Do you have about six or seven minutes? You really owe it to yourself to listen to this bizarre and confusing radio interview with the singer at the center of the Chris Brown gay rumors.
New singer-songwriter Martyn has previously claimed on Twitter and via representatives that the rumors of a "down low" relationship with Chris Brown were indeed true. Over the course of seven minutes, Martyn reaffirms this, then denies it, then claims he "was just repeating what other people were saying" and ultimately says is was "sarcasm."
"But some of it is true!" adds Martyn. "But most of it is not! We had a twitter conversation ... but it was changed!"
Martyn implies that he may have been "paid" to keep quiet. Oh and no comment on Trey Songz. Too bad! Listen AFTER THE JUMP ...

Chris Brown has tweeted an angry denial over an internet rumor that claimed he was involved in an ongoing "downlow" relationship with an up-and-coming male singer ... and on the "receiving end" of the man-sex. The rumor was sparked by (obviously faux) alleged screenschots of a series of private Twitter messages.
"Stop photoshopping fake conversations bruh!" said Brown of the alleged messages "verified" by singer Martyn. "That's pause!"
"I got a nigga lying out here for two minutes of fame," Brown tweeted. "That's a pause moment my G. I'll let my lawyers handle it from here."
Martyn claims the screenshots are legitimate and also boasts of affairs with "BQ Sex Sirens" Trey Songz and Omarion. Brown allegedly refers to the Trey Songz jump off in another purported tweet ... and allegedly compliments Martyn's vocal and lyrical talents on the newbie's "debut single".
What's more unbelivable? That Breezy would tweet xxx messages to someone that he doesn't even follow? Or that people actually fall for this ish? SMDH.

R&B poptart and "BQ Sex Siren" realness Trey Songz covers the newest issue of Billboard and manages to keep his clothes on. But the interview details how Trey's abs, pecs and NC-17 lyrics were carefully choreographed into a major selling point.
Songz was willing to submit himself to the kind of wholesale reinvention that's usually the provenance of single-named female pop stars: He changed his look from head to toe -- lopping off those braids, for starters -- put crooning about love on the back burner and started singing about sex. Lots and lots of sex. "The public likes generic more than they like to admit, so that's what I gave them -- I gave them sexual singles and they ate it up," Songz says about the string of blatantly sexed-up hits from "Ready." "I gave them two whole albums before this one -- on one I talked about a mother's love for her son and a father not being there, and on the other I made a song about safe sex. They were well accepted but not as much as the records on 'Ready.' The singles were purposely very sexual to capture people's attention."
Don't forget this:
Between albums, Songz went through a fairly dramatic physical makeover. He chopped his braids down to a low cut and traded his baggy jeans, white-on-white Nike Air Force Ones and tank tops for custom-fitted suit pants, button-ups and hard-bottom shoes. He also began hitting the gym and bulking up, building definition in his arms and torso, which he decorated with tattoos. When "Ready" came out, he looked less like a high school boy and more like a man.
There's also a he-said, he-said version of why Trey Songz decided to go cut his braids. Oh and more on the new "Bottoms Up" track with bi-friendly rap starlet Nicki Minaj. Heeheee.
