The breakaway hit So Sick, a ballad about a brokenhearted guy who can't stop listening to brokenhearted ballads, delivers a light, genre-spoofing twist, but the other songs soar less on writerly sophistication than on Ne-Yo's deftness with a hook and particularly sincere brand of shamelessness. On It Just Ain't Right, he samples '80s legend DeBarge and confesses to an old girlfriend, "I'll be sexing her and I call your name"--a lyric that could have...
