During the engaging conversation on Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, Ne-Yo, and Tyson delved into the topic of fan appreciation. Ne-Yo openly admitted, “I get more love outside of America than I do in America.” To which Tyson responded, “Because they don’t see you everyday like we do, we take you for granted.”

Ne-Yo expressed his admiration for international fans who prioritize music over the personal lives of celebrities. He further reflected on the difference in fan culture. He explained, “Over there, they don’t so much strip off the media stuff and who you’re dating and all that. They love the song, they love the music, they wanna come to hear their favorite song. They don’t care who you’re f***ing, they don’t care about nothing.”

This focus on personal matters can sometimes overshadow the music itself.
