Critic Reviews
Show All-
Soul Tracks
As a project, Ready is ultimately as close to a memorable one-night stand as Songz has ever gotten. But, everyone knows sex and foreplay isn't good without at least a little romance. Shame Ready didn't get the memo.
-
Tiny Mix Tapes
While Ready is far from a perfect album, it seems Trey is learning how to inspirit his original works with the charm and inventiveness found in his freestyles and covers.
-
Day & a Dream
In its unevenness, there are flashes that Songz is more than capable of being the best young R&B singer out there.
-
Hip Hop DX
As a whole, Ready is a solid effort from Trey Songz.
-
All Music
Trey Songz might, or he might not, it's hard to tell, but either way, this is as entertaining and frivolous as a one-night stand should be. If those played-out R. Kelly albums aren't doing the trick anymore, Ready is just what it says it is.

PopMatters
Trey Songz is the most frustrating R&B star to emerge this decade.
-
Overrating the Underrated
It’s an intelligent album, it’s a well-produced album, and it’s fantastically performed by Trey.
-
The Koalition
Ready is very cohesive and displays how focused Trey was in crafting his third opus.
-
AYGEMANG
This R&B classic gives R. Kelly’s epic TP2.COM a run for its money. Just press play and let the music play. There is no need to skip any tracks.
-
ihiphop
With Ready, Trey Songz continues to establish himself on the R&B food chain, with him clearly being towards the top of it.
-
Soul Culture
With his new look, improved sound and a sense of increased confidence, Trey Songz is on his way to earning the title.
-
The Spectator
This is one of the best R&B albums of 2009. I can listen to it from track one through seventeen nonstop.
-
The Core
Ready is a solid effort from the R&B crooner. The only thing that I would’ve liked to hear on this album is a song, or two, that actually gives us a sense of who Trey Songz actually is as a person.
-
Baller Alert
With this release there’s no doubt in my mind that he won’t be successful.
-
The Boston Globe
Songz has made strides with each album; it’s too bad there aren’t more songs like “Be Where You Are,’’ a near-perfect slice of pop, or the beautifully sung “Love Lost.’’ Tracks like that show that he is indeed ready for the next step.

J. Says Online
Overall, “Ready” is a solid record that will satisfy your need for decent R&B.
-
G Style Magazine
To be perfectly honest, this album really impressed me and Trey Songz is now one of my favorite artists.

Flat Hat News
Although he advertises a faulty claim and features short, transition tracks, which falter immensely, he is still in the process of creating a high-quality, classic R&B album.
