Ne-yo channels Prince, Camille and Andre Cymone

Ne-yo has a song called "Sex with My Ex" on his new cd. It sound like he is channeling Prince, Camille and Andre Cymone. I'm NOT much a of Ne-yo so called fan, but I LOVE this track.

It sounds like an old Andre Cymone track from back in the day.

Intersting comments. I'm not big on Neyo but I love this track. I guess because it reminds me of Prince and Andre.

I'm not crazy about him either. Mainly cuz he bites so much off of Michael. I've heard this song that the thread is about in the car with this girl. I was kinda surprised actually cuz I thought the only artist that he was trying to be was MJ.

Oh please, I am so damn sick of all these gay accusations. Why does every man in showbiz have to be accused of being gay??? I am so tired of hearing people complaining about this and that guy not confessing to the world what he really is and blah blah blah. And anyways, why do we care so much about someones sexual orientation?! It's about the MUSIC so I don't give a rat's ass if someone is homosexual or not.

People always accuse R&B singers of being gay and that's some ol' bullshit because it's probably the rappers who be fucking each other.

Anyway, Ne-Yo's album is really good(It's one of the few albums I've bought). I'm not feeling 2 songs but the others are great. I love "Angel". Has anyone noticed that "Go On Girl" sounds JUST LIKE Beyonce's "Irreplaceable"? I know he wrote them both but WOW

It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

hmmm

I just listened to a sample.

Definitely sounds "Prince-ish" and I can see the reference to Andre Cymone.

The big question for me is; Isn't that the beat to "Last Night" by P-Diddy?
By St. Boogar and all the saints at the backside door of Purgatory!
