Ne-Yo Slams R.Kelly Over Double Up Tour Fiasco
Ne-Yo talked to Big Tigger this morning and explained the real reasons why he was dropped from the R.Kelly Double Up tour.Ne-Yo revealed that his departure was not due to contractual issues but because R.Kelly created unnecessary drama.
He adds that Kelly took up all 7 available dressing rooms for himself and told him and his dancers to go get ready in their bus.According to the artist R.Kelly also got jealous of the rave reviews he was getting saying:
“I believe it was because the first few reviews of the show, people were talking more about my set than his,” he told the BET cable network.
“I am disappointed that I won’t be able to perform for my fans,”
“I love being on stage in front of fans because of the immediate feedback you get. You know right away if they are feeling you; and they were really feeling our show.
He said during the interview that he still respects R. Kelly musically, but not as a man.
Nonetheless Ne-Yo hopes to get back on stage very fast for his loving fans,but this time he will most likely be touring as a solo artist.
Ne-Yo spoke with Big Tigger on the real reason he got booted from R.Kelly’s tour.

THIS IS CRAZY WHY WOULD THE KING OF R-B BE JEALOUS OF A NOBODY LIKE NEYO. ALL OF THE FEEDBACK FROM EARLIER CONCERTS WITH R.KELLY WERE AWESOME. R.KELLY WAS THE HEADLINER NOT NEYO . THEIR IS NO PERFORMER THAT CAN COMPETE WITH R.KELLYS CONCERT PERFORMANCES HE ALWAYS GIVES AN ELECTRFYING PERFORMANCE. WHEN NEYO HAS BEEN AT THE TOP OF HIS GAME LIKE R.KELLY HAS FOR 14 YEARS THAN MAYBE HE CAN GET TOP BILLING. NEYO WAS VERY FORTUNATE TO SHARE THE STAGE WITH A STAR WITH R.KELLYS TALENT AS USUAL WITH EVERYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH R.KELLY BLACKS HAVE BLOWN IT OUT OF CONTEXT. GOD BLESS THE KING OF R-B HE REIGNS SUPREME. I LOVE YOU R.KELLY
Kelly i agree with u. if anyone was causing unnecssary drama i think it was neyo. there is no way he will be as successful as r.kelly
Who can deliver tha best RNB performance is completely opinion. But it is true that critiques were giving better reviews for neyo. It’s hard to compare a performer who has been doin his thing for decades to someone who has been doin it for a few years. Neyo is more of a song writer than anything and working with some of the biggest names in the history of the business to include Michael Jackson who recently gave him mad props.
Like neyo said…R. Kelly is known for his b.s. Even Jay-Z will let you in on that. He may deserve some extra special treatment but it’s kinda mind bogggling to blow off a world wide multiplatinum artists like Neyo and Jay-Z.
He’s talented, but he has some personality issues.
Out of 5 shows Neyo only performed on two. How would you as a promoter keep a guy that had other places to be than the show on the tour. People out there please stop hating on R. Kelly coz it seems like an easy way out. Look into the facts and make your comments. Read my blog @
