Trey Songz is gonna rock MTV’s Unplugged on (Tonite)Monday night, but thanks to Yardie we got the sneak peak.

“At this point in my career, with all the opportunity arising, this is definitely a major highlight within those opportunities,” he says. “I saw a write up on MTV. and they described my performance as a star-making set. That’s crazy to read, and I think “Unplugged” has been that for so many people. It’s a chance to highlight an artist, a chance for them to be vulnerable, a chance for them to contort their music and give it to people a different way. To show that I’m truly an artist and that I love to do what I do, making music. To do it on that platform, the same one as so many artist before me is just really
amazing.”

The intimate “Unplugged” setting was quite different than what he had been accustomed to during Jay’s trek. “You can reach out and touch the people, you can actually hear what they’re saying back to you,” he says, describing the experience. “You can see the expressions on their face when you do certain things. That’s definitely a pleasure to see and to see them singing your songs, even from the time I brought the girl on stage and she was shaking like a leaf.”

“A funny thing, I actually forgot a part of the song because I was making sure she was OK,” he says, laughing about the moment. “I said, Are you OK, baby? Those are moments that I’ll never forget.”
