Product Description: No Description Available No Track Information Available Media Type: CD Artist: NE-YO Title: BECAUSE OF YOU Street Release Date: 05/01/2007 Domestic Genre: RAP/HIP HOP
Amazon.com: Kelly Clarkson, kindly step aside: the title "Because of You" now belongs to Ne-Yo, who has done things with it no one with a pair of hands to clap will soon forget. And not just on the phenomenally appealing first single. Throughout Because of You, the sophomore disc by the songwriter responsible for such monster hits as Beyoncé's "Irreplaceable" and Rihanna's "Unfaithful," a flutter-voiced fluidity--the kind seldom heard since Michael Jackson's Off the Wall days--reigns. Jay-Z makes room to let it rip on "Crazy," and Jennifer Hudson wraps herself around it with restraint on "Leaving Tonight," a lovers' quarrel that could hold its own against anything Marilyn McCoo & Billy David Jr. cared to toss off in their heyday. If it's MJ who's lingered in Ne-Yo's ear longest, Prince hasn't gone silent, either: echoes poke up on the far-out "Sex with My Ex." Elsewhere, shades of contemporaries such as Nelly and Diddy show through. Overall, though, Ne-Yo's flammable hooks, flirty vibe, and flawless vocals reveal an R&B genius in the making. If the talent bar for up-and-comers is set impossibly high in the coming years, chances are it will be all because of him. --Tammy La Gorce

I think Ne-Yo's second effort is most likely a step back from his first effort . Where so sick, when your mad and sexy love really made me feel his music. I don't think this album was as strong a think because of you,go on girl where his best efforts and his duet with Jennifer Hudson was great the rest is kinda just there I think he needs to move away from only love songs and try some new things as he does'nt appear as versatile as say J.Holiday but he is several notches above Chris Brown I am also feel perhaps Ne-Yo is rushing his product out as soon he will have a 3rd album out he may need to step back as he may risk becoming over exposed . Ne-Yo is a very good vocalist along with a great songwriter but he must build to being a more complete ... Read More:

Because of You is pretty much, In My Own Words Part Two. He sticks to alot of the same methods that he had on his first album. He doesnt really work with big name producers except Stargate, which he works with alot less on this album. But the one thing he did change up on this album is there is alot more slow jams. But he doesnt do the slow jams very well like i was expecting him to. The writing on this album is still on point. But the production is a little off i think. This album has alot more darker appearance than his first album did. There are some standouts though, like the heavenly bright spring song, "Angel", which just has a very mellow and laid back vibe to it. And then the mid tempo ballad "Do You" is another excellent track, in some ... Read More:
