NE-YO 3x Grammy Winner, Perception vs Reality, Finding Peace in Public Eye & Fatherhood | The Pivot

[@gyoung09]

My favourite R&B artist. I know he got 3 Grammys but it always feels imo like he never gets the recognition he deserves from the general public. To use a term from the sports world, dude is a generational talent. 🙏🎶

[@gulledahmed2954]

He needs his proper flowers

[@Carolinakid1984]

Finally back to back episodes of two great guest that were requested

[@DrewGems]

This interview was dope... I definitely wanted to hear his answer to the question right as the show was closing though. "Do you feel a responsibility to let the music age with you?" It's good to hear where artists , who've been great for so long, are at now as they continue to do what they love... and how they feel about the ways the industry has changed over time.

[@DrewGems]

BTW... I literally just saw Ne-Yo live this past Friday, so the timing of this was impeccable to round up that experience. He's definitely a top performer, top writer, and one of the most genuine and good people out of music. It's crazy how similar my life and a lot of my perspectives are to his. He grew up around a lot of women in his family, I also did... and his whole philosophy and ideas about the "now", is something that has been apart of my own for some time. We spend way too much time worrying about things that either happened in the past and we can no longer change... or too far ahead that we don't even know whether or not will happen. All we have is literally, right now... in this moment. I think this is one thing that can and will forever change the human species and a lot of our conditions, mentally. Depression is living in the past. Anxiety is living in the future.

[@sharonblossom9587]

That’s my dude. So sick got me through my divorce .Thank you Neyo for some of my favorite jams. Another dope interview Pivot. 🙌🏾

[@Twink_Hunter]

Being able to think like a woman is a gift that sounds so easy but a very intricate tool

[@jenniferrosalynn3188]

Channing said don’t embarrass me 😂😂

[@Twink_Hunter]

NE-YO is a great artist but a elite songwriter of the highest order

[@charlenesmall8358]

Neyo just don't give AF and i respect his honesty. What matters most is his family. I love it

[@michellebarrett2099]

Really? Hes been in the news for some awful shit dealing with his family😅

[@michellebarrett2099]

If it wasn't for sports and music . Just saying.....

[@ah8064]

How other people feel about us is none of our business. ✨✨✨ It takes a while to learn and adhere to this but it’s so liberating!

[@vittiriowashington5211]

Energy budget

[@Nate-hw1nc]

Powerful talking about his emotions!

[@T--T2.0]

To err is human, to forgive is divine! No one is perfect, being a musical celebrity doesn't make one above making mistakes. The same mercy that we expect whenever we are wrong, we need to extend to others whenever they are wrong!

[@Brandii_BMMR]

People let on Ne-Yo..but he was one the most talented artist..and delivers every time..to hear the humble conversation was great insight ..to remind people that celebrities are people too..let's goooo PIVOT ...keep it coming👏🏿👏🏻👏🏽👏🏿👏🏻👏🏽

[@tigerjsteal]

*still is. Popularity doesn't determine talent. Forever will be a quality artist!

[@christinebryant8354]

People are born with talent! It’s in his DNA 🧬 that’s why he’s special 🎤

[@markdavis8858]

Most definitely everybody can't play football everybody can't sing rap whatever the case might be you are born with that Talent

[@leekyoverhere]

Damn what an incredible interview. NeYo is a generational talent man this is great stuff. Seem like a good man and intelligent artist. Solid. Love to the Pivot!

[@tommclain8893]

Ne-Yo deep caring man knows which side is up. I never knew much about til now. He has my respect. Pivot excellent, fun time spent.

[@BLJtheYoutbeAddict]

IMO he’s one of my top 5 artists of all time. Catalog was widely successful throughout the 2000’s into the 2020’s and the credits he has as a songwriter/producer are phenomenal. Severely/criminally underrated artist who keeps reinventing himself to stay successful throughout an ever changing music landscape 👏🏽🙌🏽👏🏽🙌🏽

[@rdottwordottwo2286]

This is such a nice interview! Luv the pivot!

[@equality616]

The Pivot has done it again! Great interview!

[@dashiarahmaan8478]

Guys that was a great interview. I really love the way Ne-Yo answered the questions. Y’all are amazing together!! This has to be by far one of my favorite podcasts.❤

[@cestmoi5702]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!! I don't know his music, but now I'm curious because of how powerful this man is. He is wise.
