Ne-Yo Passed On Signing Justin Bieber


Ne-Yo revealed to The Sun newspaper that he passed on signing Justin Bieber four years before Usher signed him because he was too young.

"He came to a show and performed and was incredible then. But I didn't do anything because he was 11".

He added "I have no regrets. Things happen for a reason. He wasn't supposed to be signed to me. Usher has done good. Where he is now is where he's meant to be."

Ne-Yo commented that Bieber's current material isn't "memorable".

"I still feel like he's figuring out things," he continued. "Once he gets some tangible records he'll be a force to be reckoned with. Ten years from now no one will be singing 'Baby'. It's good but not very memorable.

He continued, "Justin is great on the drums and the guitar. He has talent and potential to land up there with Justin Timberlake. Talent will take you further than looks, than how flat your stomach is."
