Trey Songz Full "Some Girl Gave Me Crabs" Interview

He was raw without being too rough. Then I realized I would have to wait a whole week before I could have him again. Good thing he took just as good care of me the second time around.

Ready is about to drop in August right?
Well, we pushed it back to September, because since Drake isn't putting "Successful" on his album, I'm going to go back to it and change it up a bit to have it on mine.

What is this I hear about a Trey Songz and Fabolous tour?
The Fabolous and Trey Songz tour is just me and Fab talking. We're going to see what happens. We actually developed a good working relationship for the past year and a half. From the “In Ya Phone” record to the “Last Time” record that he just did for his album. So we probably going to do something together for my album. I just sent him something, so I think that will be a good look. And we’ve been hanging out too. I came to his party at the Velvet room and he came to a couple of parties of mine. The ladies would like it.

Let's jump right in it. You are a proud supporter of porn?
Yeah. I think porn is cool.

Any recommendations?
Any recommendations on porn? Go to 4228, xxx.videos.com and freeporn.com. I don’t visit them frequently, but that's three different sites. How could you go wrong?

You prefer free over paying?
Not necessarily. Sometimes I pay for it in the room. Because when I was younger I used to sneak and buy DVDs.

What's your favorite type?
I think that porn is a way to broaden your horizons as far as sex is concerned. I remember when I first started watching porn my favorite porn star was Lacey Duvalle, Lindy Foxx, and I like the free will of porn all in itself.

But some things look better than they feel.
Yeah there are some things that happen in porn that some girls can never do in real life (laughs), you know what I mean, unless they are porn stars. I think that’s the cool part about it. It’s like ‘damn, that’s crazy.’

You found that out the hard way, huh.
Nah (laughs).

Do you prefer it when you are alone or when you are with your girl?
Either.



Are you apart of the Mile High Club?
No, I never participated in any mile high activities.

Hmmm. I wasn't expecting that.
Oh, you weren't expecting that?

Do you get some in every city you visit?
No, not every city.

What city has the best girls?
Well I’ve been doing this for four or five years now so for the most part when I come to a city I already know someone there.

You have someone in every city?
Well that doesn’t mean I get some in every city. It means for the most part anywhere I go I know a woman that I have some sort of a friendship with. I wouldn’t necessarily say that I’m fond of groupies for the most part.

What’s your favorite city to visit?
It would be New York and Miami. Every time I go to New York, it’s crazy how people are in the street all night. The city never sleeps. Even though New York ain’t really what it used to be as far as musically. It’s still one of the greatest cities in the world to visit even when I’m working, doing an interview, or a meeting, or a TV show, or this radio show, or the studio, there’s always something to do, especially in the summertime. I love New York in the summer. Miami is beautiful — the weather, the women, the beach — it’s carefree out there. It’s like a TV show or something.

What's the difference between the chick you make your girl, and someone who's just a jump?
My girl gets love. A jump gets sex.

But how do you decide if you're going to make her your main girl or not?
Character traits. Once you kick it with a person long enough you start see what they are around for.

And what are your favorite things to use in the bedroom?
My tongue and my penis (laughs).

Allllright. You don’t use toys?
No, I have before, but I ain't really into it.

No food or nothing?
I mean I ain't really into all that either. I can get into that, but it ain't nothing I’m really into. I save those things for somebody special.

You said that you are not into fetishes, but do you role play?
I will and I have with my girlfriend. I think it has to be [with your girlfriend]. You shouldn’t just do that with anybody.

You kiss girls that are not your girlfriend?
It depends.

Is there anything you leave for just your girl? Or that you would if you had one?
Well if I had a girl she would be the only one getting everything.

Have you cheated before?
Yeah.

Would you cheat again?
Well if I get into a relationship I know the consequences and I know what a relationship calls for. I don’t think I would get into one unless I was ready.

Can you tell when a girl is faking?
No.

Are girls really that good at faking?
I feel like I’m really great at sex.

So girls don’t fake with you.
No I’m saying I can’t tell if they do.

With all this sex, you ever take a trip to the clinic?
Yes.

You ever got anything before?
When I was like 16 or 17, this girl gave me crabs. It was the most uncomfortable shit in the world. I was confused because ain't nobody know I was having sex. So I was like damn what the fuck is going on? I even had to cut all my hair off and I had to eventually tell somebody. And had to go to the doctor.

How long did you have them for then?
Just a couple days.

Did you know the girl that gave it to you?
Yeah I did.

And you told her?
Yeah I told her. It was wild experience. We were young. And that was kind of crazy and it was the worst so when I told her she tried to deny it. And I just basically stopped talking to her.

That's the only thing you've ever gotten?
Yeah.

It taught you to practice safe sex.
Yeah I keep condoms everywhere I go.

You were telling me that your mother gives you condoms.
Yeah that was back when I first started hitting the road she would pack my bag and she would pack these 12-packs Magnums. And she always tells me to be safe. (-Eyeroll-)

And when you run out?
I have before but my dudes always keep condoms, too. (wat)

You once said that you can’t make love to everybody. That there are all these girls that think because you’re an R&B singer that you can make love to them.
It’s just not gonna happen.

Has a girl ever got mad or says she’s disappointed?
Sometimes it happens. But you can’t be looking everybody in they eye and slow grinding with candles on in every situation. That’s why I make it clear on certain songs that that’s not gonna always happen, like you hear on some of my mixtapes. It ain't gonna be love making in every scenario. I’m willing to compromise to give a woman her fantasy. But [has a girl ever gotten mad] because I won't make love to her? Nah.

Craziest thing someone has done after having sex with you.
Probably cry. Women are weird (laughs).

Thanks. What did you do?
I was confused like why are you crying? She had something going on in her life you know. She was like “I can't believe I’m doing this.” I comforted her though. I think the thing that’s important between men in entertainment that do have sex with women that they don’t really know is that they do treat them with respect. I believe in a lot of scenarios — not to speculate and I know what happened like with the Tupac and Mike Tyson case — when you get a woman in a room and you treat her like a piece of trash all she got to do is say you raped her and she can very easily bring you back to earth. So I treat everyone with respect.

Is there ever a girl you've wanted that you couldn't have?
Yeah that happens every once in awhile. Usually when I can’t have what I want, I don’t take that.

You don't fight for her?
Somewhat.



You know the rumor that if a girl drinks pineapple juice her shit tastes sweeter?
Yeah I heard about that. Well you know the rumor that if a dude drinks pineapple juice (laughs)... I'm gonna tell you a funny story. I was eating skittles. One night, we went to the movies, me and my home girl, and I was eating skittles and she (gave me head) that night, so two days later she was talking to her home girl and she was reading that if her man eats skittles his cum tastes better. And she was tripping because I had ate skittles and she was like it tastes different. And I was like that’s some bullshit.

So it’s not true?
I don’t know.

Did you ever find out about pineapple juice?
No I never found that out. But I don’t really go too much for the juices. I’m more of a clitoral guy. When I do it I’m not really all the way down there, because most woman are aroused from the clitoris.

How much does your own sex life influence your music?
A lot.

Do you play your music while you get it in?
Nah, I have before, yeah.

That’s a little cocky.
Is it? Think so? I mean so many other people are having sex to my music, why can’t I? I play music. Not all the time. Like I don’t have to have music to have sex. Because sometimes I like silence so I can hear her.

What’s your favorite song to have sex to? Or top five 5 sexiest songs?
“Greatest Sex” R. Kelly, “Fuck You Tonight” Biggie. And a lot of these songs depend on who it is, like if I’m making love to somebody and it’s somebody special, I’ll play like some Prince “Insatiable.” And actually I had a playlist — a sexual playlist. Where is it? I put it on my iPod.

Okay you look for that. In order of importance love, sex, money, or fame?
It would be love, money, fame, sex.

Morning sex or drunken sex?
I say drunken sex. 'Cause with morning sex, the morning may not be right. Some girls aren’t made for mornings (laughs).

You wake up to a lot of ugly women?
No, I don’t really have sex in the morning unless it’s really somebody special.

They don’t sleep over.
Nah.

You consider yourself an underdog, but BallerStatus just named you the hottest R&B singer in the game.
Yeah.

Who's your competition in music right now? Do you think you have any?
Of course I do. There’s always competition. I feel like I’m a horse with blinders on. I don’t see them. I don’t think they can see me. I think I focus on my lane than anything else. I think that’s why I was named that by BallerStatus. It’s because I go so hard. And a lot of people don’t really understand that. Unless you’re in my world you ain't really understanding it. And what’s going on now is that my world is starting to involve into everybody else’s world — my mixtape records, I'm on my Internet grind. I got four songs on the radio right now. I’ve always been grinding, but over the past year and a half, I’ve gone into overdrive.

I know it’s your intention to get people excited about the album. Are you looking to make more mixtapes?
I’ve been making mixtapes since 2004. I will never stop.

So what motivates you to go harder? Where does the hunger come from?
I’m a grinder. I'm a beast. I need to eat. I’m forever hungry. I don’t see how people get content.

How does your family fit into all of this?
My family knows I’m out here working so they can eat. I got to send my little brother to college. I retired my mother from work early. My grandmother’s getting older. I do this so I can be the breadwinner so I can hold it down if need be. Whenever someone in my family needs something or if a situation in my family goes off course, I can be there for them. So nobody complains about me not being there at home. And I work even when I’m not supposed to be working.

What advice do you give to your brothers about girls?
Well my brothers are just starting to get into that age where they getting into that, and they gaining their own identity.

How old are they?
One is 14. The other one is 16. And I think they're just getting to the point where they're comfortable talking to me. And it’s kind of cool. I just keep it a hundred with them depending on what they’re coming to me with. I tell my younger brother if he’s going to have sex, he’s got to wear a condom. I tell him how to put it on. I tell him what to watch for. I can’t give it all to him, because he got to learn on his own, and I can’t be tough on him. If you come at them too hard, they're not going to want to tell you nothing.



I want to talk to you about the Michael Vick situation. He got suspended and all that, and I know that you had some comments on it. You think that he served his time? And you don’t think its fair that he’s being suspended for five games?
As far as the NFL concerned, I don’t know how their rules work. I know that when he was initially charged and even before he was charged, he had gotten a lot taken from him. So I think if they’re going to reinstate him then they should just reinstate him. And if they say that they got to do that then they got to do that. But I don’t think that it’s necessary. I think he served his debt to society.

Which team do you think he should be picked up by?
I would love for the Redskins to get him. If the Buffalo Bills get him it would be crazy and it would take some of the pressure off [Terrell Owens]. And T.O. wouldn’t be the only threat, but they got a good quarterback up there. But we need him on the Redskins though.

Any thoughts on the child support settlement with Nas and Kelis?
That’s a lot of money. That’s a lot of money for child support. That’s clearly not the money she would need to take care of that child.

But wouldn't Nas be spending about that much if they were still together?
But that would be on them and the family. They’re not a family. I think she got him. It was cheaper to keep her.

Does that make you worried to get married and divorce and all that?
No, I feel like when I find that person, I’ll know. I’m not in a rush to get married anyway. And I think a lot about that. I want family, I want children but that’s why I don’t have kids now. I want to make sure I don’t get put in a situation like that. I saw that happen all too many times.

How many kids do you want to have?
I want to have a lot of kids. I love kids.

What’s a lot though? 10?
Not no 10 (laughs), probably 4, 5, or 6.

Boys or girls?
Just kids. It’s a blessing to myself and the woman I love.

Are you surprised you don’t have any kids?
I take a very precaution. I’m very safe.

So no girls are poking holes in your condoms?
No girl touches my condoms. My condoms are mine.

You're being called the king of remixes.
Yeah.

What beats are you trying to get on?
Well I’m about to get this setup, this Pro-Tools setup so I can record in my room while I’m on promo. I want that “We Run This Town.” I just got on that “Obsessed” last week. I ain't got it mixed yet. A couple more that I heard that’s crazy.

And are you going to put out the remix with Teyana Taylor to “I Need a Girl?”
Yes I am. That’s why I got to get this setup as well because I want to make sure I bring something extra to the record as well. I don’t want it to be just a verse with her. I want to do a little something new. But if it takes me too long, I’ll just put it out there.

Now with Ready, you have these pre-order packages.
Yup.

Why did you guys decide to do that?
Pre-order packages are for my real fans to see whose going to go get it. It’s a lot to offer there. I think with the pre-order packages you see how hard I go for my fans. It was my product manager’s ideas to put some pictures together and put out something genuine my fans can hold on to. I came with the idea of the “Yuuup” t-shirt and the media department came with the idea of the live video chat.

Your fans go hard.
Yea so I want to make sure I go hard for them so they have a piece of something special, not what everybody else gets. I know that they’ll appreciate that.

Sales are looking good so far?
They’re doing well. We’re basically a month a way from the album. At the pace that they’re going now, we should be at a good position.

That's dope. So when’s your sex tape coming out?
Well, I gotta finish editing it (laughs). Nah, I’m not really into all of that.

Have you ever taped yourself?
No, but if I did and it came out, it wouldn’t be leaked. I would put that shit out myself.
