Trey Songz Recovers From COVID-19 & Doesn’t Want To Do Verzuz

Shortly after Donald Trump revealed that he had tested positive for COVID-19, urging his supporters not to take the pandemic seriously, Trey Songz swooped in to tell his fans that he too had tested positive.

“Here with a very important message to let you know that I tested positive for COVID-19,” said Trey. “I’ve taken many tests as I’ve been protesting, food drives—of course, I have a very young son at home so I get tested periodically and this time, unfortunately, it came back positive.”

He made sure to remind people to continue keeping others in mind, saying that he would be staying at home and self-quarantining.

“I will be taking it seriously. I will be self-quarantining. I will be in my house until I see a negative sign,” said the artist. “I don’t know how many of y’all know but my grandfather passed earlier this year, and while it wasn’t said that it was COVID, I do believe it was. So, I’ve always taken it serious. And if you come in contact with COVID, please do the same. Please do the same. Don’t be like the president.”

Today, he revealed that he has officially tested negative, which was kind of obvious by the massive party he was seen at this week.

“I ain’t got the COVID no more,” he said during an interview. “Don’t even worry about it, man.”

His name has also been brought up as Timbaland and Swizz Beatz announced the second season of Verzuz. People want to see Trigga Trey participate but, according to the artist, he’s not interested.

“No, I’m not [open to doing Verzuz],” said Trey. “I love Verzuz, don’t get me wrong. I love everything that Verzuz stands for and I love that we have legendary people coming up and showing each other love. What you see after these battles, a lot of younger people are actually put on to these classic artists and you see their streams go up, etc. But for me, I’ve never really been into being in competition with the next man, the next woman, and putting myself in a position where I gotta say, ‘this is better than what you’ve done.’ I’m in competition with myself. Furthermore, I don’t think there’s anybody that really do what I do.”

Everyone’s throwing #TreySongz name around for a #Verzuz — but TRIGGA ain’t really feeling it. Do you agree? Are there certain artists that should never do a Verzuz? 🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫 . . #Ashleeonair @treysongz

Kieran James Honors Memory with “Part of the Grind”

Singer-songwriter Kieran James delivers a devastating new single with “Part of the Grind,” a track to tackle the tangled emotions behind loss and memory. A love letter penned to a close friend who faced severe cognitive decline, the song’s emotional heft feels universal yet heartbreakingly personal.

Set to delicate instrumentation and achingly sung vocals, “Part of the Grind” is both a lament and an honoring, a means of remembering while addressing the unavoidable cost of time and illness. His voice floats, leaving room for silence and the long pauses that so often come with grief. But in that silence, there is warmth as well, a refusal to let memory be totally extinguished.

Resilience is also implied in the song’s title, a reminder that even in heartbreak, life goes on and holding the memory of someone stays with the rhythm of everyday living. it’s an anthem for anyone who has ever looked on witnessing decline, mixed sorrow with love.

In Kieran James’s “Part of the Grind,” we hear music as well as go behind it. He gives us room feel, to mourn, and to honor. In the process, he turns private pain into something achingly universal, a song for everyone who has either loved or lost.
