What do you dudes think of "Blind" though.
― Tim F, Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:09 (thirteen years ago) link
my mans is seriously so boring & oftentimes so aggressively anonymous that i have a hard time saying that he does a certain type of song well -- i think material makes or fails him, not the other way around

It's pretty fucking earnest.
― Tim F, Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:16 (thirteen years ago) link
the best trax on his album are the earnest ones

ok one of those earnest songs has him mimicking a doorbell but w/v

i still don't think i could ever bring myself to listen to a trey songz album
― The Reverend, Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:19 (thirteen years ago) link
neither did i, before i actually listened to this one. it's worth it!
― lex lex lex lex lex on the track BOW (lex pretend), Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:20 (thirteen years ago) link
i like as much earnest stuff (i need a girl, can't help but wait, can't be friends) as i do jokey stuff (bottoms up/say ahh, i invented sex, neighbors know my name)
― gimme schefter (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:21 (thirteen years ago) link
oh yeah, "can't help but wait" is good. forgot about that one.
― The Reverend, Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:21 (thirteen years ago) link
i think it's hard to get through the whole thing in one sitting -- it's long and kinda monochromatic & i've had to force myself to go back & hear it in order for songs to start separating themselves in my mind
he's kind of an artist right now where i end up loving like pretty much every single, and you could cobble together a pretty dope 13 or 14 song album out of his last two albums combined, but neither of them are actually all that great, tho i think the last one is prob slightly better
― gimme schefter (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:22 (thirteen years ago) link
oh i pretty much just listen to either the first third or, more often, the last third of the new trey - def a bit too much for one sitting. he sounds like he pushes himself a lot more not to sound generic when he's being earnest - re: his lighter stuff, i don't dislike songs like "say ahh", and if i ever heard them on the radio i'd probably be more fond of them, but they're not that special.
― lex lex lex lex lex on the track BOW (lex pretend), Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:25 (thirteen years ago) link
everytime i hear "bottoms up" i feel like trey must have sheepfacedly went back to the lab after doing "say ahh" and been like "ok i probably could have been a bit less obvious about ripping off 'blame it'"
― The Reverend, Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:25 (thirteen years ago) link
hearing "say ahh" on the radio a bunch taught me to hate it. it reeallly doesn't hold up.
― The Reverend, Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:27 (thirteen years ago) link
i think my problem with "can't be friends" is he's being a sleeze and trying to pass himself off as sympathetic. like...i have no problems with r&b dudes being sleezy as long as they kind of own it? but when they try to have it both ways it triggers my gag reflex.
― The Reverend, Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:30 (thirteen years ago) link
ha i have not paid enough attention to the lyrics of that song tbh
― gimme schefter (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:33 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah the last third of the recent album is very good
― gimme schefter (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 7 December 2010 10:34 (thirteen years ago) link
i think my problem with "can't be friends" is he's being a sleeze and trying to pass himself off as sympathetic.
this strikes me as pretty real.
I think it's a great album.

i like the new album pretty well

"Can't Help But Wait" is great because Trey is the 2nd hammiest vocalist in R&B after Beyonce and it taps into that while still utilizing his young man swag -- the intro with the pew pew pew lazer gun noises and deadpan "check it out" leading right into those verses full of over-the-top vibrato and the ridiculous emphasis of lines like "you're worth MUCH MORE THAN THE OCCASIONAL I LOVE YOU!!!!!" that tension is missing from "Can't Be Friends," which is just pure pork.

ha i remember the first time i saw trey songz it was in the video for scarface "girl you know" and my first thought was like man that dude needs to get punched in his stupid smug face reaaaally hard....my second thought was goddamn scarface has gotten fat as hell.

can someone listen to ace hood 'sex chronicles the mixtape' for me and tell me how awesome it undoubtably is

I did, and it is indeed really awesome.

"Goon Sex" wasn't quite as good as the title promised, but "Sex Dance" is precisely as good as its title.

i dare you to listen to it and not think he's singing 'making love feces'
esp when she dirties up the sheets

"don't it feel good when i touch on it" has weird sexual predator connotations to me

i usually think of his ridiculous stupid vibrato as turning vowel sounds into R's "makin LRRRV FRRRRRCES"

The Weeknd thread is reminding me how great the Anticipation mixtape is, but I actually prefer the showboating, Apollo-rocking Trey Songz of Passion Pain and Pleasure over Anticipation's eerie, man-in-space act.
My favorite song on the album is probably its most over-the-top. I love how it cycles through so many conflicting moods and emotions yet brings them all to this great resolution:

2005: "Girl Tonite" (Twista feat. Trey Songz) 0
This is a good song even tho MM is just singing Ready For The World. Dunno why I never repped for it earlier.
― raggett neds of your summer dress (The Reverend), Tuesday, 4 February 2014 05:13 (ten years ago) link
it was such a weird witless "Slow Jamz" retread but yeah not unpleasant per se.
the new Trey single where he sings "Fu-Gee-La" over a DJ Mustard beat, though, fuck that forever.
