    Ok I have to just say Trey owes Drake NOTHING!! If anything Drake owes Wayne for his career.Yall some haters that just can't stand to see a young,intelligent black man doing his thing and need to get a life of your own.Sure there are other rnb singers who can sing out rite now but Trey is at the top rite now hate it or love it! Let the ? have his shine..Damn!

    I agree totally

    Trey Songz?!?! He can't even sing. Neyo sings better, Pleasure P sings better, Anthony Hamilton, Maxwell, Musiq Soulchild, Ginuwine(even now), Rkelly(even now), Chris Brown etc. Trey Songz is only getting more exposure because the music industry is blacklisting Chris Brown for beatin' up crazy, ugly ass Rihanna. Look at Trey's new joints...LOL :), Say aah etc. they sound like Chris Brown knockoff songs. Also, Trey's whole style is based off of Rkelly. As an R&B artist, he gets a 4/10. I'm not hatin', I'm just sayin'.

    Trey had 3 solid hits from this last album and about 2 solid hits between his 1st two. Hardly running RnB. He's never gone #1 on the Hot 100 or had a #1 album. He only has 1 RnB #1 hit which was "I invented Sex". Just because mainstream radio is playing out his 3 hits right now doesn't mean running RnB. Usher, Justin, Neyo are running RnB more than Trey right now. 3 Gold albums doesn't = Sitting Atop of the RnB Genre. Oh and for the record:

    Maxwell's last album > Trey's career (In terms of success, hits and sales)

    it wasn't so much me implying Trey's music is better than Genuwine's... It was me never hearing anyone describe genuwine's music or singing ability as Amazing lol, I prolly will never hear that one again in life... Thanks for the laugh though!

    Well, considering the pedestal you have been putting Trey and his music on, you ARE implying that he makes better music than Ginuwine (which is hilarious on it's own).

    But, I should be the one thanking you for all the laughs your thread has been providing me... And many other members, I'm sure. :D

"personally I think he's boring" get the ? outta here ? , that's why I ain't respond to you all thread till the silly ass Genuwine comment you made... Do you dudes listen to music or skim through it?? Then I go out on the front page and the boy got a thread about TQ...

    I was referring to your comment regarding Ginuwine and not your thread title... Which was an implication and not a statement.
    You was the first one in here ready to hate, fishing for a response from the ? but that's what haters do... "personally I think he's boring" get the ? outta here ?
    OR... I was just posting my opinion, with no strings or motives behind it lmao. Hating would be me saying he sucks without a reason. Not only did I NOT say he sucks, I gave you many reasons why I think he's nowhere near as good as you paint him up to be. Seems like the only feelings in here are the ones you are constantly catching. Trey don't love you like you love him, so don't take ? so personal.
    that's why I ain't respond to you all thread
    Damn. Emotional and suffering from Alzheimer's? That would certainly explain how you could forget all the other male R&B artists out there who are far superior than Trey Songz in the game.

    You responded to me many times. You actually addressed me and spoke on Ne-Yo and how he fell off since his first album. We went back and forth, making good points and we decided to agree to disagree. Go back and read all that, it's all there lol.
    till the silly ass Genuwine comment you made
    How can a man who calls himself "The ? ", continue to misspell a male R&B artist's name, even after I spelled it correctly for him numerous times? Ginuwine is a great singer, to me. I don't go around making threads about how a mediocre artist sits atop of the R&B game, though. That's all you, dude. I know you think it's comfy, but get off Trey's ? .
    Then I go out on the front page and the boy got a thread about TQ... Well let me be the first to tell you my man personally nobody gives a ? what you think... That is all
    I hate TQ and own 0 albums of his (never even heard one) except his last one, which I got so I could get that Mamacita track in group rip quality. So, I made a thread about his NEW ALBUM, just like I made the Raymond V Raymond one. It's part of what I do, also (review new R&B albums). Your point? Right, you have none.

    I'll take that last comment of yours, though. Unlike you, I don't want people on here to "care" about what I think and don't give a ? about their opinions lol. You make a thread like this and go hard on people who have an opinion that is different than yours and who respectfully disagree. Just because they don't think Trey is the R&B Messiah and disagree with your taste, they just skim through music? Shatap. Allow me to hold the door open, to your own thread and show your emotional ass the way you take to get the ? outta here.

    @Mr. R&B you took it way to far... I'm just healthy debating.. I ain't tryna go hard on nobody as you put it... And I'm backing all my ? up wit facts... Trey delivering great music in a drought!! His catalogue is already vast!! He already got tracks wit Aretha... Did you forget he came out in 05?? These other dudes you saying I forgot about I actually haven't forgotten at all! I just went out and bought Raymond vs. Raymond it doesn't compare! You talkin bout somebody that been in the game for damn near 20 years and is 5 albums in... How Jay said it? 5 in 20 years ? I can divide... And really only 2 albums live up to the hype surrounding this guy... 8701 and Confessions... He don't write nuttin and got 3 duds... What makes him on top?? His dance moves?? Obviously I'm debating wit people who don't purchase albums... You must only know singles and what your being spoon fed by the higher ups...


    And this all started because I said "lol @ genuwine being amazing" that statement has nothing to with Trey songz at all! It is an implication of nothing... Like I said I never heard anybody call him or his voice amazing... He had a few hot tracks and that was that... Trey Songz gave his fans and his haters Anticipation for FREE and it arguably the best R&B album released in 09... That is a FACT! The only other albums that cam be mentioned are Blacksummer and Ready



    You people don't know what y'all missing that's all I'm telling y'all


    Lol @ no hits: Gotta go, gotta make it, all the if's, comin for you, etc etc that's the first album

    Calling people "haters", insulting their knowledge of music and saying nobody cares about their opinions, simply because they have a different one than yours, is not "healthy debating". Only person who has taken it too far, is yourself. If you can dish it out, you gots to be able to take it, too.
    These other dudes you saying I forgot about I actually haven't forgotten at all! I just went out and bought Raymond vs. Raymond it doesn't compare!

    Why you talking to me about Usher? I didn't even mention him when talking about the top R&B males in the game. :/

    No-one cares.
    And this all started because I said "lol @ genuwine being amazing"
    Nothing "started" with you saying "lol@Ginuwine being amazing". I just replied to it, that's all. Then you blew up lol.
    that statement has nothing to with Trey songz at all!
    Neither does TQ's new album. So, stay on topic.
    It is an implication of nothing...
    When you are laughing at someone calling Ginuwine "amazing" after clearly putting Trey Songz on a pedestal, that is an implication that you believe Trey is better than Ginuwine.
    Like I said I never heard anybody call him or his voice amazing... He had a few hot tracks and that was that...
    False. Ginuwine had a few hot ALBUMS.
    Trey Songz gave his fans and his haters Anticipation for FREE and it arguably the best R&B album released in 09... That is a FACT!
    First of all: Anticipation is not an "album", it's a mixtape. Secondly: How is something that is "arguably" a "fact"? That doesn't make sense. That's not a fact; it's your opinion. Just like my opinion is that Anticipation is nothing special and neither is Trey. Learn the difference between fact and opinion. No wonder you think you're backing your ? up with facts lmao.

    This dude catches feelings one post, then is all cool and preacher like on the next lol. I'm done with dude; y'all can have him back.

    I never called you a hater, insulted ya music knowledge or any of that... Until after the Genuwine statement... What makes Anticipation a mixtape?? The fact that it wasn't available fir retail sale?? It was about 13 all original cohesive tracks composed And performed by Trey Songz. It was an album... Secondly I didn't say it was THEE best, which would make it opinion, I said "it's arguably one of the best" which is fact and can be proven through experimentation...


    Bottom line is you caught feelings when I said I never heard anyone refer to genuwine as amazing and now you tryna make it like I caught feelings... But if you go back in all my posts I never dissed you, your opinion or anyone else's... I definetly never called anyone a hater soley because they don't like Trey... That is your opinion which you have a right too. But you can not be a fan and still give credit where credit is due... Trey Songz sits atop the R&b male genre, the only real rebuttal you've posed even though you posted in here many many times is Maxwell who is not of the R&B Genre and Alicia Keys who is a female...
