Shaffer Chimere Smith , better known by his stage name Ne-Yo, is an American R&B and pop singer-songwriter, and an occasional rapper. He is of Afro-Asian (African-American and Chinese-American) heritage.


Ne-Yo's debut album, In My Own Words, was released in early 2006 through Def Jam Recordings, and debuted at number one on Billboard 200, selling over 301,000 copies in the first week and certified platinum. During the same week, Ne-Yo's Stargate-produced second single "So Sick" reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Ne-Yo is as famous for his songwriting as for his singing, writing such songs as Rihanna's top ten hit "Unfaithful", Mario's "Let Me Love You", Mario Vazquez's "Gallery", Paula DeAnda's "Walk Away (Remember Me)", and Beyonce's Billboard Hot 100 ten-week number-one hit "Irreplaceable".
