12.6.12 - New Music - Ne-Yo

After finding success with the dance-pop-minded “Let Me Love You (Until You Learn To Love Yourself)”, Ne-Yo has chosen to stick with the EDM genre for his next single: “Forever Now”.

The single was produced by StarGate, the same team responsible for “Let Me Love You”. It’s no surprise either – the two songs are too similar, and both have fairly typical dance production. Sure, it will do well with the masses, but anyone who has been listening to dance for the past few years won’t be impressed.

I do like “Forever Now” better than its dance predecessor though, and this is due only to the writing. I take every chance I can to make fun of the poor writing on “LMLY”, but I can’t say the same for this new single. Is it amazing? No. Is it different enough so as to make the song better radio fare? Yes.
