Han startede som ren smørtoner udi mainstream r&b, men amerikanske Ne-Yo har både været forbi den forkætrede eurodance og lidt country undervejs i sin karriere. Pop må være den rette beskrivelse for Ne-Yo's musik, og singlen "Coming to you" fra denne sjette skive lyder som et kommende sommerhit med sine smægtende, dansable beats. De hip hop-inspirerede numre er her stadig, og naturligvis ville det her ikke være et Ne-Yo-album uden de følelsesudkrængende sjælere. Efter sigende har Ne-Yo crowd-sourcet det her album ved at spørge sine fans om deres historier om kærlighed og parforhold.

"Non-Fiction (...) contains more standouts than any Ne-Yo album since Because of You. There's some frivolous content, such as the fireside acoustic number "Story Time" and rote EDM squib "Who's Taking You Home." Beyond that, there's a lot of imaginative and high-quality modern R&B, like "She Knows," "She Said I'm Hood Though," and "One More," all tough but finely crafted slow jams".

"With younger, fresher soulmen like Miguel, Frank Ocean and the Weeknd on the scene, Ne-Yo has been left grasping for relevance. In the intro to the deluxe edition of this sprawling album, he confusingly describes Non-Fiction as "complete fiction" about "real characters going through real things." The music, sadly, can be just as tough to follow".
