Ne-yo : In my own words Competition
Release Date : Out Now
Website : www.defjam.co.uk
At the tender age of twenty-two, Ne-Yo possesses lyrical and musical talent that are far beyond his years. Born into a family of musicians from Arkansas, Shaffer C. Smith a.k.a. Ne-Yo was raised in a single parent home by his mother. In hopes of a better opportunity, Ne-Yo’s mother relocated the family to Las Vegas Nevada; where Ne-Yo would discover his passion.
The singer/songwriter, penned on the biggest radio records of history (189.5 million listeners in one week) “Let Me Love You.” Written with Scott Storch and Kam Houf and performed by the R&B artist Mario, “Let Me Love You” is just a glimpse into the mind of a true writer and is an introduction to the music on his debut album, In My Own Words. “It’s a great song, and I’m really happy to have written it,” he says.
A master in the art of storytelling, Ne-Yo began writing at an early age. A vivid imagination and creative energy has allowed Ne-Yo to write songs for multi-platinum artists such as Mary J. Blige, B2K, Faith Evans, and Musiq. When asked about writing number one hits for other artists, simply put, Ne-Yo said, “I feel there is always room for good music. I want to reach people’s soul with my lyrics thru whatever vessel God chooses.”
Set to release his debut album In My Own Words on Def Jam Recordings, this dynamic entertainer is ready to deliver. Infusing pop melodies to rich, soulful production the album is sure to score with fans and critics alike. Relying on mostly his own in-house crew Compound, Ne-Yo creates both a unique sound and sentiment for his records. Songs like “Stay” (featuring Peedi Crack) exemplify Ne-Yo’s nuanced, layered vocals and sample free production. “So Sick”, a beautiful track in which he laments hearing love songs on the radio due to the feelings they conjure, reveals his voice to be clean and almost elated, but rich and weathered at the same time. But true to his charismatic character, the album shows many sides of Ne-Yo and even finds him lighter, more playful, even coy, on “When You’re Mad.” Sure cello hits move the track as Ne-Yo floats above, telling his woman that she’s even more beautiful when she’s mad.
