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-YoI pride myself on being the type of artist who can work half in the R&B world and half in the pop world.
Ne-YoWhat is hot now will not be hot tomorrow, I promise you. Trends are made to die. It's the truth.
Ne-YoEvery song I've ever written has been based in reality, based in fact, things that happen to me.
Ne-YoIf you want to be successful, you have to be the best person doing it. And in order to be the best person doing it, you have to get your work ethic right and keep going.
Ne-YoAs of right this second my main focus is my new album, it'll be out probably towards the summertime, predominately R&B this time. I had a little stint with the dance music and all of that, which I had a good time with- and I love the audience, I love them for accepting me doing it -but I had to go home on this one. Had to take it back to my roots, and not to say that there won't be one, maybe two songs on there that the dance crowd can get into, but the majority, the girth of the album, will be R&B.
