Ryan Leslie's Dis Track Is A Winner
Somehow dis tracks translate so much better when placed in the context of smooth yet catchy R&B grooves. Think how much nicer Portrait's "Here We Go Again" went over compared to RUN-DMC's "You Talk Too Much." Despite some people's disdain for my love of certain of Ryan Leslie's tracks, I have to say that next to "Diamond Girl," his new track "You're Not My Girl" is steadily gaining new ground for his track that I have played the most. Is he really telling a girl that they can be friends but "remember...you're not my girl"? Yes, he is. Plus, there's a lot of sonic elements present on this track, some disco, some Pop, and some R&B. Very Summer-worthy.

Not my fav by him, but I like it. His first album is currently in heavy rotation with me. I'm surprised it didn't do very well.

BUT hell if I don't like Ryan, he makes some nice songs, this is no exception. Why did he waist time with Cassie again? We should have got his album first .
