Following a strong showing with Ready, Trey Songz jumped right back into the game with Passion, Pain, and Pleasure. The successful singles from those albums have made him a force in the R&B game. But, outside of R&B, Trey Songz has been building a career in rap as Trigga.

Ever since Sean Combs began changing his stage name, many other musicians have also tried this. Trey Songz can be added to this list, as he has a R&B personality and a rap personality. Singer-turned-actor, Tyrese has also veered away from R&B and raps under the psuedonym, Black Ty.

In an effort to put music out from Trigga, Trey Songz put together a rap mixtape, #lemmeholddatbeat. Obviously, the mixtape is title is themed after Twitter. After doing well with record sales for the past two years, Trey Songz has decided to release this mixtape for free. The mixtape has sixteen tracks featuring some of the hottest beats of the past decade.
