Mini bio
How it started.
Growing up in a military family, Trey began entering talent contests around age 14. Producer Troy Taylor became his mentor, and Trey moved to New Jersey after high school to learn from him. His Atlantic debut, I Gotta Make It, arrived in 2005.
Finding his audience.
Trey Day brought “Can’t Help But Wait” in 2007. Ready followed in 2009 with “Say Aah,” “Neighbors Know My Name” and “I Invented Sex.” It became his first platinum album, pairing R&B slow jams with guests including Drake and Fabolous.
A bigger stage.
“Bottoms Up,” featuring Nicki Minaj, reached No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100. Chapter V in 2012 and Trigga in 2014 each topped the Billboard 200. He later released Tremaine The Album in 2017 and Back Home in 2020.
Inside the studio.
Trey says he once worked as Troy Taylor’s vocal production assistant. For Back Home, he wanted chord changes, bridges and layered harmonies. His 2025 solo singles and 2026 collaborations with Fivio Foreign and Blaq Tuxedo give fans more recent music to explore.
