R&B crooner Trey Songz is kicking off the new year with a spirit of gratitude.

Reflecting on his eventful 2015, the ‘Slow Motion’ singer presses rewind to give fans a rundown of last year’s offerings with a video for ‘Blessed,’ a tune found on his ‘To Whom It May Concern’ mixtape.

Undoubtedly lifted to tide fans over until the release of ‘Tremaine,’ the follow-up to 2014’s ‘Trigga,’ the song’s black-and-white shot video comes as the latest directorial effort of Mel D. Cole.
