Trey Songz reigns on Trey Day! Equally up to par as his debut album, I Gotta Make It, if not greater! The album starts off with this amazing introduction from Bun B, of UGK, followed by a suit of sonic sounds and vast harmonies; Trey introduces a different side of him prior to I Gotta Make It, a combination of rapping and singing, with songs like “Long Gone Missin’”, the smash single “Wonder Woman” (produced by Danja) and, my favorite, “No Clothes On”. =D

Now, halfway into the album, it takes a more slow and seductive route with songs like “Sex For Yo Stereo,” “Last Time,” “Can’t Help But Wait,” and “Grub On”. The album next goes up tempo with “Fly Together,” another favorite of mine, featuring Jim Jones. Next is “Store Run,” a nice melodic Dre & Vidal production. This song I really like though, “Missin’ You,” mainly because it’s a Stargate production – I knew it, like the back of my hand, you can totally tell from jump! Anyway the album makes its culmination with “Role Play” and the Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis production “We Should Be”.

BOTTOM LINE: Overall the album has a lot of variety compared to I Gotta Make It, I see more growth and uniqueness with harmonies, it’s just a real smooth R&B album – it’ll be a nice gift for your guy’s birthday or whatever. Make sure you get Trey Day in stores October 2nd or you can pre-order the album via the links above! See my album review for J. Holiday’s Back Of My Lac after the cut!

MARY J. BLIGE – “JUST FINE”

Mary J. Blige does it again with this song, “Just Fine,” the first single lifted from her forthcoming studio album Growing Pains. The track was produced by Jazze Pha and Tricky Stewart, who is also responsible for Rihanna’s “Umbrella,” I think it’s a nice, feel good joint just like Mary said. I don’t know what it is, but I get Michael and Janet listening to this, that’s a good thing though! I love them – that’ll be so dope if Mary can get them on the remix! Forreal, how dope would that be?
