Texas Chainsaw only made 39 million at the box office? Did they even manage to break even?
Congrats Trey Songz, now your ex boyfriend Augustus will seethe like Rosie finding out her Fav is a lessor to Ciara. Kii..
Self drag again. When did Unapologetic come out compared to Miley, Katy and Beyonce again?
Beyonce had 4. Remember she re released it? I know 4 was awful to the hive but it did happen.
How do you post videos on this site?
Just copy and paste (Youtube) babe!
Girl everytime I try, TGJ has to “moderate” my comment! What do I exactly copy?
You just copy the URL, And when you paste it has to be on its own line
Yesterday “Flop Coast” was #10 on US iTunes….
A day later, today it is #15 !!!
Why is it declining so fast sis?
I told you it will be Out of the Top 30 next week! If she dont drop a video!!!!!
The video will be out Wednesday.
Once again kii if she pulls a “Fancy” and flies back up the charts if Interscope sends it to radio.
Dead at FutureCedric trying to come for a #15 position when that’s still higher than Cierror will ever chart on iTunes. Anyways all this proves is that Lana is not a singles artist, and even if WC bombs hard in the US it will open with at least 2-3x more copies than “Cedric” did first week with less than half the promo.
“it” as in Ultraviolence.
Death at you calling Lana a global act when it’s going number 1 in Botswana, Thailand and Macedonia.
Kiiii
