I’m diggin’ this joint right here from V.A’s finest Trey Songz. This sounds similar to the style that R&B artists like Toronto’s The Weeknd has been moving with, but Trey Songz has always shown he can adapt & flip any style for the most part. Supposedly this song will appear on his upcoming “Anticipation II” mixtape dropping November 1st.  The first “Anticipation” project he dropped in 2009 was so dope that I was surprised they let that go for free as a mixtape…
