Overview
Trey Day is the second studio album by American R&B recording artist Trey Songz. It was released on October 1, 2007, by Atlantic Records. Recording for the album began in mid-2006, with Songz again reteaming with longtime collaborator Troy Taylor. With the singer aiming for the album to be more mainstream-oriented than his debut album I Gotta Make It (2005), he also consulted a wider ranger of adodtional producers to work with him, including Bryan-Michael Cox, Danja, Stargate and R. Kelly.
The album earned generally lukewarm reviews from music critics who found it enjoyable but felt that it was inferior to his debut album I Gotta Make It (2005). Trey Day debuted at number 11 on the US Billboard 200, with 73,000 copies sold in the first week of release. It also reached number two on Billboards Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. The album was supported by four singles, including "Can't Help but Wait," Songz' first top 20 entry on the US Billboard Hot 100 as well as the R&B top ten hit "Last Time."
