Ne-Yo

By Maura An item in yesterday’s Page Six identified Ne-Yo as “rapper Ne-Yo,” even though he’s, you know, a singer. And this wasn’t the first time the Rupert Murdoch-bankrolled tabloid has committed this factual error to print, nor was it the first time that it’s misidentified an African-America...

By chynablaq Since Ne-Yo’s first coming onto the music industry scene, there have always been rumors about his sexuality. There have been rumors that he reportedly came out to the public many of times, but there is no hard evidence of those rumors. Ne-Yo has continued to deny rumors of his sexuality and h...

One of those experiences, of course, was ex-boyfriend Chris Brown assaulting her in February, and Ne-Yo understands why people might think some of the songs are about him. "I don't know. I mean, just going by the natural mind-state of people, yes, most likely [they'll think she's singing a...

And to the fans who think the track is too dark for a club favorite like Rihanna, Ne-Yo suggests they look back into music history. "It's definitely dark, but if you think about it, [Michael Jackson's] 'Thriller' was dark, but it's one of the biggest-selling records of all time," he argued.

A press release from Def Jam stated that Rihanna worked with the likes of Tricky Stewart, Justin Timberlake, Chase & Status, and Stargate on the album. But she also hooked up with Ne-Yo, who wrote and produced "Russian Roulette."

By www.urbanreview.co.uk As Previously Reported - Ne-Yo Is Currently Preparing For The Release Of His Third Studio Album - Year Of The Gentleman. Let Just Be is rumoured to be an album track from the forthcoming venture, on first listen, it's pretty good. Solid vocals, smooth production & the same, now classic writing style that we have come to expect from the unstoppable Ne-Yo. From what I have heard of the new new project, Year Of The Gentleman seems to be shaping up to be a really good effort. Ne-Yo has obviously developed well as an artist, this new European sound id really doing it for me.   [read the full post]

By www.urbanreview.co.uk Who Knew Ne-Yo Was Prepping A New Album Already? Not Me, That's For Sure. The project, entitled - Year Of The Gentleman is pencilled in for release on June the 24th & promises to move Ne-Yo in a new direction. Instead of the 'conventional' or contemporary R&B, he is apparently opting for a more international Club/Dance feel. This seems to be a new trend for R&B artists, with Danity Kane, Beyonce, Michelle Williams & now Ne-Yo all heading for the European scene. Still, from what I have heard from these artists, it seems to be a good look. Closer is one hot joint, it's fast paced, banging production, catchy lyrics & top vocal arrangements make for one of the most addictive tracks I have heard in a long time, it will be an internat...   [read the full post]

By www.urbanreview.co.uk Here Is Another New Track To Leak From Ne-Yo New Project - Year Of The Gentleman. Used To You incorporates more of Ne-Yo's new style, it's deep banging beats are complimented well by Ne-Yo's perfectly pitched vocals, he flows brilliantly over the production. While not as instantly likeable as Closer, it is definitely worthy of making his final cut for the album. I am really liking the new Ne-Yo sound, it's much more grow up than previous efforts & shows why he is a Grammy Award winning artist, i cannot see this guy fading away for a long time to come. The fact that he can adapt & change style is a real strength & shows potential longevity in his career.   [read the full post]

New Year, Same Ne-Yo. Here Is The Brand New Video From The Reigning King Of R&B. Go On Girl is set to be the next single lifted from his current hit-filled album; Because Of You. Although I'm not a massive Ne-Yo fan, I find it near impossible to hate on him, his charisma & style make him a real star. However, I don't love this song, I don't love this album, & with Usher on the way with his next offering, I think it's time for Ne-Yo to step up, or fall back.   [read the full post]
