After only two shows, Ne-Yo has launched a lawsuit against R. Kelly’s concert promotion company Rowe Entertainment after the Chicago R&B star booted him off his current tour

Ne-Yo claims he was kicked off due to reviews and crowd reaction being more favorable for him than R. Kelly. That wouldn’t be surprising giving the popularity of Ne-Yo’s songs lately.

“I am disappointed that I won’t be able to perform for my fans,” Ne-Yo said in a statement. “I love being onstage 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.”

Ne-Yo is suing R. Kelly for $785,000 for the promised 25 show openings.
