Ne-Yo currently writing songs for Celine

[lordspootnik]

Def Jam's Platinum R&B Star Ne-Yo returns with a hot new single "Because of You" from his forthcoming album due in stores April 24! Ne-Yo is also currently writing songs for Celine Dion, Whitney Houston and Britney Spears.

 

Beginning with the release of Ne-Yo’s platinum debut In My Own Words in 2006, life hasn’t been the same for the Las Vegas native. “The transition from being in the background as a songwriter and being an artist took a little getting used to,” Ne-Yo laughs. “It’s a lot different being the guy that nobody knew two years ago to people asking for autographs, but, I’m not complaining.”

 

With the release of Ne-Yo’s sophomore disc, the talented performer is ready to reveal his stellar growth as a songwriter, his maturity as a man and his prowess as a performer. “I write from personal experience, so everything in my life becomes a part of my songs,” Ne-Yo confesses. “In my opinion, the essence of a good song provokes thought while also making you feel some kind of emotion.”

 

Ne-Yo also proved himself a masterful songwriter penning such gems as Rihanna’s "Unfaithful” top-ten hit “ and co-writing Beyonce’s mega-blast “Irreplaceable.” That track was on the Billboard Hot 100 number-one single for ten weeks. “I suppose growing-up around so many women must have given me some insight,” says Ne-Yo, who is currently writing songs for Celine Dion, Whitney Houston and Britney Spears. “I used to hear everything my mom, aunts and sisters would say about life and love. When I write songs for women, I pull from those learned experiences.”

 

In addition to winning the prestigious Male R&B/Hip-Hop Artist of the Year award at the 2006 Billboard Awards (where he was also a nominee in three other categories, including Male Artist of the Year, New Artist of the Year, and R&B/Hip-Hop Single of the Year for “So Sick,” his premiere single) and was nominated for two 2007 Grammy’s: Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for his chart-topping hit “So Sick” and Best Contemporary R&B Album.

Ok, what about the songs that you wrote for her?

I did some uptempos, some ballads; I just don't know what's going to happen with 'em, cause as I said, she's going through parent struggles and I ain't going to sit on some songs just cause you're going through something - the song gotta move. So they either wind up with Britney or they don't. I did about six to eight songs. So let's see what happens with that. But I'm doing some stuff with Whitney Houston as we speak - her and Jennifer Hudson, as a matter of fact. I just had a really, really good talk with Celine Dion and her husband about doing some stuff for her. She's trying to come back; you know, we talking about how it's been a minute since she had an album out, so she definitely wants to do something new, but not so much current. She said, "I don't want 'Irreplaceable'; I don't want what you've done before. I'm not Beyonce, I can't do what Beyonce does."
