With Chris Brown back full-force, Trey Songz,  the man at one time touted as his replacement, is shifting gears.

Having cultivated a small audience by way of sexually-charged lyrics and near-nakedness, the self-styled “Trigga” declares ‘Sex Ain’t Better Than Love’ in his latest video.

And though the crooner is gearing up for the release of his new single ‘Heart Attack’ and its housing album ‘Chapter 5’, this cut is actually lifted from last year’s ‘Inevitable’ EP. (Don’t worry, we never heard it either).

A genuine thrust to mature musically or a contrived step now that his once-plush spot has been reoccupied?

Whatever the case, taste the contradiction below…

If there’s one thing Toni Braxton knows, it’s how how to serve up “diva fierce”.

Case, point, her breathtaking shoot for ‘She Knows’.

The music maestra strikes many a hot tamale pose for the site’s ‘Where’s My Sock?’ campaign, which serves to benefit the Autism Speaks charity.

Over the years, the ‘I Heart You’ singer has been vocal about issues pertaining to Autism, a condition her 9 year old son Diezel lives with.

Great to Ms. Braxton support such an important cause. It’s also important you flip the hood to see more from the fierce shoot!

Chris Brown is gearing ready to release an album, which can only mean one thing – a Trey Songz‘s release cannot be too far behind. ‘Chapter V’, the upcoming album from ‘Mr. Steal-Yo-Girl’ will be lead by the yet-to-be-heard first single, ‘Heart Attack’.

‘Attack’ is expected to premiere March 26th via the R&B crooner’s Twitter.

With a new era on its way, Songz’s fans can’t help but wonder what type of artist he’ll present himself as this time around. His shirtless gimmick and over sexualized on-stage antics can only carry him so far. Indeed, many are already beginning to grow tired of his transparent artistry. As do most artists promoting their latest work, Songz touts ‘Chapter V’ to be his greatest undertaking yet.

We’ll see.
