Bio

NE-YO has sold more than 20 million albums worldwide. His first single, 2005’s “So Sick,” hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and was certified quadruple Platinum. Since then, he has racked up a collection of hit singles – including “Sexy Love,” “Closer,” “Because of You” and “Miss Independent” – and three of his albums have entered SoundScan’s Top Current Albums chart at No. 1. NE-YO, who has won three GRAMMY® awards and 14 nominations, has proven to be as powerful with his pen as he is in the recording studio and on stage. The Las Vegas native quickly became known as a go-to hitmaker, penning bangers like Rihanna’s “Unfaithful,” “Russian Roulette,” and “Take a Bow,” along with Beyoncé’s 2006 breakup anthem “Irreplaceable” and songs for such artists as Jennifer Hudson, Usher, Carrie Underwood, Celine Dion, among others. NE-YO’s film and television credits include ''Save the Last Dance,'' ''Battle: Los Angeles,'' ''Stomp the Yard,'' George Lucas' ''Red Tails,'' ''Empire,'' “World of Dance,” ''The Wiz Live!'' and “Step Up: High Water.” In addition to following me on LinkedIn, you can follow me on Twitter @NeYoCompound, on Instagram @neyo, and on Facebook @neyo
