Is brooding a step on the path to enlightenment or just shuffling your feet? Of course, who are we to tell the man what his path towards love should look like? While we may not understand the hows, whys or whatevers of this journey towards love, at least it seems like an exciting and very passionate ride. However, as far as the concept of the album goes, there are some things lost in translation. Steal Yo Girl gets down right savage, asking “Is it really picture perfect / Does that nigga serve a purpose / Is it really even working?”Īs a whole, Tremaine The Album is a fun and an endearing project, committing to the sound and style we’ve come to know and expect from the artist. The same could be said on the ballad “Picture Perfect,” where Mr. “Games We Play,” a duet between Trey and his artist MIKExANGEL, is a return to form for the singer that feels more genuine, as he employs a slight Migos flow to admit that they’re both losing when they play games with each other. “Break From Love,” a stark ballad composed of stark piano is an appropriate closer, acknowledging his repetitive transgressions but wanting to make it work. “What Are We Here For,” however does tread a little different territory lyrically if sonically it’s painting by numbers as far as the EDM-style production.

It feels like a million and one pop songs on the radio now. “Priceless,” which sounds like an Usher song right down to the ad libs, isn’t bad, but it sounds a bit rote the lyrics feel stale, as if we’ve heard this same song before, with the wording just in a different order. “1X1”’s house-lite groove is slightly unexpected from Trey, as he rides a sample of Crystal Waters’s classic ‘90s house groove “Gypsy Woman,” delivers a happy-go-lucky ode to a mind-blowing sexual exploit he hopes will be more than a one-night stand. This is followed up by the booty-bouncer “Animal” where Trey uses some pretty explicit metaphors to describe his sexual process, over a groove of congas and other jungle sounds. Bouncy synths punctuate a groove composed of bass guitar, stuttering drums and a sped up vocal sample. “She Lovin It” is a roaring rock ballad about a lover playing coy, asking the hard-hitting questions like, “She said that she didn’t want to be loved / I said why the hell are you here.” While the opening line sounds somewhat rapey, the rest of the song is a bit more reassuring with its tit for tat as a game between lovers and not some questionable transgression on Trey’s part. Trey has always balanced his bedroom jams with certified club bangers, and this album is no different. Another entry on your next sexy time playlist is album opener “Come Over.” Here, Trey is calling an old flame over to the house to reignite the magic between them, even though they’ve been separated for a good minute, most likely due to Trey and his philandering. “The Sheets…Still” is a little on the nose, with the opening lyric, “This ain’t a model or bottles in the club R&B song.” However, that doesn’t disturb the intoxicating groove cooked up by producers $K and Xeryus G., who make a grown and sexy slow jam of subtle piano, drums and guitar that rides a bass line tailor-made for bumping and grinding. However, Trey shows some vulnerability, as he’s a bit scared, “Having sex with my #1 Fan / So why am I so nervous?” Wait? What? Though somewhat saccharine sweet, the song is a nice twist on expectations.Ī Trey album wouldn’t be complete with a good bit of babymaking music. A song about sexing his biggest fan, we’re set up to think it’s going to be yet another groupie tale. “#1Fan,” is a nice departure from our expectations of the artist. This is followed up with further self-evaluation and naval gazing in the ballad “Playboy.” He knows his girl is the only one for him, but he’s trying to figure out if he is quite ready to be a one-woman man.

The lead single “Nobody Else But You” lays out the situation our hero faces, as he’s stuck between doing what’s right and doing what’s right for right now.
