Earlier this week, BET aired their BET Honors awards ceremony. Speaking about Usher after he was presented with the BET Honors Musical Arts Award, Ne-Yo said the following:

“I feel that without Usher, there would be no me, there would be no Chris Brown, there would be no Trey Songz. He paved the way for us, so for him to get that honor was kind of special for me. I feel that he actually deserved it.”

It’s dope to see that these guys can pay homage and uplift each other, rather than beef and be in competition! He added:

“Usher getting honored was kind of dope for me because a lot of people kind of want us as R&B males to be at each other’s throats. I don’t know why that is. They want this competition between us, but I don’t feel any competition towards Usher.” Salute!
