Ne-Yo is an American composer, singer, dancer, music producer, and actor who rose to prominence as a songwriter in 2004 when his song "Let Me Love You," written for singer Mario, became a smash. The song so impressed Def Jam's label head that he agreed to sign a recording contract with him. Ne-Yo grew up in a musical family and acquired an early interest in songwriting. Her mother was really encouraging and encouraged him to pursue his interest as a career. He began his musical career with the band Envy, with whom he sadly parted ways in 2000. After leaving Envy, he acquired a job with Columbia Records, but his music record project could not get off the ground for more than a year, causing him to depart. He finally made his breakthrough in 2006 with the album "In My Own Words," which was a huge hit and reached number one on the Billboard 200 chart. He went on to have a string of successful record releases, and he became one of the most in-demand songwriters. Ne-Yo not only made a name for himself as a songwriter, but he also demonstrated his abilities as a singer, dancer, and actor. He has appeared in a number of films, including 'Stomp the Yard,' 'Battle: Los Angeles,' 'Red Tails,' and others.
He had a son named Mason Evan Smith and a daughter named Madilyn Grace Smith with Monyetta Shaw . He married Crystal Renay in 2016, and the couple welcomed a son named Shaffer Jr. that same year. In January 2018, they had a second son together.
