I honestly don't feel that it's my music that's under-appreciated. I think that it's me that's under-appreciated. As an artist, period.

More quotes by Ne-Yo
I do not cook. However, if I did, I'd cook all Italian food, all the time.
Ne-Yo
There is no pain like the first time you get your heart broken.
Ne-Yo
That is the difference between a good song and a bad song lyrically - if you can listen to it and put yourself in that place, or see that person in that place, normally it is a pretty good song.
Ne-Yo
Every song I've ever written has been based in reality, based in fact, things that happen to me.
Ne-Yo
Grab somebody sexy, tell the hey!
Ne-Yo
I'm 100% real, even when what's real is ugly. I don't take any pride in covering up, hiding and lying.
Ne-Yo
I watch cartoons the way most adults watch reality-TV shows.
Ne-Yo
Everybody wants me to be the (guy) who's (sleeping with) every celebrity woman in the industry. Everybody wants me to be this (guy) in the club, popping 17 bottles just because. Everybody wants me to be Diddy, and that's not me.
Ne-Yo
I feel like everything is inspired by something else. There is no 100 percent original thought.
Ne-Yo
What is hot now will not be hot tomorrow, I promise you. Trends are made to die. It's the truth.
Ne-Yo
I named my album Year of the Gentleman. Just looking at how the essence of what it is to be a gentleman is very much lacking nowadays. Someone said to me that chivalry is dead, and I hated to have to agree, but it's true.
Ne-Yo
Michael Jackson will live forever through the thing that he put all of his life energy into: his music. I will do my part to keep the melody alive, to keep the energy forever changing form, but never ever dying!! Long live Michael Jackson.
Ne-Yo
A lot of time we don't get into politics because we don't believe anything you're saying and we can't understand what you're saying because we ask you question and you tap dance around the issue so much that we forget what we asked.
Ne-Yo
I probably wouldn't be singing if not for Michael Jackson. When I started singing, I didn't like my tone until my mom put me on to Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder, so listening to the way they used their instrument helped me get more comfortable with my own.
Ne-Yo
I pride myself on being the type of artist who can work half in the R&B world and half in the pop world.
Ne-Yo
I want to write for people that are trying to do some kind of quality music. What I mean by quality music is not so much the trend, what is hot right now. I don't write trendy, I write what feels good and something that feels good will never get old. Timeless music is what I try to shoot for.
Ne-Yo
Prince is the ultimate performer. Prince is that dude that's going to get on stage by himself, if he need to, but hold you in the palm of his hand. Like, you can't take your eyes off the man when he's on stage, and he could just be sitting there playing his guitar.
Ne-Yo
If you believe in yourself, it doesn't matter what others might be telling you is impossible. It's all up to you!
Ne-Yo
Sexy as she wanna be and she dancing next so close to me. I said please excuse, you steppin on expensive shoes.
Ne-Yo
I wanted to do an acting role in a movie that had nothing to do with the music business or in which I would play a singer or a songwriter. When I act, I don't even want to be thought of as Ne-Yo.
