Could It Be That Ryan Leslie Is 'Just Right'?

ryan_leslie_b&w.jpgFor some inexplicable reason, Ryan Leslie's name keeps falling from the mouths of people in my inner circle. In the past two weeks I have heard praises of his production ability from this young man who graduated from Harvard University at 19-years-old. Ivy league accolades notwithstanding, all that really matters is the music in the end. Blame my soft spot for falsetto-voiced, baby hair-sporting men who rock that look way past its expiration date, but I am actually feeling this song. It's growing on me with each subsequent listen, and I've been humming it around my office to keep me in a good mood. Hopefully, the remix, if there is one, doesn't turn into an Auto-Tuned nightmare of epic proportions. [H/T: OKP]

His entire album is very pleasing to the ears to all that have heard so far

Hey, I think I like it. I'll check it all out. Thanks! :)

Ah...this song has been around for a bit...it is cute though. I don't miind listening to it again.

He's not who I thought he was.

The track is just aiiight. Has the head nod factor for sure. But I am definitely feeling his voice. It pleases me.

On my radar now and I want to hear more. Glad you shared.

He's putting this one out? This leaked ages ago, they added a few synth sounds, but that's about it. I'm a Leslie fan, he's like the new Pharrell than can actually sing. But damn him for bringing Cassy's "music" into the world ....although she sure is purty to look at..
