Ne-yo featured on TV One's Uncensored


NE-YO discovered his gift for singing during a high school prank. While attending private school, NE-YO was kicked out after an altercation with a female classmate and forced to attend public school. He eventually graduated and headed to Los Angeles with his R&B group Envy in hopes of landing a record deal. After six months of living out of a van, NE-YO called it quits and left the group. He built a career as a songwriter and subsequently landed a deal with Columbia Records, however, they eventually released him from his contract. Resigned to a career in songwriting, NE-YO found himself singing for the head of Def Jam, L.A. Reid, who signed him on the spot and launched his singing career. Today, NE-YO is making an impact far beyond his music – he’s a happily married father of four and is involved with several non-profit organizations, including his personal foundation that’s committed to enhancing the well-being of youth growing up in foster care and group homes.  Catch Ne-yo on Uncensored on April 7.
