Ne-Yo Signed Up Universal Motown Deal With Jadyn Maria

Grammy Award winning R&B singer Ne-Yo is in the media spotlight nowadays for signing up a deal for his new protégé Jadyn Maria at Universal Motown Records.

As reported previously, Maria will push the infectious pulsing electronic single “Good Girls Like Bad Boys,” featuring Flo-Rida.

Maria, native of Puerto Rico met Ne-Yo’s partner Tango and began recording in Atlanta before signing to compound. Shortly after she did her first couple of songs, she received a call: “Hi Jadyn, this is Ne-Yo. I just wanted to let you know I heard the songs you just recorded and I would like to sign you as an artist.”

Regarding Maria Ne-Yo says: “A sweet tone, a gorgeous smile, a bubbly yet strong persona—not to mention a rather strong pen game—made Jadyn Maria just what I was looking for. It’s these attributes that will also make her a name you will remember.”

“I am thrilled to team up with Ne-Yo, his manager Tango, and Compound Entertainment to introduce Jadyn Maria,” adds Universal Motown President Sylvia Rhone.

Jadyn Maria’s upcoming album is reportedly featuring some of today’s R&B and pop music heavy-hitters, including Ne-Yo, Katy Perry, and Travis McCoy from Gym Class Heroes, to name a few.
