Over two years since his last album, Ne-Yo returns with his sixth LP Non-Fiction, in stores today. Inspired by “true stories” and “real people,” the follow-up to R.E.D. boasts appearances from T.I., Jeezy, and ScHoolboy Q, with production from Shea Taylor, Stargate, Key Wane, and Glass John.
The singer-songwriter takes it to the dance floor with David Guetta (“Who’s Taking You Home”) and Pitbull (“Time of Our Lives”), hits the strip club with Juicy J (“She Knows”), and channels Michael Jackson (“Coming With You”).
“It’s quality music at the end of the day. I wanted to get to the place where people don’t consider genre when they think of me,” said Ne-Yo. “It might be dance, it might be R&B, it might be polka, but it’s gonna be good.”
Rolling Stone gave it 2.5 out of 5 stars, while USA Today awarded it 3 out of 4.
