Hot Ne-Yo dropped from R. Kelly tour
By: J. Koni
 Ne-Yo has been dropped from R.Kelly's Double Up tour, and the official reason is that there is a contractual dispute. However, a representative from Ne-Yo's camp believes R.Kelly is afraid of the competition! "R.Kelly fired the singer because he brought too much heat for him to compete against."
"He's written hit songs for Beyonce ("Irreplaceable") and Rihanna ("Unfaithful"); spending a combined 19 weeks at No. 1 on the Hot 100," Ne-Yo's business partner and manager, Tango, said in a statement. "He's written songs slated to be on Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Lionel Richie, and Enrique Iglesias' new albums. The fans were really feeling his performances. He's good; maybe he's too good – that's the problem."
Giving his opinion, Ne-Yo added: "I don't understand their actions because I was rehearsing, doing media, promoting the tour, and performing. In my opinion, I was doing everything possible to make the tour a success. 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. To my fans and ticket holders – I apologize if you are disappointed," he said.
Allan Mayer, R. Kelly's representative declared that the singer had nothing to do with Ne-Yo's dismissal: "Ne-Yo's departure from the Double Up tour was the result of a contractual issue between him and the tour promoter. R. Kelly had nothing to do with it."

Yow "U Pupa", stop hating the two big man dem. Namely Beenie Man and R Kelly. First of all the man dem proclamation is inevitable, it natural dem larger than the business so thats why dem is the king of it. Dont hate palyers, hate the game
And guess wa nobody can rock the stage, the club or the scene like dem two man deh, deh have it lock. Dem look good, can dress, lyrics tight and mek bare money dan me an u, so ease off and show dem some love cause wa dem do nuh easy and no matter wa me or u sa dem still ago roll the way dem a roll and mek di papers said speed. So chill and promote positiveness and if u nuh have nothing good fi sa shut u mouth.
Me not even touch di ne-yo issue, all em have fi sa is R kells work with almost every artist in the world, the man can sing write and the works; so for some silly people fi a sa di man bad mind ne-yo, (fi wa). A wa u tell me who can rock di mike betta and keep di crowd lock, Ne-yo or kells- u ansa dat and tell me who fi bad mind who?????
