My nephew Sam from across the pond sat down with R&B crooner Trey Songz for an interview earlier this week at the Atlantic Records HQ in London, England.
He writes:
A somewhat restrained [read: arrogant] (and at times irritable) Songz, appeared reluctant to answer questions about his much-publicised feud with R. Kelly, as well as questions about his gay fanbase. Still, the Grammy nominee spoke more freely about his forthcoming album, his response to claims that his success is due to solely to his ’sex appeal’, kissing Keri Hilson and Toni Braxton, and much more. An ‘interesting’ watch to say the least.
In my opinion, Trey Songz is an arrogant lame who does not know what it means to humbly accept his newfound fame with grace. If it wasn’t for the fact that his CD barely went gold, none of us would be talking about him.
Source: TGJ
His album only went gold? WOW……I thought he went PLATINUM since they released like every song on his album as a single!
Well, I don’t blame him. I wouldn’t want to answer such questions either!
His mixtapes are better than any of his actual albums
and he was always doing the sex appeal ..IMHO…
@Civil I agree… I have all his mixtape…

TELL ‘EM SANDRA!

You been on point latley! LOL.
Oh so now you gotta be interviewed in shades huh? Was there sunlight? Please tell me his pupils had erupted?? There has to be a legitimate excuse :praying:
LMAO at this posting
Sandra you are a fool…heading to Sam website to read article now!!
If it weren’t for Chris Brown’s fatal relationship drama, Trey’s album would be a flop.
he better slow down
i have never got the hype over trey songz. but i really liked his last cd. at the jayz concert, the girls were going crazy for trey and we just shrugged.
IM SURE IM THE ONLY FEMALE ON THE PLANET THAT THINKS TReY SONGS IS NOT SO SEXY

HW’S WAY TOO SKINNEY FOR MY TASTE- JUST SAYIN
@Krysi…I agree and I love the TGJ..Trent keeps it real.
He sounds tired. He does not need to start drinking his own koolaid like Chris Brown. It’s not cute, and he has not been in the game nearly long enough.
I really dont care for Ready, I liked TreyDay much better. Folks was sleeping on him when he put that out.
*watched 1min of the interview* and if he just got off a plane and went shopping and didn’t get sleep ..why wouldn’t he wear shades…those eyes probably look a hot stinking mess….
What beef this nucca had R. “The ‘Don’ of R & B” Kelly? I ain’t heard nuthin bout that. Why these R&B cats be tryin to come at Kellz like they some sort of two bit rappers or something?
Can’t none of these fools hang with Kellz!
Personally I don’t see what all the hype is about dude. I like a few of his songs BUT his singing is average at best. Too me he sounds like someone that is trying too hard to get his Jodeci on. Also, the being over sexual on almost everything I have heard from him makes me think he is uncomfortable with his sexuality.
Ciara looks so handsome without her weave…….
he got on my oliver peoples glasses
@Val
Um, nooooo!!! I’m with you on that! I happen to like skinny guys (Tip, baby dady, current boyfriend)….but he is just not appealing. Too much saccharin!!! :homoswitch:
@ Man, R. Kelly IMO, has never been the “Don” of R&B. The child molester and statuatory rapist of R&B is more accurate.
I like Trey and R kelly. I agreed with what Trey said about R Kelly. I love R Kellys last cd but before that he had fallen off musically IMO as well. Trey is on record more than once giving Kells props and saying how much he respects his work etc. People just wanted to blow something up that was nothing
I will be watching Treys special on MTV
Can’t none of these fools hang with Kellz!
———————————————————
I have to agree with this statement, though I have to agree with the Cinderella statement as well…..lets just say the R.Kelly BEFORE the child molester R.Kelly was exposed can NOT be fukked with.
I think Trey is fine…..but I despise arrogance.
Sandra maybe he’s tired of answering the same DAMN ?’s bout his sexuality and R Kelly seeing as he’s ur kin I’m sure he waz askin ?’s u might have told him to ask and seeing as how the R Kelly stuff was so 2 yrs ago maybe he should have came wit some better shish. Also, I thought Trey cd did go platinum
I read something where Trey did say he patterned his style after R Kelly but didn’t know why everyone was making a big deal out of it since “R Kelly got his style from Aaron Hall (of Guy)”…apparently Kells didn’t like that too much….
@ 17
Ciara looking “handsome”…
R. Kelly’s music is shitty now compared to what he used to make…I had no issue with Trey calling him out about that
I too think that Trey’s success was built on CB’s fall from grace
***shi.tty
@ Daisy, I agreed with what Trey said about R. Kelly too. I mean R. Kelly been in the game forever and has written/made some of the best music and then to hop on that auto-tune thing? I was like come on you are a leader in this game, what the heck you doing following some new dudes trend?
@ Missy…..I loved his first album. I knew of Trey when he had the braids lol. I thought I was the only one that bought it!
As a non Trey fan I think he would have made it big even without the drama what happened to CB…CB music from his last album was mediocre to all of his other albums and he “allegedly” made those songs before the incident…
Tremaine may come off as arrogant but I think he is level headed and not all the way arrogant…
@ Man
The beef was that Trey felt as though R. Kelly wasn’t making any real music anyone, only club joints, not using his full potential.
I’m no fan of any artist; if I like the song I will listen. In regards to Kel’s, calling him a molester and such…I’d like to see one woman who can tell me she has never dated a man MUCH older than her as a teen…please SpeakUp!
I was going to school in VA when Trey released his first album. I got the chance to see him and Chris Brown in concert for free. I thought then, they were destined for big things. Poor Chris.
@Mean- And he was skinnier than this…He built up some muscles over the years…. *whispers* I didn’t buy his album…I liked his songs but I am too cheap to buy people’s albums…
If you don’t have anyone to run against in a race, you automatically win right? I mean, seriously. Who else is out here for the girls to swoon over? Justin Bieber?
He didn’t go PLATINUM? I’m suprised at that…..
His arse was over-saturated this year, fo sho!!!!
I’m no fan of any artist; if I like the song I will listen. In regards to Kel’s, calling him a molester and such…I’d like to see one woman who can tell me she has never dated a man MUCH older than her as a teen…please SpeakUp!

Me….The oldest guy I date was 4 years older and that in life period. Are you saying that majority of teens date someone much older? If so, I’d have to disagree
It’s one thing to date an older man, it’s a completely different thing for that older man to film yall having sex and pis.sing on you! She must have REALLY wanted him because that’s some nasty ish. ***cues Dave Chappelle’s “Let Me Piss On You”***

*raises hand* Is that unusual??
I think the women here would agree when I say, not all females dated older men when they were younger?? Younger men yeah…when THEY got older, but not all women like older dudes.
only gold? wow, that’s disappointing,considering they released every damn track, including the bonus track, and several remixes. wow.
maybe on the next cd he’ll sing about something other than sex. every song damn near. sure, i want to bed the hell outta him, but even I wanna know what’s going on back at the ranch after a good sweaty rump in the sack. his whole cd was about sex.
The beef was that Trey felt as though R. Kelly wasn’t making any real music anyone, only club joints, not using his full potential.

This is what annoys me about him! Who the phuk are you? You haven’t been in the game long enuff to critique anyone, especially Kell’s. Not only is he a musical genius IMO, but he has written HITS for some of the biggest stars to date. This fool want to question someone’s potential? But, the song that puts him on has the same formula as 10 other songs (girl, it’s your b-day, we in the club, let’s drink, let’s :hump:) and the hook is Say Aaah. Yeah, ok! I been listening and
ing to Kells since I started phukn. 15 years ago…..

Seriously, during my senior year I dated someone 27 and I was 17…Now that I am older/wiser it grosses me out but at the time it was all good. I think a lot of woman can relate. I don’t completely knock Kel’s for the mishap. It was fun for me while it lasted!
Trey Songz had the nerve to blast (my homeboy) R Kelly for using AutoTunes but he also said he didn’t have beef with him. Trey said now that Kellz stop using the AutoTunes he’s good again.
Fukk Trey for steppin to the King of R&B.
SEXY ass

@Al-ameera
Im right behind you at 2 years older….and I wish I hadn’t done THAT!
Old dudes give me the creeps.

@ Krysi, I totally agree. Where I was from if you were in Jr High or High School, you generally date a popular guy from your school. It was only the fast tail girls (as my grammy would say) that was 15 dating a guy that was 21…as a point of clarification is that considered MUCH older?
Her and Foxy really kill me still wanting to live off a legacy from 10 years ago. Yeah ya’ll switched the game up in the 90’s…News flash!!! It’s 2010. Again, now what?

Many people are dealing with demons…only they aren’t on film with it…or busted by the paparazzi yet.
________________________________________________
So true…both Kellz and they girls he peed on need
The Real of King of R&B is Maxwell, IMO. He makes beautiful music w/o having to be vulgar and risque. He doesn’t rely on gimmicks and publicity stunts and is very humble. If D’Angelo would have left the drugs alone and focused on making incredible music, he could have been on top of things.
So Lil Kim is going in on Nicki for stealing her style AGAIN. Now I am not Nicki fan and DO agree that she has totally swagger jacked her but Kimmy, scooter pooh, you ain’t made an album in a zillion years. We get she stole your whole sh*t but now what? Make some music already
————————————————————————-
OK YOU KNOW WHAT…FUKK THIS
first of all it wasn’t KIM’s style to steal it was BIGGIE’S IDEA in the first place for her to look like a fool and rap about being a HOE!! I understand that it must be hard to watch someone make money in your place but unless you’re in the studio dropping some heat for your next album why the fukk should you bother? SHE AIN RAPPING about letting 50 niccahs CUM in her and having to get rushed to the hospital because of it…can somebody just give the girl her props and keep it moving. She tries to be original with acting out and people complain, she tries to dumb herself down and people complain….the bottom line is she is better than every female rapper that has dropped an album in the last 4 years…..and thats only 2 TRINA CDs!
@Cinderella…I agree! Maxwell been making hits! So ready for SUMMER to be released!!
Hey Corp! That’s true…he had not one, not 2, not 3, not 4 but MANY tapes! SMH…he still got off
I guess ppl missed the interviews where he gave Kells mad PROPS and said he was the King he just wanted to see him back on top and I again I agreed with such wasn’t a diss at all
I like thin and cut frames so Trey is just right by me
I like Treys mixed tapes as well but I liked his other cds as well
Can ppl let both CB and Trey be GREAT!!
LOL @ Civil! Nah R. Kelly did make good music. I remember singing “You remind me of my jeep, I wanna ride it….” that was my jam! Didn’t Aaron Hall discover him or put him on because either him or his brother was in the group wit Kellz called Public Announcement?

I’m a grown woman now and my husband is 9 years my senior. My parent(s) used the same term (fast tail girl) but it wasn’t based on anyone’s age, it was about WHAT/WHO you were doing at your age (virginities lost, having babies, etc).
It’s not cool but I can not be a hypocrite and judge him like I’ve never done it as well.
——————————————————————-
nothing wrong with being true to yourself
but not all women have lived your life babe.
R Kelly wrote songs for Michael Jackson and other artists. He has accomplished more number 1’s and more success than any other R&B male performer in our current generation other than Mike (the G.O.A.T.)
@Cinderella
I love me some Maxwell too, and DeAngelo back in the day. *Fanning myself thinkn bout the “How does it feel?” video* I am also a HUGE fan of Musiq S (one of the very few artists I don’t buy bootleg or wait for someone else to get so I can burn it).
@ Free to speak, But now it grosses you out? Why, I’m going say, probably because now that you are older and wiser you know that you were a silly teenage GIRL and a GROWN azz man took advantage of you and manipulated your lack of age and wisdom in the situation.
Also, what could a man of almost 30 want with a girl of 17? It’s…UGH
And just because a lot of teen girls do it (not sure I believe it but for the sake of argument) it still doesn’t make it right or legal. They say that when teen girls have relations with much older men it stems from some former abuse-Not saying this is your case at all.
I don’t consider Maxwell R&B…..he’s more so neo-soul! But he is GREAT!!! I loved his last album. Alot of ppl sleep on Eric Benet but he is just as talented but doesn’t get much shine. I think Kellz would have to be the most logical person for the title. He dominated the 90’s and the earlu 2000’s!
Eric Benet–“Chocolate Legs” that’s on of my
songs right there!

No you did NOT do it, you were taken advantage of, you were the victim in the situation (for lack of a better way to put it). Teens are silly, hormonal people, I don’t expect too much more from them and it is up to the adults in their lives to guide them on the right path, not have sex with or urinate on them!
Doesn’t make you a hypocrite at all.

I love Maxwell, Dwele and Raheem. I cant get enough of them. My husband wants to know why I am still listening to Maxwell’s music from the 90’s
@ Al-Ameera
You are absolutely right, he was older so in certain situations I was manipulated. When I say certain situations, I don’t mean s e x, because I was already active, however he had his own place, I’m younger…can’t stay out overnight, I’m not clubbing to bump into him at a club cheating and etc, hassle-free relationship. Besides that, he did everything that i asked and more. It grosses me out to know that I got played, how naive I was…not too much that he was older because I am still much younger than my husband.
Best Male R&B artist of all time:
1. R. Kelly
2. Marvin Gaye
3. Stevie Wonder
4. Babyface (giving him credit for song writing)
5. Luthor Vandros
He sounds like R. Kelly on the Neighbor Knows My Name song. Blank stare.
it was about WHAT/WHO you were doing at your age (virginities lost, having babies, etc).
————————————————————————
I was legally a grown woman when I lost my virginity when I had my baby as well, some females just weren’t in a rush to give it up….sorry
@AL-AMERA
I think Maxwell’s latest is one of the best albums this decade. I don’t like his older stuff too much but I think he’s slept on. Especially by the younger crowd.
I know I’m like umpteen days late…but I just watched the video for ‘Your Side of the Bed’…whoa, got a little teary. That video was real…good job Trey!
@ Al-Ameera

Urinating on someone as a “s e x u a l” fetish IMO is disgusting just as performing oral s e x on someone to others is. To each it’s own! I WAS guided in the right path, I stand today with a degree, a well paying career, happily married w/ a child, homeowner, debt-free… #justsayin
@ Man……what about Donny Hathaway and Stevie Wonder! Stevie Wonder is my all time R&B artist of all time!
@ Free, I like to put age in context because at different ages frames it’s different. For example, a 15 and a 25 year old is totally different, one can’t even drive or drink yet, they have probably have never had a job, never paid bills, had a bank account, traveled alone, lived on their own…Just haven’t experienced life….Where as a person of 25 probably have done all of those things, finished school, could have graduated college even obtained a master’s degree. What would they even talk about?
Whereas, let’s say a 25 and 35 year are both adults and have probably had similar experiences.
@ Man, I don’t like ranking artists but R. Kelly isn’t on my Best or Greatest list. Donny Hathaway’s ” A Song for You,” is better than any R. Kelly record past,present and future. Hell, “This Christmas,” is better than any record he’s made.
@ Krysi
There are a lot of people who saved their viriginities for adulthood and some who didn’t. I was raised to save it for marriage PERIOD…whether I was an adult (18+ y.o.) or not. And being an adult doesn’t make you responsible, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many adult parents neglicted their children. It’s just so many contradictions to that. I’m not saying at all that young girls should be bumping fuzzies…but what’d you say about a woman who waits until she’s an adult and turns a whore, then what…
@ Man, you don’t the first 3 CD’s by Maxwell? Blasphemy! That’s almost as bad as people talking about Classy T.
@CINDERELLA AND MEAN

_________________________________________
You can say the same thing in the 25 and 35 year category…A 25 year old may not have lived alone, not finished with school, never married and someone 35 has been there and done that. There is absolutely a disadvantage with age difference. That’s where I agree with you BUT maturity levels have to be taken into consideration as well. You age doesn’t make you mature/immature.

Yall gone make me pull out 12 Play!
Cinderella have you heard Christina Aguilera and Herbie Hancock’s version of A Song For You? I think she got Donny beat!
@ Man
Since you’re a man…what’s your opinion/outlook and have you been in a similar situation?
@ Free, I was not attacking your character or accomplishments when I said that, I was being facetious about the sex and urination part (my mouth is real slick). The point I was making is a 27 year old man, no matter how bad you was throwing it at him should have said…She is young enough to be my lil sister and just really doesn’t know what’s good for her, let me school her and protect her. Like Zacharias did Mary when she was pregnant with Jesus. He knew she was in a vulnerable position but choose to guard instead of take advantage of.
Anyway it’s over and done with and you turn out great. No worries.
Nothing like a little friendly debate to simulate the brain and keep you sharp…
@ Brown, I liked their version but prefers Donny’s because of his beautiful voice.
@Man, What “boat” are Donny and Lenny Williams in ?
I just don’t care for Trey Songz. He tries too damn hard to be sexy. Why does he have to be banging on a chic’s body in EVERY SONG. I mean, is there a shortage of words, lyrics, topics???
R. Kelly may be a chester, and slightly illiterate, but the man is a musical genius. He has more hits than Trey could ever dream of. And Kellz basically told Trey’s ass to STFU until he starts winning grammys, so that’s probably why he didn’t want to talk about it. LMAO!!
@FREE TO SPEAK
“Since you’re a man…what’s your opinion/outlook and have you been in a similar situation?”
__________________________________________________________________________________
I think it is perfectly normal for girl to date and marry men several years their senior. We all know men and women “mature” much differently so it’s not suprising to me for a female to date a man older than her or vice versa.
I have dated an 19yr old and I was 27 and it was cool. We had a lot of fun.

It was the same for me…
but what’d you say about a woman who waits until she’s an adult and turns a whore, then what…
——————————————————————–
well sweetie, I wasn’t saying that you were a whore at whatever teen age you lost your virginity…
…but if you’d like to go there….you said you were raised to wait until marriage clearly as a teen you didn’t even consider what you were taught. I wasn’t told an age limit, I was just told to keep my legs closed and that boys only want one thing at that age…….I simply wasn’t interested enough, I had other shyt on my mind i guess…..when it happened I still wasn’t ready, and when I got pregnant I was afraid….but the difference between getting pregnant as a grown up and getting pregnant under legal age is being able to get a job and go to school (college), getting your own place in your own name being able to provide for your OWN CHILD without the assistance of foodstamps and medicaid, being able to have means of transportation, etc… The difference between losing your virginity at a legal age also allows you to be aware of the risks your taking, being able to go to a doctors visit and get paps or STD test as suggested when you are sexually active, not having to wait on your parents signature of consent for treatment or testing, it also reduces the amount of sneaking out of the house to do shyt you don’t have any business, or sneaking niccahs in to do the same, as a grown woman in YOUR OWN SHYT, you can do what you want on YOUR OWN DIME, especially when your already taking care of yourself…doesn’t make you a whore after 18, just makes you prepared for the worse, which ever direction you take on YOUR OWN PATH in life.

Donny had a lot of issues we all know that. Hel.l he was on meds for his mental disease (i forgot which one it was) and then he killed himself. He was working on his next album when that happened. Donny could sang anybody underneath the table! Stevie on the other hand has had numerous hits from many decades! He is the King…..he gotta be cuz no one else can/has touched him!
@FreeToSpeakUp
Stomping with the big dawgs already? 
@ Man, Donny won a Grammy for his duet with Roberta Flack “Where is the love.” And a musical genius like Donny shouldn’t be reduced to how many hits he had.
@ Krysi
Honestly I always knew right from wrong. Didn’t sneak anyone in or out and as a matter of fact, when I lost my virginity I was open with my parents and told them. I kind of was acting out in rebellion and being alone with someone for a few hours, it’s tempting when you starting kissing and such so…… My parents trusted me and I kind of ran with it. But I was allowed to date after 16 y.o.
SN: My high school had a clinic. We could get treated during school hours (paps, STD screening/testing, condoms, birth control, etc.)
@ Free, you can hardly take Man serious. He is, well a man
Whew, I crack me up
Nah, he’s cool I guess. LOL j/k @ Man
@ Krysi, About the Kim/Nicki situation you basically sum’d it up…My thing is either make some new quality music or shut the he.ll up about it. Everyone was influenced by someone and since no idea is original, again, shut it up already
@ Corporate
(Waves) I guess…
@CINDERELLA
“Donny won a Grammy for his duet with Roberta Flack “Where is the love.” And a musical genius like Donny shouldn’t be reduced to how many hits he had.”
______________________________________________________________________________
Yes he should. He is VERY overrated. Sorry, but he is.
@MEAN
“Donny had a lot of issues we all know that. Hel.l he was on meds for his mental disease (i forgot which one it was) and then he killed himself. He was working on his next album when that happened. Donny could sang anybody underneath the table! Stevie on the other hand has had numerous hits from many decades! He is the King…..he gotta be cuz no one else can/has touched him!”
______________________________________________________________________________
I had Stevie ranked third. He can’t claim the sort of hits across decades to that Marvin Gaye can so I have him ahead of Stevie. And R.Kelly has his own hits as well as hits he’s written for others. I have him ahead of Stevie too.
No shame in the bronze medal.
@ Krysi
Honestly I always knew right from wrong. Didn’t sneak anyone in or out and as a matter of fact, when I lost my virginity I was open with my parents and told them. I kind of was acting out in rebellion and being alone with someone for a few hours, it’s tempting when you starting kissing and such so…… My parents trusted me and I kind of ran with it. But I was allowed to date after 16 y.o.

Its all love boo you did the damn thing, be proud…cuz I damn sure am…I could give a fukk what I did, nor when I decided to do it…I DID IT ON MY OWN…and pissed everybody who couldn’t tell me what to do off in the process, I copped my own home at 26 in my own name and the car has been paid off for 2 years now so kudos to all the single mothers who did the same and kudos to the teens who started early and still held their own. and like Corporate said
I like you already 
Cinderella did you see when Roberta Flack performed that song with Maxwell a few months back on an awards show???? She looked dazed and confuzed as fck! You could tell she was readin the teleprompter!
@ Krysi
Likewise
Mean I saw here and was like WTF is wrong with her!!!! Half the time it looked like she couldnt make out the words so she just mumbled so shyt/1 You know like we do when we think we know the words and realize we don’t! We start off singin loud then remember we dont know the words so we real low then get loud again when it comes to a part we know!

Not at all. I’m just saying there has been a lot of teens that have dated guys much older than them. I’m one of them. In regards to R. Kelly, as an adult looking back…It’s not cool but I can not be a hypocrite and judge him like I’ve never done it as well.

It’s not the younger child to place the blame on because typically they’re young and dumb and don’t know any better but Kellz old arse should know darn better and should’ve used better judgement as an ADULT. For his lack of responsibility his will forever be deemed CHESTER THE CHILD MOLESTER!
Side Note: And I’m a huge fan of his music.

SN: I actually had a crush on Kells after “Half on a Baby” video. I think it had something to do with the sheer boxers and “print” displayed.
