Tremaine Aldon Neverson (born November 28, 1984), known professionally as Trey Songz, is an American singer and actor. He was discovered by record producer Troy Taylor in 2003, and later signed to his Songbook Entertainment label in a joint venture with Atlantic Records. His debut studio album, I Gotta Make It (2005) entered the Billboard 200 at number 20, while his second album, Trey Day (2007) reached number 11. The latter was supported by the single "Can't Help but Wait", which peaked at number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance. His third album, Ready (2009) reached number three on the Billboard 200, spawned the Billboard Hot 100-top ten single "Say Aah" (featuring Fabolous), and earned a nomination for Best Contemporary R&B Album at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards.
His fourth album, Passion, Pain & Pleasure (2010) saw continued commercial success and reached number two on the chart while receiving support from the single "Bottoms Up" (featuring Nicki Minaj), which peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100. Supported by the Grammy Award-nominated single "Heart Attack", Neverson's fifth album, Chapter V (2015) became his first to debut atop the Billboard 200. His sixth album, Trigga (2014) became his second to do so, and spawned a commercial re-issue following the success of his 2015 single "Slow Motion". He has since released the albums Tremaine (2017) and Back Home (2020). Trey Songz has sold over 25 million records worldwide in singles and albums.[3]
