It opens with Songz speaking, "When I met you woman, I couldn't help but notice a face so beautiful. The song is a mid-tempo slow jam piano-based ballad. So I thought it would be a great concept: Beautiful women make beautiful faces when they making love." "Love Faces" revolves around facial expressions that people make when having sexual intercourse. Songz said of the tune's conception, "I'm sure any man can relate when you look at a beautiful woman and you imagine those things, and I'm sure do those things too when they get into that mental frame when looking at someone. "Love Faces" was written by Trey Songz along with Tony Scales, Troy Taylor and Edrick Miles, while Taylor and Miles produced the track. Problems playing this file? See media help.

It was released on Januas the third single from his fourth studio album, Passion, Pain & Pleasure (2010). " Love Faces" is a song by American recording artist Trey Songz. What i am saying is, that trey is a good artist, like hearing some of his tracks, but saying he is the answer to everything that R&B, on a much higher level talent-wise than anyone else is just not true.Tremaine Neverson, Troy Taylor, Edrick Miles, Tony Scales It is not a level playing field, at some point Trey will get de-prioritised if he does not bring in big numbers from all the money that has been pumped into his campaign. So saying that Trey is a better artist, or more talented than someone like Tank, or any other male artist out there is pretty false in many ways. Record companies invest more money on acts like Trey, rather than Tank for example, and they are both on the same label…. Trey is not really up there for me, basing this purely on sales just does not make any sense at all. Tone of voice does not strike me as something we all will eagerly listened to in years to come. Trey’s lack of vocal range, tone and personality appeal may let him down going forward. I do like some Trey tracks on PPP and previous albums. You are amusing for sure…Īlways liked this song, glad its released to the masses, a Troy Taylor production… So its bound to be a quality slow for all those who know if his producing talents. Was laughing my ass off from your comments. Kelly thing behind because its hard to keep up with Kellz. He needs to find his own style and leave the whole R. What he says today or tomorrow doesn’t matter because the public don’t forgive celebs that easily.
He shouldn’t expect to get love from anyone because he started the hate. Kellz calls himself “a flirt” trey says he is “Mr steal your girl” One could easily over look this but this was the same guy that went about talking about Kellz and making a whole diss track directed at Kellz. I mean his songs and his sense of style of today is all R. But its hard not to say he is not copying him.
Some even sample one or two of his songs but still try to have their own style which is all good.
The same way these young RNB cats of today also cite R kelly as one of their influences. Kelly is influenced by Marvin Gaye, Ron Isley, Sam Cooke, Mj, Prince etc. Everyone in the music industry has an influence. Influence and copy are absolutely 2 different things.
