Ryan Leslie “5 Minute Freshen Up” Video Premiere

Apart from his Harvard degree, Ryan Leslie is most revered for his ability to write good lyrics, compose great music and sing & rap as well. But this very song, which also happens to be the fourth video from his upcoming visual album Les Is More, does not contain any of the above mentioned attributes.

The melody, thankfully, is not that bad but the content is limited to that of cars, money, clothes and what rhymes with the previous. Therefore the 5 minutes, depicted in this video and song, are useless and not worth one’s time.

Ryan Leslie “Good Girl” Video Premiere

Rapper/Singer/Producer Ryan Leslie releases the third video clip of a ten clip series for his upcoming prolonged album Les is More.The album is rumored to drop somewhere in the March-April quarter of next year.

Another carefully engineered product by the self made man. This mid-tempo R&B’ish track depicts the great city of Las Vegas with R-Les rapping a verse or two and then singing the chorus. Another good attempt from the man from Harvard.

Check out his debut video “Glory” and his sophomore number “Beautiful Lie”
