Trey Songz- Ready

"Ready" is here!!!!!!!! Today Trey Songz dropped his highly anticipated album "Ready." Mr.Songz had twitter in a completely uproar yet again at 12am this morning. His fans (myself included) went stupid Ham promoting his album. From retweeting Trey's tweets to making him a trending topic on twitter. Which goes to show just how hard Trey's fans go for him and how much love and support they have for him.

"Ready" is the third album from Grammy-nominated singer Trey Songz. It features the hit singles "I Need A Girl", "Successful" feat Drake, "LOL :) " feat Gucci Mane & Soulja Boy Tell Em' and "Invented Sex" feat Drake.



"Initially when I thought of the concept for Ready, I knew I was going to cut my hair. I knew I was going to get in the gym. I knew that this was my third album. I've had two before. So everyone who I knew I've came in the game with surpassed me as far as accolades and things of that nature ........ I think Ready was stating that I was ready for things in that nature. Now, I think we actually worked to the point where the definition of Ready is for the world, because everybody is just as ready as I am...... " ~Trey Songz



Ready showcases Trey's growth not only as an artist but as a man as well. From his creative sound to his explosive lyrics and smooth salutry vocals, you can't help but to feel every part of his heart and soul.

READY is a great piece of music, and it has the power to revive real R&B music, but only if we praise it as so. This album has everything you ever want in a well-rounded disc: club anthems ("Say Ahh" feat Fabolous) ballads ("Jupiter Love") and declaration songs (“Holla If You Need Me").

I don't have any favorites off the album because I love the entire album but here are a few singles on the album to look out for: "Panta Droppa [intro]", "Neighbors Know My Name", "Invented Sex", "Does He Do It", "One Love", "Love Lost", and "Yo Side of the Bed."

Ready was leaked about a week before its release date but that didn't ruin the buzz people had about Trey's album. His real fans resisted temptation and didn't download the bootleg version of the album instead they wanted till today to cop it. It's because of that, that Ready is doing so good on iTunes and is selling like crazy.

I pre-ordered the album so I had the opportunity to listen to it a day before it was officially released and I haven't stopped playing it since. Ready is that album you can put on and just let play. It definitely takes you on a journey from beginning to end.


So this is what you need to do.....go out and buy Trey Songz- "Ready" album (here its selling out already), follow him on twitter @SongzYuuup, and follow the Songbook Family that helped make this album a great piece of work: @troytaylor86, @skmusic, @ironcheftone, @miles777, @reddstylez, @beimaejor, @youngyonny.




Also make sure u take a pic of yourself buying the album either in the store or via Itunes and send it to treysongzfans@me.com!

R&B's Fallen Angel: Remembering Aaliyah

It's hard to believe that 8 years ago today we lost Aaliyah Dana Haughton in a terrible plane crash at the tender age of 22. I remember hearing the news on the radio while i was in the car with my cousin and couldn't what I was hearing. I grew up listening to Aaliyah's music so when I heard the news about her passing it felt like a lost family memeber, thats just how connected Aaliyah made you feel to her.


So its only right that we pay homage to this very beautiful and very talented singer that was taken from us way to soon.



Everyone was introduced to Aaliyah via her debut album "Age Aint Nothing But A Number." Which included hits like "Back & Forth", "Age Aint Nothing But A Number", and "At Your Best (You Are Love)."


Aaliyah's second album "One In A Million," was notable for being her breakout album and a major milestone in the careers of songwriter/producer Missy Elliot and Tim "Timbaland" Mosley. It featured smash singles like "If Your Girl Only Knew", "One In A Million", "Got To Give It Up", "4 Page Letter", "Hot Like Fire", "Choosey Lover", and "The One I Gave My Heart To".

ΛΛLIYΛH is the self-titled third and final studio album from Aaliyah, released by Blackground and Virgin Records on July 17, 2001. Singles on this album included "We Need A Resolution", "Rock The Boat", "More Than A Woman", and "I Care 4 U."

Time magazine named Aaliyah one of the ten best albums of 2001. The magazine wrote of the album, "A siren of subtlety, never wailing when a whisper would do, Aaliyah blended genres with alluring ease. For her, hip-hop/soul and muted alternative rock came together as easily as lovers interlocking fingers. A plane crash claimed Aaliyah's life in August, but on her last CD her soul is forever in flight."



"I Care 4 U", and "Ultimate Aaliyah" are two compliation albums that were later released by Blackground Records. Both of which contained all of Aaliyah's hits. "Ultimate Aaliyah" also contained a second disc which included several of Aaliyah's tracks that were included on both soundtrack albums and on studio albums for labelmate Timbaland, as well as interviews, special features, etc.


Aaliyah "Babygirl" you are TRUELY missed by your fans and family. And your memory will forever live in all of our hearts.


Below is a poem that Rashad (Aaliyah's brother) wrote for her:
