Lil` Tre is Singing All the Way

A new R & B recording artist, who happens to be 12-years-old, is making waves with his soulful music. His second single release through Sel`Sum Records, `Baby Girl`, from the forthcoming CD `Music in Me`, is proving to be just as big as his first single release `That Girl`.

Naturally gifted, this pre-teen sensation has a show business background, as his father `Simply` is a songwriter/producer, while his mother Tangela heads the label for which he records. Since first appearing on the national music scene (only a few short months ago), Tr? has been featured on many entertainment websites and in various international newspapers and magazines including on-going issues of Word UP Magazine. He continues selling out records at the FYE and other record store chains with both single releases. In an interview Tr? was asked, `How do you feel about the success you`re having?` Tr? responds, `Ah! Well, I am getting to do the things I never did before, I get to live out my dreams. Also I get to meet a whole bunch of good people, this is really a great experience for me!`

Tr?, who has opened shows for teen acts B5, Mario, Marcus Houston and headlined at New York?s Apollo Theater at the onset of summer 2005, also met and took photos with Bow Wow (who he has strongly admired for years) as he continues to tour throughout various cities all over the U.S. Having performed on the Coca Cola sponsored `Summer Jam` earlier this year and most recently completing performances on the Health Jam Edutainment tour (which consisted of high schools throughout the five boroughs of New York) among other live performances, to more than enthusiastic and welcoming audiences. In addition, he continues to make in-store appearances at countless record stores and radio stations throughout the country.
