Editorial Reviews for 'Ready'
Product Description
Since making his recording debut in 2005, Trey Songz has patiently and artfully crafted some of the most acclaimed and compelling R&B music of the decade. His first two Songbook Entertainment/Atlantic albums, 'I GOTTA MAKE IT' (2005) and 'TREY DAY' (2007), yielded a trio of top ten singles, 'Girl Tonight,' 'Last Time,' and 'Can't Help But Wait.' And when the latter song garnered Trey a coveted Grammy nomination for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance, it marked the validation of the faith shown in Trey by the late Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun, who hailed him as one of 'the most promising R&B artists we have had since we started the company 60 years ago.' Now, with the 2009 release of 'READY,' Trey Songz is more than ready to claim his place in the pantheon of R&B greats. From the street single, 'Brand New,' to his self-described male version of Mary J. Blige's 'Be Without You' in 'One Love,' the Virginian draws on a range of influences to craft an album that will thrill his longtime fans and happily surprise all newcomers to the Trey Songz story. Indeed, with its blend of hip-hop, R&B, and pop - exemplified by tracks like 'Black Roses,' where Trey croons over a distorted guitar - 'READY' demonstrates his growth on every front. The third time around, Trey displays a new vocal maturity combined with his renowned ability to twist notes and keys effortlessly, while presenting an increasing breadth of subject matter.
Customer Reviews for 'Ready'
Job well done
Before this album, I was not really a Trey Songz fan. He really surprised me because he really stepped up his game on this one. Very good songs and definitely one of my favorite cds of this year!
Favorite
This is my favorite cd that came out in 2009. I love this cd. One of the few cds were I don't feel the need to skip a track.
I was suprised...
It's good. I liked almost all the songs and I find that rare. Get it/download it! Unless you're ONLY into old school r&b, you're probably gonna enjoy this. One of the best r&b albums in the past few years.
Ready- Trey Songz' growth
I enjoyed this album. Trey has finally released a R&B hit album. This album shows that he is more than ready to claim his place in the pantheon of R&B greats. This album draws lyrices from such accomplished producers and songwriteers. This album also demonstrated his growth on every front. He displays a new vocal maturity combined with his renowned ability to twist notes and keys effortlessly, while presenting an increasing breath of subject matter. This album has been certified GOLD.
Ok - but can find better anywhere
I will be brief. Trey Songz is a good, be it average, R&B singer with a decent sound and pitch quality to his voice. My only problem is that I can find dozens of better vocalists in any indie band, coffee house, dimly lit bar anywhere in the US, the UK, or anywhere else for that matter. He does not bring anything new or fresh to R&B - - OK, NOT GOOD, AND DEFINETLY NOT GREAT.
