[edit] New Direction
Before releasing the track, Trina told Billboard.com that " I'm stepping my game up like 10 notches...I think definitely the first single [“Single Again”] with me singing on the hook. That was so different. I was in the studio like, 'Okay, I’m not a singer so what am I doing?' But I went from humming along in my head to making it a reality out loud. And when I sang the hook, everybody was like, 'Oh that’s crazy!' It was a lot of fun for me".[1]
[edit] Release
The original version of the track was stolen from Slip-N-Slide records and subsequently leaked to the internet. Christina Milian sang the chorus on the original, but for whatever reason, Trina confirmed that the version with Christina Milian will not make the album. On the album version, Trina herself will sing the chorus.
[edit] Video
There is currently a contest for fans to be in the video. There are two categories to enter in, and two winners will be chosen. The winners will be chosen by fans. The video will be shot on location in Miami on the 28th of December.[2] Dirctor is Billy Woodruff. Pictures of the video shoot are posted on her official myspace page. One scene is at a beach. another in the Mansion in the pool later on at night the same area but a wedding is taking place.The Video was shot at the FrostShot Mansion, in Miami, Florida owned by founder and president of World Frost Inc. Juan Echeverri, which also sponsored the video by inserting the companies Frozen Liquor Shot, FrostShot.
The video premiered on February 11th 2008 on Yahoo Videos. It consisted of a wedding,in which Trina is the bride who discovers her soon to be husband was cheating on her with another woman. She then leaves him at the altar. Further shots consist of Trina with Friends at the pool, as well as attempts from her man to reconcile, but to no avail, as Trina chucks the phone into the pool. Later, we see Trina dancing in a hall surrounded by curtains and at a party with friends. The video then fades to black.
[edit] Remix
The official Remix features Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Plies and a new verse by Trina herself. Ironically, Wayne dated Trina from early 2005 until October 2006 (and is speculated to be the topic of the song), and in his verse he states that he believes the two will get back together eventually. It was meant to feature on "Still Da Baddest", Trina said herself on a short video promoting the album that it would feature the "Single Again Remix" but it did not appear on the album (on any edition)
