Hundreds of fans paid $100 for non-existent Trey Songz concert

Hundreds of Trey Songz fans have shelled out up to $100 a pop to see the rapper perform at Resorts World Casino in Queens Saturday.

There’s just one problem: there is no show.

Police sources told The Post that con artists promoted the phony concert on social media for weeks, and peddled fake passes to unsuspecting fans of Songz and Caribbean pop artist Julien Believe, who was also advertised to take the stage at the casino near Aqueduct.

“About 800 people responded to the posting, and an estimated 600 tickets were sold,” a police source said Friday, explaining that there was another event — featuring Lisa Lisa and her band Cult Jam — actually happening at that time.

“We’re going to have a detail assigned to the venue tomorrow,” another source added.

Sources said Resorts ultimately tipped off cops about the scam. The fraudsters had been offering VIP seats for $100 and general admission tickets for $50, cash only.

“Anything online that demands cash only you should avoid like the plague,” a police source said.
Anyone who responded to the ad was directed to a house on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, the sources said.

“FRAUD ALERT . . . NEITHER RESORTS WORLD NOR TREY SONGZ HAS AUTHORIZED THIS EVENT,” the casino posted on its Web site. “PLEASE CONTACT THE POLICE IF YOU ARE A VICTIM.”

According to the bogus promotional flier, New Yorkers could buy advance tickets to the show by calling (310) 853-8209, a land-line phone number registered in California.

Calls to the number were not returned.

While Songz’s agent did not return a request for comment on Friday, Believe blasted the scammers earlier this week — saying it was sad that someone would stoop to that level.

“It’s unfortunate what some people use their precious time to do,” he told QNS.com. “It’s just wrong to take advantage of people like this. I hope they find the persons responsible and that situations like this never occur again!”

The city’s Department of Consumer Affairs recently warned concertgoers to be on the lookout for a new wave of fake tickets this summer, which come complete with mock Ticketmaster logos and barcodes.

Trey Songz Confesses To Being a Homosexual via Twitter (Tweet Later Deleted)

LOS ANGELES – R&B star Trey Songz has just admitted to being a homosexual via Twitter. He says he is not bisexual, but homosexual and one day will like to “Marry the man of his life”.

Trey Songz has been extremely popular with the ladies since the beginning of his career back in 2003. Fans are questioning why a man like Trey Songz, who can essentially get any woman if he wanted to, would become gay. Trey Songz first admitted to being gay on Twitter when he tweeted from his official account, but later deleted to tweet. We believe coming out the closet is a very stressful choice for Songz as it is with most people. check out the tweet below:

Although, only being posted a few hours ago, it managed to reach 57k Retweets and almost 53k Favorites before being deleted. To 7.2 Million followers on the site, it’s not much of a secret anymore. Trey Songz has refused to speak to reporters or the media in general after the confession. We know the situation will cause controversy in the music world. We will update you soon on Trey Songz.

Five albums to try this week: Trey Songz, George Ezra and more

From Trey Songz’s salacious R&B to George Ezra’s husky folk-pop, here are five new albums to consider

Why you should listen: Lone’s Matt Cutler has produced a collection of forward-thinking, textured and often slow-burning dance music tracks on this sixth album.

It might not be for you if… You were never onboard with the ambient electronica thing that the likes of Gold Panda, Mmoths and Apparat have done for the past few years.

What we said: “Reality Testing was supposed to be a slab of upfront dance music, but instead it morphed into something that's more astral than acid,” wrote Lanre Bakare, in the Guardian G2 Film & Music section.

Score: 4/5

The The – Soul Mining: 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition (Sony Music CMG)

Why you should listen: In his early twenties, a fresh-faced and dryly witty Matt Johnson put together this eclectic (and slightly MDMA-addled) album of what can most simply be described as post-punk but in fact straddles far more musical references than that.

It might not be for you if… For whatever reason, you’re not up for several of Jools Holland’s boogie-woogie piano solos sprinkled across this record.

What we said: “Over the course of Soul Mining's seven tracks, you variously hear folk fiddles and accordion, the popping basslines of contemporary funk, punishing industrial beats, electronics derived from New York's then current club music – both the post-disco boogie of the Peech Boys and D-Train and the electro of Newcleus and the Jonzun Crew – and African-inspired polyrhythms,” wrote Alexis Petridis, in the Guardian.

Score: 5/5

Trey Songz – Trigga (Atlantic)

Why you should listen: Trey Songz delivers an album of hook-up R&B, referencing just about every sexual innuendo and adventure you can (or would rather not) imagine.

It might not be for you if… You’re firmly Team Drake when it comes to the place where hip-hop meets R&B.

What we said: “It might all feel a little mechanical, but Trigga does hang together, and has a seductive power that (one presumes) is befitting of the man himself,”wrote Paul Macinnes, in the Guardian.

Score: 3/5

George Ezra – Wanted on Voyage (Columbia)

Why you should listen: George Ezra smothers his smooth yet husky baritone all over this album of poppy folk.

It might not be for you if… You can’t keep up with acts like this any longer. Don’t we already have Paolo Nutini?

What we said: “He packs a Harry Potter scar and a set of songs that navigates the cusp where breezy folk-pop – the stuff of lucrative ad syncs – tips over into someone getting murdered scuba diving off the north coast of Belgium,” wrote Kitty Empire, in the Observer New Review.

Score: 3/5

Cerebral Ballzy – Jaded and Faded (Cult)

Why you should listen: If anyone could sculpt Cerebral Ballzy’s frenzied hardcore into something more brooding and mature, it would be TV on the Radio’s Dave Sitek. Here, his production keeps the band’s usual chaos intact while bringing in a more diverse sonic palette.

It might not be for you if… You either want the “old” Cerebral Ballzy back, or just aren’t that big into hardcore and shambolic cymbal-crashing anyway.

What we said: “Those wanting exercises in extreme velocity will still get them on Speed Wobbles and Junk Food, but this time speed is a tool rather than a blunt instrument,” wrote Michael Hann, in the Guardian.

Score: 3/5

What about you, then? Hop into the comments section and let us know which albums you’re excited to get stuck into this week.

In 2000, he reluctantly competed in a talent show and was spotted by producer Troy Taylor.

10 Pickup Lines From Trey Songz’s ‘Trigga Reloaded’ Album That Will Help You Seal the Deal

Trey Songz has built quite the reputation for himself since bursting on the R&B scene as a fresh-faced singer in 2005. Releasing his debut album, I Gotta Make It, that same year, the Virginia native quickly established himself as one of the more promising new R&B artists in the game. Ten years later, the man born Tremaine Neverson is a full-fledged star with more hit songs than people have fingers. While he is musically one of the most acclaimed artists of today, he’s also very popular with the ladies, hence his moniker “Mr. Steal Your Girl,” which has proven to break up more than a few happy homes.

Despite those unfortunate instances, Trey is continuing to gift us with quality tales of love and lust with his latest album, Trigga Reloaded. A revamped version of his 2014 release, the Reloaded version features four newly-recorded songs, all of which only enhance the listening experience of the original. Listening to the album, aside from the songs being superb, we noticed a lot of game being spat in between the lines. And not just your average at-the-bar-tryna-pick-up-a-chick game, but premium spittage.

Taking note of that, we decided to try to lend a helping hand to the fellas by giving them a cheat sheet full of choice lyrics from Trigga Reloaded. These lines are sure to get anyone in good with that girl next door, the man-eater at the club or any other kind of woman you desire.

1. “I got 525,600 women / They come around and we take ’em all down, kick ’em out when we finished / They cool, but they not like you, baby girl, it’s just different / Girl, you got me on one and I don’t know what I’m gon’ do / ‘Cause now you got me loving you”
“Loving You” Featuring Ty Dolla $ign

Men may catch flack from the prudes from keeping a stable of prospective cuties for the random late-night booty call, but this line is sure to get you around that roadblock. Instead of running away from your philandering ways, sweetly explain that despite your checkered past, you’re solely interested in earning her love and affection. Honesty is always the key to fruitful relationships.

2. “I’d like to have dessert for starters / Tell me, baby, can you take my order? / Hey, pretty lady, give me some of that cake / I’d like to place an order, ooh, I just want a taste”
“Cake”

A popular setting for a first date is somewhere you can eat and get to know each other. After easing her in for small talk, go in for the kill and toss these random lines. If she gives you that sexy smirk, you’re in there. And if not, you can always chalk it up as a corny joke and take the L, but this one should work effectively with the right delivery.

3. “Serve it up, serve it up, girl your loving is the bestest / Working up an appetite and baby, you’re my breakfast / Oh, you’re so delicious / I’ll do your dirty dishes”
“Serve It Up”
These lines are for the fellas that are fond of a little breakfast in bed with their significant other. After the meal is finished, whisper this in her ear and sparks are sure to fly. Just be ready to break out the Palmolive after the climax though.

4. “Bring your body here right now, I’ma knock it right down / Say you got a n—-, go figure, take another sip of this liquor / Talk a little s— ’cause my d— much bigger / Baby, let me tell you a lil something bout Trigga”
“Dead Wrong”
Regardless of how you feel about the matter, the fact is that some women will commit adultery and even seek satisfaction outside of their relationship. Well, if you’re game and confident enough, talking down her man and bragging about your prowess in the sheets may be enough to convince that already taken women to go home with you. Just be sure to tread lightly because if her man finds out, it could be a recipe for disaster, which is never a good thing.

5. “Shorty let your hair down and take a sip / Go and put this joint between your lips / Baby, (ooooh), why don’t you make yourself comfortable / Why don’t I go and put this tongue on you”
“Slow Motion”
When you finally get the girl of your dreams in your home, the one thing you want her to be is comfortable above anything else. If she takes part in libations, offer her a drink and a little bit of greenery, to set the mood. Gaining a woman’s trust and getting her to let her guard down is mission impossible for some men, but if her inhibitions are released for the night, she may be more open to your sweet nothings and banter.

6. “One o’clock, 2 o’clock, 3 o’clock, 4 / 5′ o’clock, 6 o’clock, you can hit cha boy / If you ain’t the type of bitch talking ’bout relationships / Hit me up on that late-night s—“
“Late Night”

If you’re only interested in a late-night creep, just keep it real and tell her upfront. Women are nearly as sexually whimsical as men these days, so there’s a chance that after telling a hottie this, she might just oblige. Sometimes being shameless can work in your favor and lead you to receiving the goods without the hassle.
7. “Hit it seven days ’cause ya know ya man’s weak / Make ya body talk, don’t I make that thang speak / Such a freak, I only been here for two weeks / Came wit’ her girls and they tryna leave wit me”
“Foreign” Remix Featuring Justin Bieber

There’s no sex like vacation sex. Especially if it’s with an extremely attractive chick you’ll most likely never see again. You may only have a few days to come up on a rendezvous, but if you take the approach Trigga delivers here and spit this brand of pimpage, you may get extra lucky and end up with a menage for your troubles.
8. “I only want what’s best for you / It’s not what’s good for me / It’s not about what I want / But it’s all about what you need”
“What’s Best for You”

The customer is always right, especially if that buyer happens to be the woman you’re attempting to sell your worth to. Make sure she feels that everything is about her and that your sole purpose on this earth is to please her. That’s a good start to breaking down her rough exterior on the way to melting her heart.

9. “I feel you / But it won’t kill you to let me get near you / Your lipsticks meet my kisses / So baby, stop tripping”
“Change Your Mind”
Women can play hard to get at time and when all is fails, sometimes you just have to throw caution to the wind and tell her to stop playing games and let you love her. She may curve, but she may also agree and finally give in to your advances. This is similar to the last second jumper and all but a shot in the dark, but a bad shot is better than letting the clock expire without shooting any day.

10. “Ain’t by chance that we’re here / Only got one life to live so let me change your mind / You say that I’m bad for ya, that’s fine / Sometimes bad is a good time / Don’t you be shy, let me change your mind / You never had a night only / Well, you don’t need to be lonely / Come get to know me”
“Change Your Mind”
After a life-long journey of multiple lovers, there comes a time when a man is ready to settle down. For one night, that is. And while the good girls may be leery of your advances, persistence and dedication will get you further than any cheap catcall. And who knows, you may go in looking for a quick thrill, but end up with something much more and actually find love.



What Trey Songz said about traffic in Nigeria

What Trey Songz said about traffic in Nigeria

Christmas came early for Nigeria as Tremaine Neverson, popularly known as Trey Songz, arrived in the country to headline a concert on Friday at Eko Convention Centre, Victoria Island in Lagos.

Songz, who was in town for the 11th edition of the Rhythm Unplugged Concert,said he was appalled by the traffic he experienced.

The Na Na hit maker arrived on Thursday and during a press conference at the Eko Hotel, Trey said he was amazed by the traffic in Lagos.

It took him a little over 2 hours to get to his hotel from the airport and Trey couldn’t believe it.

During the press conference he also expressed his intention to thrill Nigerian fans and music lovers with his best performance yet.

“For me it has never been just one song and leave, it’s going to be a number of songs and we’ll take it from there as the feeling goes,” the singer said.

The event was one of the most anticipated in Nigeria and Songz reportedly gave quite a performance.

He took to stage to perform a number of his hit songs and, the American star stunned the females further by pulling off his shirt to give everyone an up and close look at his ripped body.

Basketmouth and Bovi hosted the event and there were several performances from Nigerian music stars including M.I Abaga, Wizkid and Runtown .

Comedy acts also wowed the crowds with top names Bovi, Buchi, and Okey Bakassi taking the stage.

According to Pulse Nigeria, Trey Songz confirmed his collaboration with Nigerian pop star Davido and also expressed his desire to meet Wizkid.

“I’m looking to make records with artistes from Nigeria. I have a record with Davido, and I’m looking forward to meeting Wizkid. As the world expands via improved communication and acceptance of pop sounds, the lines get blurred and we will have one unified sound.” Trey said.

Songz is an American singer, songwriter, rapper, record producer and actor.

His debut album, I Gotta Make It, was released in 2005 through Atlantic Records.

His follow up album, Trey Day, spawned his first top 20 single, Can’t Help but Wait.
