Rapper Ne-Yo has hit out at R Kelly after being axed from the ‘I Believe I Can Fly’ singer’s tour.
Ne-Yo was bumped off their joint US jaunt little more than a week after it started on November 14, and the rapper firmly believes this was because his sets were receiving a better response.
He blasted: "I believe it was because the first few reviews of the show, people were talking more about my set than his."
Continuing to the BET Cable Network, he said: "I am disappointed that I won't be able to perform for my fans. I love being on stage in front of fans because of the immediate feedback you get. You know right away if they are feeling you; and they were really feeling our show."
Kelly’s camp have insisted that the ditching of Ne-Yo was due to contractual reasons.

- ...Ok....Jealous C’mon Ne-Yo...U are o.k. But R.Kelly has more hits than your age. As well Real Raw Talent as far as stage show...maybe u did...but Real Talk. I would rather hear R. Kelly muisc he has music for every mood you can think of and some you can’t think of. I wish Ne-Yo well but I don’t think he will last 15 years in the game like R. Kelly has. I don’t want to see no michael jackson dancing. Ne-Yo’s writing is cool...But it’s not soulfull as R. Ke

- well i like the both of them and trufully if i would had spent my money 4 the concert 2 see both of them, then i would want my money bac. basically they F’ed everybody that wanted 2 see the both of them perform.....so get it 2gether gentlemen!!!!

- R kelly has a problem with every one he goes on tour with. Remember him and Jay Z. Because he has 15 or more years in the game, he should not be so insecure.

- The show is called R Kelly double up tour!..its his show!Featuring the other guest! you want to see neyo go to a neyo concert..why pay for a concert when he is not the main event if thats who you really went to see..dont get me wrong neyo is a good singer and his cd is good I have both of them..but R KELLY is in a class by himself the man is amazing and talented.. so all the people that want their money back they didnt screw you.. you screwed yourself !

- All of you guy’s are talking about what he should’ve and should’nt have done. Dont all of you have something usefull to do and stop talking like your going to win a prize from the nation.
