Ne-Yo Says Rihanna's New Album Is 'Absolutely Incredible'

Speaking on U.K. radio station Capital XTRA in London over the weekend after a performance at London's Royal Albert Hall during the week, singer/songwriter Ne-Yo spoke about his work, past and present, with Rihanna. They get him on the record on a variety of topics, including various beefs between artists, but get to focus on future Rihanna music and what his involvement in it might be.

He is coy in his response, as always, because he does not want to divulge too many details, but gives us his impression on some of the new material he has heard. He reveals he has done some sessions for her, but does not know whether or not they will make the final cut of the album. Giving his overall impression of the work he has heard, he says it is "absolutely incredible."

He continues, "Anybody who is a Rihanna fan is going to stay a Rihanna fan, and anybody who wasn't a Rihanna fan might become one."

Rihanna has been capturing headlines since she returned to Instagram, but people have really wanted to hear some new music from the pop superstar. She has been touring heavily since the release of her seventh artist album Unapologetic, but has gotten back in the studio with some big names, according to MTV, like David Guetta, DJ Mustard and Nicky Romero, with some songs written by Kiesza.

The talented singer/songwriter/dancer and occasional actor, Ne-Yo is gearing up to release his sixth studio album. He is busy working as a songwriter for other artists and has been on tour lately, but is slated to release his upcoming album Non Fiction in 2015. Ne-Yo has released several singles in 2014 in anticipation of the album, including the lead single "She Knows" with Juicy J.

There is no word on a release of Rihanna's upcoming album yet, but if Ne-Yo is excited, then you should be, too.
