Dear Flex, This is how you conduct an interview: 1. Ask interviewee question 2. Shut the fuck up (very important) 3. Listen, while interviewee responds 4. Repeat

[@hotlikefiya85]

Lmfao!!!!

[@alexhare9740]

Trey talks like he's the one that gave August exposure. Lloyd was with August a lot earlier. Sucka is still one of the best Alsina songs.

[@keepinupwithkash9737]

along with trae tha truth & Curren$y

[@emmagotswag67]

Did he say that tho?? No.

[@spongebob03]

Where’s August today? He thought he would gain clout by exposing one of Hollywood’s biggest couples! They’ve moved on. Will had people talking because of the Fresh Prince reunion. Jada went on doing her armchair psychologist for Red Table talk. And, August... 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@Tia-nc9xg]

@@spongebob03 August is still doing his thing. Just put out 3 songs, Lied to You, Myself, 2a.m. He was in Surreal Life and touring with R&B Singers and Comedy group. (Can't remember the exact name) So, August is moving forward and doing his thing.😀

[@VaiRostampour]

I remember going to a ne-yo concert back in 2008 in Manchester, and Trey was the support act. I'd never heard of trey before the concert. When Trey performed he stole the show, his performance was better than ne-yo's ... From then I've been a big fan of trey. He deserves more success.

[@spongebob03]

Do you still feel this way? I’m asking out of curiosity. His personal life has overshadowed his music, in recent years.

[@ilovechrisbrown477]

Now this is a " Real nigga " he wasn't mad or anything , I love trey he seems like a cool dude

[@mindcontro]

this guy has been putting in work for many years. so talented. hes starting to reach that legendary status

[@poeticthoughts06]

I find it amazing that Trey remembers all of these details.

[@jeralinbanyon2672]

That smile tho! 😍😍 Makes me melt every time.

[@SyndicateEntourageTV]

great to hear him n Aug fixed things... Trey a real dude from the stuff I'm hearing here.

[@danniwills8739]

[@lanigirq]

i was laughin so haaarrrddd "...what songs was an that album?!? you had to make it? i know you had to make it trey but what songs was on that album???" hahaha xDDD

[@VivaLaShay89]

Seen a lot of Trey interviews... And this is probably one of the best. Good job Flex 🙌

[@tonydavisthedj2day]

Cmon Trey... You been playin that hat for 3 days straight my g! LOL

[@eye845]

Tony Davis no

[@jazminebackforgood]

i love this interview so much because it was the first time that trey was able to have an interview where he got to tell details of his career that we didn't know and flex actually listened and didn't cut him off best interview i have seen from both of them.

[@DiamondDivaMusic]

13:00 thank me later

[@cooallen1570]

🙏🏽

[@irocky1688]

Trey Songz is so down to earth and real. Just like regular people, that's what's it about. He could pass brother with Fabilous (low so). Hey Trey, listen to Chris Martin Jamaica Reggae Singer. Every time I see him or hear I see and hear to an extent. Very down to earth as well.

[@danniwills8739]

🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

[@AdrenalineFixTV]

This dude is genuine, great interview.

[@kenyattabailey1046]

I saw both of their interviews and he says him and august cool buuuuttttt augustsay he don't mess with him. I'M SO CONFUSED

[@keepinupwithkash9737]

kenyatta bailey basically trey fucked up from the jump with that attitude aug said befo once u show him the real you the first time he want fwy like that again so .....

[@LuvfaMoneyGreenwade1]

I dnt gv a fk hw lng trey been out august alsina is dat boi do real he sings both sides of r&b real recognize real

[@rhysubold5476]

The interviewer needs to stop interrupting Trey

[@iCthtflykid]

Love this dude! Too real and down to earth.

[@jaystar4life]

This was a fun interview. I laughed and smiled during most of it lol.

[@whoyathought400]

Just thought about it, never really heard Trey's story from him

[@itzTony93]

quietly trigga was feelin some way bout that august alsina shit lol look at his face 16:19 - 16:34 he was still feelin some sort of way, thats why he EMPHASIZED that "Not thinking before you talk" shit lol

[@rickyfactz]

The Honda Accord talk is me right now.. Word up aha

[@chuchupowpow3364]

Great interview!! FIrst time i heard about Trey's come up. Thanks Flex

[@missme1990]

Nice to see/hear Trey opening up more. There's money to be made & room for all of these r&b cats(as long as the talent is there). Glad him & August's disagreement is a thing of the past. Friends/brothers have misunderstandings all the time then move on. The interviewer should've been cut out of this interview. Good Trey was talking over him to finish his answers geez. Trey is definitely coming across mature & on his grown man & I dig that. He's had to grind to get to where he is today & has made s name for himself #Respect

[@moniquerichardson4817]

He sure does remember a lot...lol

[@hotlikefiya85]

Lmao! that's one thing everyone says about him! His memory is INSANE!

[@duckyzzz]

I don't get how you can forget what made you the person you are today. Career wise at least.

Trey Songz a really cool dude

[@gabriellemccollins9551]

"Gotta make it"! The first song I heard from Trey Songz, braids and all, and I said. "who's that"? He was so young but had an old school vibe! Almost spelled his name wrong. I know another Tre, who is dear to my heart.

[@abigailbailey4640]

THIS is why I LOVE Trey❤

[@jaymeeification]

I like this in depth interview, Trey's relaxed ,personable, comfortable.

[@ChiknThighTatorPie]

I gained a whole lot of respect for Trey from this interview

[@md3dasnipa386]

Good story .. very inspiring !! TREY Iz an ohk Brother ...

[@iRIANHILTON]

Omg his accent is so strong. I thought he kept saying Campbell Weight not Can't Help But Wait.

[@Lboogiefan08]

757! we love you here Trey

[@lasspeng1]

He wasnt even at 757 dumbas... Thats like a hour and a half where he was from

[@EaglesGang215]

R&B Trey Songz . And Chris brown Can Battle for Dat # 1 Spot both Greats

[@BankaiTousen]

both from va im pretty sure you know that since you got AI in your avatar lol but in all honesty im from 757 and i will say as far as vocals trey songz has him beat BUT chris is the better performer because of his dancing

[@taynotezdabest]

Jamal Body Grafiti Chris is a way better overall singer than Trey. Falsetto wise Trey has him. But Trey can't hit the notes that chris can. And trey cant dance and since for 40mins a show like Chris can. Chris has a bigger fanbase. Don't get me wrong im a huge fan of trey. But Chris is a better artist.

[@2regors1]

Chris Brown better. He known internationally. Possibly I think will be one of the greatest ever. August is good but rather girls like his shit. Now. I don't see him go in internationally yet. Trey songs is more national Chris Brown wins hands down

[@nyeeezy]

Both of them are pretty average in the singing department.. Its all about their looks..

[@4hunniddegrees737]

chris lip sings alot now hes been smoking alot and his voice is gone. but still a good artist they're both average
