Redirect from Trigga

You shouldn't be directed to here from "Trigga" that's a completely different British MC, nothing to do with Trey Songz. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.146.180.91 (talk) 15:06, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion

This is a fan page or an advertising related to a non-notable musician. There are tons of these deleted every day in Wikipedia. See WP:MUSIC for whether this article deserves to have a place here; I think it doesn't. Unless someone explains to me why it should be kept, I'm going to delete this article. --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 15:07, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I think you should take another look at WP:MUSIC. Kappa 17:17, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I have. While it does mention chart hits, I still don't see much notability: less-than-one-year trajectory, one album, with one song hitting #3 in one specialized chart. I also see that my speedy delete request has been turned into a request for deletion based on Google hits (though WP:MUSIC doesn't mention web popularity). That's probably better for discussion. --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 17:36, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Trey Songz is an Atlantic Records recording artist, who has hosted BET television shows, been featured in major music media (MTV, MTV.com, Vibe magazine, etc.), and released a charting album and a charting single. That places him higher in notablility than a lot of other artists here. --FuriousFreddy 19:13, 19 December 2005

Beef with R. Kelly?

Thatss fucking stupid >> Hit R&B singer Trey Songz continues to down-play multiple reports that are trying to ignite a music-beef with fellow singer and hitmaker R Kelly, despite Trey Songz having harsh words for R Kelly and even releasing the "Death Of Kells" song recently. According to Trey Songz, he is trying to look beyond R Kelly and is even setting up his follow up to his last album, 2009's "Ready." There will be new hit singles coming.

okay so i have never heard of a beef between r-kelly and trey songz.. however trey songz is a much younger and more talented version of r-kelly. Trey songz does not only talk about explicit material in most of his music like r-kelly does. --T-baby404 (talk) 04:05, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please change where you have that Tremaine was born in Petersburg Virginia to Richmond Virginia. My source is the first episode of Trey Songz: My Moment, at 3 minutes and 40 seconds. He says "I was born in Richmond Virginia. but was raised in Petersburg Virgina." Here is a link to the video http://thatgrapejuice.net/2010/06/video-trey-songz-moment-episode-1/ Karina8205 (talk) 02:31, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: An interview is not as good a reference as the current bio. If you can find a better biography that goes to that detail, then we could change it. Thanks, Celestra (talk) 05:52, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Trey Songz

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Trey Songz's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Caulfield":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 23:51, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There is an error in the bio (early life section) Looks like an overzealous fan put in there that he has been married to a Kanaan Williams since 2008. Trey Songz is not married nor engaged. This needs to be corrected. Angelaeaster (talk) 22:15, 10 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please change "Spouse(s) Sarah Cobb" in Trey Songz wiki, he is not married at all, which means he isn't married to Sarah Cobb...this is false information. Collinsmariah327 (talk) 06:14, 11 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
