Ne-Yo couldn’t help himself during a karaoke performance of “Because Of You” – he had to step in and take over the mic.
On Monday night (Aug. 14), he jumped in on a performance of his own song, because there is no one who can do it better than the artist himself, after all.
Ne-Yo put an arm around the fan’s shoulders and sang along on the chorus of the title track from his 2007 album without completely stealing the spotlight. The friendly rapper then gave the mic back to the man who started the song to finish it.
Ne-Yo, whose real name is Shaffer Chimere Smith, shot to fame with his 2006 debut album In My Own Words. He is set to release his seventh studio album, Good Man later this year.
