As it’s been said, the internet has no chill — and this weekend was no exception. Somehow, fans of the STARZ hit series Power were able to get their hands on an episode prior to the Season 6 premiere, which airs on Sunday night (August 25).
For the past five seasons, vocal duties for the show’s “Big Rich Town” theme song has been handled by 50 Cent and R&B singer Joe. But for Season 6, Joe has been replaced by Trey Songz.
Evidently, viewers felt Trey’s contribution to the update was so horrendous, Twitter lit up with reactions to the remix.
The memes haven’t stopped flowing since Saturday (August 24). In fact, Trey quickly became a trending topic on the social media platform.
While there were a couple of people who didn’t mind the switch, unfortunately for Trey, the majority of commenters ruled the song was an epic failure.
Check out Twitter being Twitter below.
Sounds pretty good actually.
HORRIBLE. Joe brings a more grown and smooth vibe to it.
Omg!!! MAMA NOOOOOOOO!!!!! You are such a perfectionist so why would you slaughter the theme song? Guess we had 2 deaths during POWER episode, Angela and the theme song.
Way to capture the moment again with the right picture for the moment lmao
50 knows better. Put Joe back on there . you don’t mess with a good thing
50 Cent’s new verses were the bigger problem to me. Not Trey’s vocals. He tried to sneak in and use the show to bring his career back. That’s not the way to do it.
HIP-HOP is not RAP, RAP is real and HIP-HOP is what you got on MTV.
Did u like how it sounded honestly trey
I love power 50 cent knew that wasn’t right fix it bruh trey song ok but joe killed it point blank
As a producer I actually like this version better. Y’all made a big deal out of nothing. The song is actually quite good.
