Ne-Yo is going with "miss independent" as the the second single off the yet to drop album "Closer" I think it's hot tell me what you think. You can listen on YouTube.

Yea, he always has at least one song on each album that's got a great/different perception on relationships. He's probably the best conceptual writer/artists in recent years.

I agree with you 100%. Good point. He maybe around for along time, we will see.

It's an aiite track for me. I've heard several other songs (im not sure it'll be in the new album) but it looks like he's trying more up tempo songs. But the song, Forbidden Fruit seems like a good song ;)

I think it made the cut already. And the album has an offical release.

yea... i think people can argue his lyrical talent, but when it comes to concepts, its hard to top wat neyo does:

gallery- mario vasquez
wonderful-marques houston
i can't win-usher
because of you-himself
let me love you-mario
so sick-(as mentioned by ilikeit)himself

each of these shows versatility in his writing.
Not only that, but if this guy has no talent, why would Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston request his help with their new albums? Because these legends recognize his talent. The reason why a lot of people don't like him is b/c his music appeals to everyone including kids(due to its pop appeal). As an adult, I appreciate his albums with a certain respect that say a 15 year old suburban girl can't. I'll bump "mirror" or "time" before "sexy love". I'll bump "don't worry me now" before "go on girl". Unlike trey songz or ray j, neyo has staying power, writing ability, and versatilty.

Thank you bunky, I couldn't have said it better. An artist is an artist. Music is art so therefore you're not going to like everything. But don't dismiss his talent. With all art sometimes you don't get it the first time you look at it and you're like what is this? And then you take a step back with fresh eyes and then see it's a masterpiece.

I agree completely. People are so quick to dismiss real talent based on what the hear through someone or just not giving it enough of a chance.

We're not trying to jump on you or anything Supreme but when you debate your feels on an artist you have to add more than "I don't like Ne-yo". And at the end of the day to each it's own. :)
