On his new single Tyrese lets us know what we already knew…getting girls is too easy for him. The multi-talented star has unleashed his next official single, the Ludacris assisted “Too Easy.” This track is expected to aim at mainstream urban radio, while the great R&B cut “Stay” is geared to the adult audience. I’m not sold on this one yet, I think “I Gotta Chick” would do better, but we will see. Ty’s new album Open Invitation is due out November 1st.
