“My fans are amazingly dedicated and creative,” said Trey Songz. “Working with the Slidely Slow Motion app gives them a chance to show me how inspired and resourceful they can be by using my latest single as their artistic backdrop. I am excited to see what they come up with.”
Two contest winners will be selected from the pool of entrants. The grand prize winner, as determined by Trey Songz, will win a variety of prizes including Trey Songz gear and a Samsung Galaxy Note® 10.1 2014 Edition, preloaded with Trey Songz’s new “Trigga Reloaded” album. The fan-voted winner’s prizes include a variety of Trey Songz gear, as well as a chance to be featured on Trey Songz and Slidely’s social channels.
“Since its inception, Atlantic Records always has been a driving force in music trends, so working together in promoting one of their biggest stars and Trey’s phenomenal new single through the power of Slidely has been tremendous fun,” said Tom More, CEO of Slidely. “Slidely’s mission is to inspire and empower users to get creative with their visual storytelling, and use the power of music to amplify the emotional aspect, so this contest is a great example of how extending the power of storytelling through Slidely allows people to show and tell amazing things in their own creative ways. We’re bringing out their uniqueness.”
“We’re always looking for ways to expand the fan base of great artists like Trey Songz, so when we learned about Slidely, it just clicked,” said Dionnee Harper, Vice President of Marketing at Atlantic Records. “The passion and emotion that can be teased out of a Slidely is something that offers real opportunity – and in a variety of ways – for our artists and their fans.”
