Ne-Yo New CD In My Own Words is in stores
Thursday, March 02, 2006
Here's an interview excerpt with Ne-Yo.
Shelia: How would you categorize your music?
Ne-Yo: I wouldn’t categorize it. It’s quality R & B music. I tried to make good music and the hottest R & B album.
Shelia: What makes your album stand out from some of the rest?
Ne-Yo: A lot of R & B out today is kind of bland. Nothing against hip-hop, but some of R & B is taking away the melody of what R & B is by not singing but rapping. I’m trying to go back when people were actually singing…with a melody…it’s more musical.
Shelia: Who are some of your favorite singers?
Ne-Yo: Brian Mcknight, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Prince, Shirley Murdock, Anita Baker, Lionel Richie, Wanya Morris (Boyz II Men), I could go on and on. I was in a group before going solo. We were going to be a younger Boyz II Men.
