![]() ![]() Trigga emphatically reaffirmed Trey’s hit-making pedigree: The album spawned a whopping six singles, best among them Nicki Minaj collaboration "Touchin, Lovin". Trey and production team The Featherstones dabbled in the surefire 2014 hit strategy, "interpolate a '90s classic" (in this case, Big and Kells’ "Fuck You Tonight"), but made sure to slyly note, "If we talkin’ bout sex, girl you know I invented that"-a reminder of his indelible stamp on millennial baby-making jams. But Trey’s alpha-male anthems have always had a bit of a chauvinistic edge, and "Touchin, Lovin" succeeded in no small part because it allotted space for a strong female perspective as a counterpoint to the bro-y narcissism of a guy used to having his way. If you squint, Trey’s recent six-song Intermission EP, a stopgate to tide fans over until Trigga: Reloaded this summer, 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. But the fantasy quickly fades: almost every song doubles down on the #meninist platitudes and reductive misogyny more than anything he’s released to date. Intermission feels like a conceptual homage to pick-up artist bible The Game. "Don’t Play" starts seductively enough, with its spacious, Jeremih-esque atmospherics, but quickly devolves into negging on wax. "You got my time, girl, don’t you disrespect it," he huffs, barely concealing his impatience with his companion’s sexual ambivalence. "Good Girls vs Bad Girls" has Trigga reducing half the earth’s population to an Archie Comics trope, then wondering why he can’t seem to find meaning within this sad binary. "Boss", perhaps unwittingly, provides the EP’s only real moment of vulnerability. The track borrows a feeling from Drake circa 2010 (a time when Drizzy needed Trey’s co-sign to get a leg up, strange as that may seem now), not just in mood and cadence, but in the same defensive paranoia, obsessed with the idea that women are attracted by his status and adjusting his expectations accordingly. "I don’t judge her, don’t judge her/ But I could never love her/ ‘Cause I’m just an entertainer/ And soon she gon’ fuck another," he sings, a riff on Drake's guarded "Miss Me" verse and a flash of context for the surrounding callousness. But it still doesn’t make the project’s overwhelming misogyny any easier to swallow, sexy as the sound may be. It’s a move as perplexing as it is disappointing. Meninist flailing is for dudes struggling to overcome their terrible personalities, like Eminem. And Intermission’s spite towards women is especially baffling considering they comprise the vast majority of his fandom.Trey songz intermission 1 and 2 torrent for free#.Trey songz intermission 1 and 2 torrent download zip#.We only allow streams, videos and MP3 files which are intended for free distribution or as a promotional campaign made by the copyright holders. ![]() Users who ignore this rule will be banned from the site. ![]()
