The album opens with “Be My Guest,” and trust, this ain’t Beauty & The Beast, it’s classic Trey gleefully playing the role of Mr. Tracks like “Circles” and “Two Ways” were far from disappointments, but they felt more like sturdy album cuts than blow-away hits.ĭon’t worry, Trey has much more fire in the chamber. I’ll be honest, Back Home‘s early singles didn’t really move me (with one exception that we’ll get to later). No more moonlighting as a rapper, no more jarring party cuts – Trey’s back in his soulful comfort zone. Now with his mentor back back in tow, Trey lives up to the promise of his album title. So-so club anthems and inconsistent LPs clouded his once-promising resume, although 2017’s underrated Tremaine seemed to get Songz back on track. Trey certainly enjoyed his share charting success, but as the decade rolled on, he also seemed to lose focus. Trey found incredible chemistry with veteran producer Troy Taylor, resulting in his third album Ready, beloved Anticipation mixtape and follow up LP Passion, Pain and Pleasure laying the groundwork for a decade of dominance. Trey is finally Ready again.īack in 2009, when R&B was experiencing a changing of the guard, it was Trigga Trey who seemed primed to be the heir apparent to R&B’s throne.
