R&B singer Ne-Yo and New Kids on The Block performed on “The Today Show” this morning. This comes as Ne-Yo gears up for the Sept. 16 release of his third CD, “Year of the Gentleman”; and is enjoying remarkable success as a songwriter (Rihanna’s “Take A Bow”; Jennifer Hudson’s “Spotlight”; and his own top 10 single “Closer” and soon to be “Miss Independent”).
