Ne-Yo Disturbed By Poor Album Sales


U.S R&B singer Ne-Yo has revealed that he is "disturbed" by the poor sales of his latest fourth studio album Libra Scale.

Ne-Yo told CW Detroit, "I was a little disturbed by my first week numbers, but a lot of things went into that first week number… the album getting leaked a month in advance definitely had something to do with it".

"That was another situation where I jumped on my soapbox [twitter] and let the world know how I felt about that. You know it’s the world we live in today, it’s the game. You either play the game or you get out.

He added: "I’m not gonna let the ignorance of some stop me from doing what I feel like I was put on this earth to do."

Libra Scale entered the UK album chart at number 11 and sold 117,000 copies in its first week in the US.

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."
