Ne-Yo’s ‘Tiny Desk’ Offers Medley of R&B Hits, Anthems He Penned for Rihanna, Beyoncé: Watch

Ne-Yo's 'Tiny Desk' concert included Beyonce and Rihanna covers -- which he wrote. Watch the performance.

The long-time bad-boy R&B singer made his Tiny Desk debut on Friday (April 26), which saw him run through a medley of soulful hits from his catalog, in addition to bops he’s penned for the likes of Mario, Rihanna and Beyoncé. Draped in a bedazzled all-white getup and his signature fedora hat, Ne-Yo fittingly kicked off his set with his “Because of You” anthem before moving into his introduction to the world with “So Sick” and the volcanic “Sexy Love.” He proceeded to deliver tuneful covers in an homage to his lethal pen with Rihanna’s “Take a Bow,” Bey’s “Irreplaceable” and Mario’s “Let Me Love You.”
