Can't No One Make It Rain Like R.Lez

Watch how R.Lez performs as Rutgers College despite the rain. Now this is the kind of making it rain that should be promoted in the hip-hop industry. He goes in hard no matter what, no need to sing rain rain go away when R.Lez is here

Glad Me and R. Lez Are on Same Page.

Ryan Leslie has just released his newest video for I-R-I-N-A, which is quite awesome considering that this was one of my favorite songs from the album.

Album Review


After listening to the albums the review is in: But one important detail both artist produced their entire albums O_O
Ryan Leslie's "Ryan Leslie"
When it comes to this album my expectations were very high considering the his level of intelligence and production history. I'm not going to lie I was a tad bit thrown off about the overall album. It's like a pure R & B serenade album, not club hits like the singles that were released. The production was defiantly the best part and was near but perfection , but singing wasn't as great. I think it's that his singing is a mixture of poetry, singing and rapping (he raps pretty well on album too). But I have to say I really liked the album it just went to a direction where I wasn't expecting it to go, which I guess is good. Overall the album is like fine whine gets better over time. So go buy it if you can, you won't be disappointed just give it a couple listen.
Favorite Songs: (Order shows up in Album)
Diamond Girl
Addition
How it was Supposed to Be
I-R-N-A
Out the Blue
Favorite Production = Gibberish


The Dream's "Love Vs. Money"
Well for The Dream I already had a basis of what to expect, because of his previous album "Love Hate". It basically follows the same format as the other, mixing in some club singles along with some emotional songs. He has made it clear that he loves sex and is quite talented at making love. I really like the album it flowed pretty well and The-Dream's voice is quite soothing and smooth and his lyrics are pretty good too. The-Dream is like the complete package except he doesn't dance (but eh Chris has that on lock) If you've heard of The-Dream before you'll know whether you like him or not, but how can you not like such a great artist. I defiantly think it's worth purchasing or downloading the album. Add some spice to your bedroom and Zune's
Favorite Songs: (Order they show up in Album)

Ryan Leslie a.k.a R. LEZ


It's been along time since I posted the artist in the spotlight, so I'm back again with Ryan Leslie who i like to call the smartest Hip-Hop Artist Ever. This name doesn't come from his mastermind work on the keys or his work bringing the gorgeous Cassie to fame, but because in his Junior year he got a perfect 1600 (no writing portion), and graduated from Harvard at age 19 (turning down Yale). But upon graduation he saw his calling to the arts and decided he would follow his dreams. As expected he succeeded helping make Me & u a number one smash hit (which he wrote, produced, and recorded in his living room!) I'll boost more about him certifing his greatness by telling you he has produced for Beyoncé, Britney Spears, Cassie, JoJo, Danity Kane, Diddy, Snoop Dogg, and LL Cool J. Now that I made it clear the man know what he doing, I'll let you on a little secret, unlike most modern day producers (Just Blaze, Kanye West, Timberland Heatmakerz and many More) Ryan Leslie knows plays the real instruments, rather than using beat machine. ALL IN ALL THE MAN IS A GENIOUS IN HIS OWN RIGHT BECAUSE IF SOME TRAGEDY HAPPENS AND HIS RECORD LABEL (NEXTSELCTION) FAILS, HE STILL HAS A HARVARD DEGREE IN GOVERNMENT AND ECONOMICS. AND SOMETHING TELLS ME IT WON'T BE TO HARD FOR HIM TO FIND A JOB!!!!!!

But What You need to do is watch this man in the studio
