Trey Songz Calls Chris Brown Duet A 'Fun Record'

'We started playing around with a crazy concept — just having fun for real,' Songz says of their time in the studio.

Trey Songz chuckled when we asked about all of his recent collaborations: Mary J. Blige, Amerie, new labelmate Toni Braxton and one of his fellas, Chris Brown. Songz told us he and his fellow Virginia native linked up on the West Coast.

"The record me and Chris got is a fun record, produced by Polow Da Don," Songz said of the track, whose title hasn't been released. "[Chris] told me to stop by the studio one night. We was in L.A., I was about to lay it down. He told me to come through. I hadn't seen him in a while. He put this beat on, we started playing around with a crazy concept — just having fun for real. I wasn't sure if he was gonna keep the record, because it was done just out of fun. When I tell you I came by last minute and we cut it real quick — very quick. He's keeping it. It's gonna be a great look."

On his own, Songz is having a banner year. His latest album, Ready, is on track to be his highest-selling and is regarded by many as his best body of work. He's doubling up with new singles "Say Aah" and the bold "I Invented Sex."

"It's a groove record. It's got that knock at the same time," he said about the latter single. "It's sexy at the same time. Conceptually, it's mind-blowing to tell a woman, 'You gonna think we invented sex when we're done.' That's where I am. Even with records like 'Say Aah,' conceptually I wanna think outside the box. You think about a record like 'LOL :-),' it's something real simple, but when you look at the title or listen to the record, you're like, 'Wow.' That's something great from a songwriter's perspective. I'm just trying to make hits and classic records that people can vibe to and live their life."
