Trey Songz Career
In 2004, he released some multiple mixtapes under the alias Prince of Virginia. One of the mixtapes featured an “answer track” to R. Kelly’s “Trapped in the Closet”, entitled “Open the Closet”. The song gave Songz some notoriety. His debut album, I Gotta Make It was released on July 26, 2005.

It garnered success in the R&B/urban community but failed to make a mark in mainstream music.
The album’s second and final single, “Gotta Go”, was released in July 2005 and reached #67 on the Hot 100 and #11 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, becoming even more successful than his debut single in the R&B/urban community and in the mainstream community.

He then began his work in 2008 on his third studio album with Bryan-Michael Cox, Sean Garrett, Stargate, and Troy Taylor and aimed for the record to be more mature than his first two. Before releasing his third album, Songz released a mixtape titled Anticipation in June 2009 through his blog, which featured songs from his third album.
He had a mixtape from Trey that was released in the summer of 2009, called Genesis. Genesis was a collection of Trey Songz’s first recordings when he was fifteen years old and was released to show his fans the dedication that he had to make a record when he was young.
He released his third studio album, Ready, on August 31, 2009. The album reached #3 on the Billboard 200, selling 131,000 copies in its first week. These are his best first-week sales to date and the album was his first to reach the Top 10 on the Billboard 200.
The album has since sold over 1,000,000 records in the US, earning a Platinum certification from the RIAA in June 2014, becoming his first Platinum album. The lead single from the album, “I Need a Girl”, was released in April 2009 and reached #5 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and #59 on the Hot 100, becoming an R&B/urban hit but not a mainstream hit.
A promotional single, “Successful”, featuring rapper Drake, was released in June 2009 and reached #17 on the Hot 100, becoming Songz’s third Top 20 hit. The single also served as the second and final single from Drake’s EP, So Far Gone. The second official single from his third album, “LOL Smiley Face”, featuring Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em and Gucci Mane, was released in August 2009 and reached #51 on the Hot 100 and #12 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.
The third single from the album, “I Invented Sex”, featuring Drake, was released in October 2009 and reached #42 on the Hot 100 but #1 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, becoming his first single to top that chart. Like the first two singles from the album, it achieved success in the R&B/urban community but only some mainstream success. Charted within the Billboard Hot 100, and topped the R&B chart.
The fourth single from the album, “Say Aah”, featuring rapper Fabolous, was released in January 2010 and reached #9 on the Hot 100 and #3 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The single has become Trey’s highest-charting single on the Hot 100 and one of his most successful singles on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.
He also collaborated with R&B singer Amerie on her song “Pretty Brown”, the third single from her fourth album, In Love & War. The fifth and final single from the album, “Neighbors Know My Name”, was released in February 2010 and reached #43 on the Hot 100 and #4 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. A sixth single, “Yo Side of the Bed”, was going to be released in June 2010, but its release was canceled due to unknown reasons.
The music video, featuring singer Keri Hilson, was filmed and released, however. Songz was also the opening act for Jay-Z on his Jay-Z Fall Tour in late 2009. The album was nominated for Best Contemporary R&B Album at the 52nd Grammy Awards in 2010, but lost to Beyoncé’s I Am… Sasha Fierce.
