It's a busy time of the year for rapper Ne-Yo. Currently working on his fifth studio album, Love and Passion, Ne-Yo, 31, was recently added to the list of performers for the "Michael Jackson Forever: Tribute" Concert, which will happen in the U.K. on October 8 and will also feature Leona Lewis and a newly-pregnant Beyonce. This week, the perennially dapper rapper, often seen in three-piece suits and fancy headgear, will launch his own line of hats called Francis Alargo. “We’re going to debut it at Fashion Week [at] Saks Fifth Avenue,” he told The Boombox.

Ne-Yo's not saying much about the line before its debut, nor is he commenting on the recent legal drama surrounding his and Pitbull's hit collaboration, "Give Me Everything." Actress Lindsay Lohan recently filed a lawsuit against Pitbull for including her name in the lyrics without her permission. "She's not suing me and I haven't had a chance to speak with Pit about that so I'm not even going to comment," Ne-Yo said. "I'ma leave that alone."
