Fresh Fresco Trey with 7/11 Single: Memphis rapper Fresco Trey has released a new single and video called “7/11,” an infectious fall anthem, via Warner.

It’s been a good year for Trey, after he released the Heartbreak Diaries 2 EP in May, the followup (obviously) to the Heartbreak Diaries debut EP.

According to the press release, “Over blues-inflected guitar lines, crisp drums, and a booming bassline, Fresco Trey makes it clear on ‘7/11’ that he won’t let anything stand in the way of his goals. ‘I’m sorry mama I ain’t pulling over, they gonna have to catch me,’ he spits, before eventually coming to a powerful realization. ‘Had to cut some people out my life so I could elevate.’ It underlines the newcomer’s determination to level up—losing simply isn’t an option.”

So yeah, the song has nothing to do with the chain of stores. The video, meanwhile, sees Trey and friends on the streets, popping wheelies on motorcycles and dancing.

“Quickly emerging as one of rap’s great melody-makers with an uncanny talent for marrying otherworldly pop with hard-hitting production and inward-looking lyrics, Trey is one of the most exciting new artists in hip-hop,” reads the release. “To date, the rising hitmaker has garnered acclaim from Billboard, XXL, Lyrical Lemonade, HotNewHipHop, HipHopDX, and more. With ‘7/11,’ he makes it clear that he’s not going to rest on his laurels. Instead, he’s gearing up for even bigger and better things.”

Press bio:

“For Fresco Trey, connection has always been more important than clout. Powered by gentle melodies and vulnerable emotions, his songs swirl together romance, paranoia, and reflections on his come-up into blurry-eyed anthems for an introspective generation. Floating over moody keys, the Memphis-raised singer, rapper, and songwriter lays himself bare on songs like “Luv Don’t Live Here,” spilling out loneliness and desperate confession. But Trey isn’t afraid to explore the happier parts of himself. He kicks back and soaks up the vibes on hits like “Feel Good.” The single is an example of the talent he hopes will inspire fans through both good times and bad. After sharing his Ruff Ryders EP in early 2019, he broke out with “By My Side,” which showcased his knack for aspirational lyrics and memorable melodies. The track reached the ears of Post Malone and the Texas artist eventually invited Trey to travel with him on tour. With momentum at his back, a Post Malone cosign, and plans for a new EP, Trey is starting to look ahead to a hopeful future. He imagines himself as a superstar, atop the world’s stage. But that’s not what he’s most concerned with. As he thinks about his new music, he just wants to continue to make honest songs that fans can relate to, to help others feel seen and understood. “I’m just trying to show that I’m human,” says Trey.”
