In an interview with Yahoo Entertainment about the album, Trey Songz said “It’s my every emotion at this point in my life, it’s the good, the bad, the ugly, it’s the beautiful, its last night, its love, it’s hard-hitting beats, but beautiful keys. Its beautiful melodies, it’s so personal to me as well, of course I have songs that are impersonal, that are fun records that just want to get people to move and dance, but as you get to the depths and the layers of the album. We live in the days where people want to hear about the flaws and not perfections. The best albums happen to be the ones with strong lyrical content. The 17 track project is a blend of hip-hop and R&B, something that he’s successfully done well in the past. But what’s a Trey Songz album without them girls? Aha, same formula but that’s what works for him. Stand out tracks from the album are “Disrespectful” and “SmartPhones,” as well as “All We Do” and “Y.A.S. vocally, and production wise, Trigga is a solid commercial album. Some good turn up tunes you can enjoy from the album. Get the album here and you’ll know what we’re on about: http://goo.gl/8bbfHg

Artist: Kelis

Album: Food

Food is the sixth studio album by Kelis, she describes the album as, “a kind of unspoken lovefest. In case you didn’t know, Kelis is a chef, maybe that’s what also influenced the album title and tracklist? It’s always cute when artists feature their children in their songs, we’ve seen Alicia Keys, Beyonce, Coldplay’s “Chris Martin” do it too. The album’s opening track “Breakfast” is introduced by Kelis’ four-year-old son Knight Jones, who speaks the monologue; “Hey guys! Are you hungry? My mom made food. The first track is catchy which makes you want to listen to the album to see it will be consistent throughout. Kelis’ husky voice is still the one to reckon with, with this album she delivered a plate full of soulfood for the soul. It’s kind of hard to box the album into one genre, or maybe it doesn’t need to be boxed at all and it should just be. Very strong vocals, vulnerable, soulful, honest. Just the way you always loved Kelis. Kudos to her for the amazing album. Get the album here: http://bit.ly/1poPbGA
