Is Trey Songz Missing Something?

February 20th, 2008

 

Trey Songz…

Trey Songz should have blown up by now. I mean, the man is a highly sought after collaborator and his own music is well-received. Plus, according to statistics, girls buy more albums, and the ladies love Trey. BET.com recently caught up with the Virginian to hear his side of the story.

“I mean I feel like a translation of image appeal, music and everything into sales right now is at an all-time low,” Trey told BET.com. “You can love an artist to death, but it’s just in a consumer’s mind right now that they don’t have to go buy music. They gotta really love you.” [Read Full Article Here]

So, why isn’t he selling? You tell us. Sound off!

I dont know where they get this from that Trey Songz is not blowing up. I mean I kno many singers that have been out longer than him and are not doin well at all. I personally think they Trey Songz is a great singer and a good artist and has nothing to worry bout as far as “blowing up” now or in the near future. To me he has something that other singers dont because u can really feel him when he sings almost like he is talking directly to you when their are some who just sing to get the check. Plus Trey seems more of the private type and really doesnt like to be seen so that can have alot to do with it too because it seems like the artist with the most going on good or bad sell the most bue Trey is goin be str8 cause he just talented like that.

Trey has a girlfriend…deal with it! His true fans don’t care that he has a girl…just go on the message board on his website. To the person that says he never updates his webpage…check out his myspace page. http://www.myspace.com/treysongz He keeps that updated and even posts about different parties and small venues he performs at when he ain’t touring. He’s real close to his fans and down to earth. Maybe people just don’t know how to handle a MAN that is doing something positive with his life.

Trey Songz my boo and I am loved him to death, but the reason he ain’t really selling is becaue all these lame lil girls is stuck on these young boys music which make him not sale because girls and boys not trippin off him.But I always be here for Trey and I am still gone buy very album you got until you retire for R&B. LOVE YA!

Hey everyone wats up. Now ive bought one of trey songz album (the 1st one) and ive got to say it was amazing. I feel the reason he hasnt been ‘blowing up’ is because of his record label not spending enough on promotion… however being from London we do hear him on our radios (Choice FM) EVERYDAY but because he doesnt do enough shows over here that could add to it.
And him not dancing or being like ne-yo/ chris brown makes him less appealing to the younger generation which I personally feel he doesnt need to do because he is trying something Different (more appealing to the grown females). But unfortunately for him or any other artists, illegal downloading just keeps on getting easier and him ‘blowing up’ is suffering from it.

Trey if you really look on these notes posted i want you to know that yah music is crazy keep doing what you do your true fan#1.

I think Trey Songz is a great artist, he’s very talented and he’s different which is what makes him stand out in the R&B area. I believe the sales aren’t there because the promotion wasn’t that great. I seen maybe 1 “Trey Day” commercial and when “Just gotta make it” came out, I seen 3 commercials for it tops. A factor is also everyone downloading music now.



tiffane Said on

i think that his not getting alot of sells because his not getting the people who got the money and can go by the cds because i got to and all white school and when i talk about trey songz pretty much all the kids don’t no who he is so i think if he could get a relly hot song out he could make it cause where i live they think all hip hop is rap and they don’t get that it also can be singing



cheryl Said on

hey sweeti i miss you alot what you been doing lately well whenever you get a chance come down to the burg so i can see you

love ya



Tameka Said on

I don’t care what they say about Trey Songz that he is not selling quality music, he is so leave him along. That’s my boi. I really do think Trey Songz looks good. His music is for real. He’s natural. He has a very unique voice. I think he is one of the best solo singer out there.



nunu Said on

probably people are broke…ino ppl getting more cheap…



CHT Said on

i beleive that he doesnt sell bcuz 1 his promotion is like not good, he needs to be promoted a lot more i dont really see him around, and maybe because he doesnt dance i dont know just a thought i mean look at all the r&b singers who dance that sell records, chris brown,usher,michael jackson, even ne-yo, just a thought, and maybe he just doesnt have that thing where people are like “wow hes great i wanna buy his album”! i dont know i bought both his albums cuz i think he is talented



"shu'kat" Said on
