Trey Songz' New Single Is All "About You"

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - May 19, 2015) - Songbook Entertainment/Atlantic international recording superstar Trey Songz has announced details of his new single. "About You" -- which marks the latest single from Trey's upcoming album, "TRIGGA RELOADED" -- is available at all DSPs today; "TRIGGA RELOADED" drops everywhere on June 23^rd.

Songz is heralding "About You" with a unique fan experience on his official website (http://www.treysongz.com/aboutyou), where users' own selfies are combined to re-create the single's original artwork by selecting photos from Instagram.

"About You" arrives hot on the heels of "Slow Motion," the sultry first single from "TRIGGA RELOADED." The track is a multi-format favorite, with major play at Urban Mainstream, Rhythm, and Mixshow. In addition, the "Slow Motion" official companion video -- directed by Dre Films -- is a YouTube phenomenon, with total views now in excess of 32 million at www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXTBbM21plg.

What's more, Trey surprised fans this spring with the release of "INTERMISSION," an exclusive mixtape featuring five all-new tracks, and his "TRIGGA RELOADED: THE INTERMISSION" Documentary. "INTERMISSION" earned widespread acclaim, with Pitchfork noting the EP "does what Trey does best: provide a no-skips-required sex playlist, or at least an escapist fantasy for zoning out at your desk. The satiny synths, leisurely finger-snap percussion, and evocative bass rumbles, all providing a cushion for Trey's velvety tenor, are the aural equivalent of scattered rose petals and lit candles." His "INTERMISSION I & II" mixtape had its digital premiere yesterday, complemented by six all-new tracks. 

"A lot has happened in a year," Trey says, "and after most recently completing two mega tours from the US to Europe, I felt re-energized by the love and wanted to share this glimpse of the journey while giving my fans some new music. The love I've received is beyond belief, I've attempted to reciprocate it by sharing this vulnerable yet genuine piece."

Trey -- who, as noted, only recently wrapped sold out tours of the US and Europe alongside such like-minded artists as Nickl Minaj, Chris Brown, and Tyga -- has a number of high profile live dates slated throughout the summer. Highlights include an historic headline concert celebrating Namibia's 25^th Independence Day, billed for May 30^th at Windhoek's Independence Stadium, followed by a string of major festival appearances including Hot 97's Summer Jam 2015 at East Rutherford, NJ's MetLife Stadium (June 7^th), Oakland, CA's KMEL Summer Jam 2015 (June 13^th), Detroit, MI's WJLB Big Show @ The Joe (June 19^th), and Chicago, IL's 107.5 WGCI Presents Summer Jam 2015 (June 20^th). As if all that weren't enough, Trey will make his sixth consecutive annual appearance at the 2015 ESSENCE Festival™ Presented by Coca-Cola®, kicking off this year's festivities by co-headlining the ESSENCE "Now Playing" Concert Sponsored By Verizon alongside the one and only Kevin Hart, set for July 2^nd at New Orleans' Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
