What's wrong with Neyo? He's a little generic sometimes but he writes great hits.
Though I do agree, black male pop acts are pretty much nonexistent right now aside from Jason Derulo. Ne-yo, Chris Brown and Taio Cruz all on hiatus, and those are basically the main sellers. Hopefully 2014 will see a rise in black artists back at the top of the charts again.
