Trey Songz still knows how to create buzz—and that’s exactly what he’s done with his latest release, "Can't Stay Mad."

This new track is smooth and soulful, and it’s a longer listen too—running just over five minutes. It’s a sound that feels familiar for Trey Songz, putting him right in his element.

The song begins with an orchestral intro, then shifts into a deeper, bass-driven groove. As expected, Trey delivers his signature vocals with ease. Lyrically, he’s reflecting on a relationship with someone who keeps doing things that upset him. But just like the title says, he “Can’t Stay Mad.”

Whether or not this leads to a full album remains to be seen. But if "Can't Stay Mad" is any indication, fans would likely welcome more songs in this style. With summer approaching, a new wave of R&B could arrive at just the right time.

Also worth noting—Songz released another track in April called “Gimme a Chance,” so there may be more music on the horizon.
