More quotes by 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
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 feel like everything is inspired by something else. There is no 100 percent original thought.
Ne-Yo
For the first few years of my life my mom used to cut my hair so there were a lot of bowl-cut hair styles
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
She's super sexy everybody wanna know bout her and the one that everybody want, but no one's ever got her. Because the way she get it in all of the men, even the women all try, all try.
Ne-Yo
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.
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
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 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.
Ne-Yo
Grab somebody sexy, tell the hey!
Ne-Yo
I have my diehard R&B fans on one side of the spectrum and my diehard pop and dance fans on the other side of the spectrum.
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
My mom was the picture of the blue-collar mom: Two and three and four jobs to make sure that me and my sister never needed, that was her thing
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 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
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
What is hot now will not be hot tomorrow, I promise you. Trends are made to die. It's the truth.
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
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
