New Music: Ne-Yo- “All Because Of You”

by admin ·

Not too long ago, Ne-Yo told us that even as he was engulfed in the Scream Tour, he was working on his sophomore album. He just released the first single, “All Because Of You,” and fans can check it out at his myspace page.

The romantic track has that soulful, mid-tempo bounce that fans have come to expect from the singer/songwriter and should be a hit with his most important fans… the ladies.

“Please believe that when I am sitting down writing a song I am absolutely paying attention to what women want,” he told us. “Women do kinda rule what’s going on in the world. Period. I’m one of the few men on the planet that realize that fact and I think it makes me a better man for it.”

The yet-to-be-titled album is due in the Spring. The Grammy-nominee can be seen in the current smash movie, “Stomp The Yard” and is currently in the studio with Britney Spears and Rihanna. He’s also writing songs for Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, and Alicia Keys for their upcoming albums.
