Hailed by the late, great Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun as "among the most promising R&B artists we have had on Atlantic since we started the company 60 years ago," "READY" officially establishes Trey Songz among the pantheon of R&B greats.

The album – which follows 2007's breakthrough sophomore set, "TREY DAY" – sees the Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter teaming with an array of accomplished collaborators, including Eric Hudson, Bryan-Michael Cox, Johnta Austin, Carlos "Los DaMystro" McKinney, and Trey's longtime producer, Songbook Entertainment founder Troy Taylor. From the player's anthem, "Neighbors Know My Name," to the Mary J. Blige-inspired "One Love," Trey draws on a range of styles to craft an extraordinary album guaranteed to thrill his already fervent fanbase while happily surprising all newcomers.

Pre-orders for "READY" are available now at http://treysongz.com/preorder. A variety of extras are on offer, including an exclusive newsletter featuring Trey webisodes, a poster featuring the "READY" cover art, a special "Yuuup!" t-shirt, and a digital download of the entire album 24 hours before street date.
