The ACTUAL smart and talented black people never get any air time.
The actual smart people find the other smart people regardless
For those who are throwing shade...you don't understand what he is doing. He is data mining..which the same thing google and facebook does. Having direct access to your customer base is priceless. Why do you think FB and phone apps ask for access to your contacts and browser??? So they can mine that data, and find out what their customers like and sell them stuff. Dude is way ahead of the game!!
This sounds more like annoying telemarketers.
Frank X Telemarketing sells products the manufactures offer. Data mining sells you products based off your lifestyle. If you like video games, listen to Drake, and like basketball. You will get products that support your liking. Things you didn't even know you had access to.
You absolutely got it ....
exactly
your comment deserves more likes! Indeed he's way ahead of the game!
The most talented artist and musicians never get the shine they are suppose to. This guy is extremely talented but is overlooked because his personal life and persona isn't headline worthy. But he has managed to monopolize on his past work and create a foundation, financially for his artistry. These types of artist are becoming less and less because the public doesn't feel the need to support them and everyone wonders why the music on the radio all sounds the same.
Thank you sir for saying that.
I've been preaching what you stated for 7 years, bro.
Well said Perry Daeziouh.
I take it you're in the game yourself?
***** I know people in the game. I am a painter, photographer, producer and designer. It's been a long road for me, but I know my day will come. Doing the leg work till my dream is realized.
***** Thanks so much. I hope you are having a blessed day. My art is one of my gifts I can give back to the world.
Perfectly said my man!
PERRY DAEZIOUH yep
People didn't appreciate this interview... That's crazy!!! This was 100% insightful, 100% valid, but like he said it only sticks with a few. This was a great breakdown and clear concise steps as to what can be done to monetize your Art and own it. In the age of technology it is one's personal choice to be ignorant. Bless the hard workers.
Ryan Leslie is a genius marketer.
I'ma buy his CD just because of this interview... $10-$20 for the game he just gave everyone is worth it. Thanks for this interview.
The music industry is structured in such a crazy way that you can sign a major record deal with a major label, but end up broke at the end of the road.
Ryan is a genius. Much respect!
"IT IS NOT A GAME!" that's a grown up talking
Him and Fabolous should do a best of both worlds cause them two make hits all the time
that would be epiccccc
kimasilv That'd be the day!
R Les and Cassie are a dynamic duo. They need to work together again. Neither one of them can probably put their prides and hurt feelings to the side though. It's so unfortunate. She's never been able to make the type of music she made with him with anyone else.
Cassie's music is trash with or without R. Les....
+Jaasmin Foote Cassie cant sing and has been trash from day 1. R Les put her on for one reason only. He's trash himself he needs to get back to R&B
I am laughing at this shit.
Ebro needs to shut up. Ryan is dropping jewels and he's here making jokes.
PUBLISHING 101...all these youtube artists tryna make it big. PAY ATTENTION. MONEY IS NOT IN Singing/Rhyming on records. the REAL money is in publishing, residuals and CONTROLLED distribution/data mining. And multiple streams of income. I love that Ryan is trying to smarten up some of these "old heads" too. The face forward parts of the entertainment industry is so off...He's telling yall that there are ways to GET the money you deserve and where talent counts...and honestly its not always on the stage - sadly it usually isn't.
Look how focused that women is in there. She is digesting and storing everyword. Hot 97 probably not paying that much.
I see the thirst...and it is real......
Interrupting someone who is spreading amazing knowledge-just to listen to your own voice-is what makes a bad DJ/interviewer/host. Ebro is embarrassing.
For those who don't know this man went to harvard so he aint playing no games with his money.
All him going to Harvard means is he went to Harvard. Universities are business. Nothing more. Don't get caught up in the matrix that society sells you on. Lots of idiots with advanced degrees. Some run the country. PAY attention!
Carlyle's Picks
So true
yea he went at age 15 before he was famous & graduated at 19
Carlyle's Picks he graduated at the age of 17
it's said in the interview that he graduated at 19
I don't be listening to his music, people be commenting on his weak fanbase. Here is difference between black people and other races. Ryan is like your own Jewish nigga he got the knowledge. He be showing you how to be making money for self monetising what you produce. White people would be still taking seminars from the this guy even if they don't like his music or the venture. black people be cussing him while working for other people saying he ain't hot. learn and build.
Bingo
rosedalepark78 Si..haha
fukin amen... before our people support our people they cussing first or hating in some way. Mans skooling people on how to do things a different way and people are talking bout fanbase sizes lol da guys still caked so i dont see any cussing points been valid. Listen, learn and appreciate genius.
+Tan gunz Jewish nigga LMAO
It's a Slave Mentality that Black people as a whole need to UNDERSTAND KNOWLEDGE OF SELF to rid of such things. We have been done by the Willie Lynch Syndrome generations ago not to trust one another or learn from anyone that looks like us. It's always Trust what a White man says. Don't believe me though, Look at Dame Dash... They judge him all because of his "Looks" when reality he could be 10X times richer than their Family Tree.. They just go off media and how he comes across when speaking about being "Your Own Boss"... All Black people who worked a 9-5 under a white man had bad things to say about Dame. Yet all the TRUE Hustlers of any RACE period would soak in what he's saying. He's speaking just like the Italians on what's theirs and who gets leftovers after.
One of the Dopest producers around! Underrated.
Dope interview.... I like the fact he doesn't mind putting in the work
I have to say that this was one of the most beneificial interviews Hot 97 has done in recent memory. . .
They clearly got paid to hate and try to bash this new innovation. That's like petrol companies paying their sales team to bash a free energy company. The sales reps are stupid enough to get paid to make free energy look bad, when its gonna save them money and time.
A. Rashad and STILL the most beneficial... ever
Final point is, this guy is so talented and blessed. Harvard, insane business mind and ofcourse is unreal music talent.
And I believe he works hard
I found this link from another video i watched, I didnt plan on watching it but, I am soooo soooo soooo very glad I did. This is something I have been discussing while I do free financial planning for "artists" and people in the inner city that are struggling. So many people look at famous artists as role models as if they are making a lot of money but most of them don't know how to build wealth and only know how to make and spend money. I have bought concert tickets for Ryan Leslie but I want to support even more now.... SOOOOO DOPE!!!
Meritocracy , y'all weren't even ready for that .
Cassie should've stayed under his wing. Now she gettin' paid to be passed around.
Dog, she's diddy's gf, she dont want for nothing
Marc Regal little do you know she was ryan leslie girl first before she hooked up for diddy.
+Marc Regal she left R Les for Diddy and we ALL know what Diddy does to his artists. Shes not talented so she fucked up big time
Both are of yall are insane, Cassie dont want for ish. She living wit a half a billy nigga. Think about that. I doubt she care if she put out music at all
+lRattrap passed around like a blunt....lol
A man as smart and talented as he is should have known to back up his laptop! lol
musician though...dude is split brained...he's got backup files on his album buyers though
Think about when it was done
What a brilliant man
I just came to say this: Ryan is VERY underrated and a musical mastermind. From the visuals, to the production, to the song writing. Much respect to him.
At the start of this interview, I was like - this is kind of the first time that I see RL on a 'commercial' platform and second guessing why he would do this... but essentially, if you do the maths, even if 50% of the 116492 people that's seen this video thus far, put his number in their phone book, and that probably 20% of those that gave his business a call, and probably 10% of those he's actually going to work with... that's 1165 people signed to his new service (thumb suck)... tell me that doesn't make business sense.
Gotta hand it to RL, I love his work ethic and his take on the industry. No longer do you have to comply to the system. Rather be smart (i.e. get an education/inform yourself), and create your own system that you can make a living from.
Ebro: The game for you... Ryan: Yea, but its not a game. LMFAO!!!!!
i learned more in this interview than i do in class
Not a big fan of his music...but Dude is playing chess, while the rest of these artist are playing checkers!!!
Dayyyuuuummmmmmmmnnnnnn
Ryan Leslie is an absolute monster genius when it comes to music, and probably the most underrated producer in the game. Out of all the producers to jump in the game, he's the one I respect the most, and also the one I wanna work with the most.
Love this Guy! Ryan Leslie is a beast!
This really was a damn good interview.
Best interview...he is the role model black kids to see
You're my diamond girl!!
This was BY FAR the best interview that I've EVER seen in the history of radio interviews!!! Ryan Leslie is honestly one of the dopest ever, seriously cannot wait to finish stacking up, so I can invest more in me & invest into him, I need one of those consultations. LOL
Priceless information.....
First time seeing the is interview I was looking at dude funny... as the years passed and I matured and began to really do the knowledge "this dude really has the blueprints for success not only for music 🔮👀
JEWELS DROPPED
RYAN LESLIE is the UNDERRATED GOAT. Multi talented as fuck. Wish I was him man. Independent getting dough than lots of rappers out, his worldwide fame is absolutely crazy bruh. We need more artist to use his beats, cause they get bread. Look at Cassie, then Fabolous "You Be Killin Em'', Start It Up- Lloyd Banks. Waiting for this interview a long time ago, Go check out Swiss Francs, Maybachs and Diamonds, Glory, Lay Down
Ryan systems basically provides you with a mobile app, a website and an online store to sell products and services. It also provides you with all the data analysis information through the mobile app and I guess a website too. It also provides you with telephony services like an number your fans can contact you by voice or text. So you can respond to your fans through a message inbox provide by the service. It's quite a few RUclips based musicians that have used Ryan's system and it's works. I think at one time he was charging like $45 a month for it but it maybe at a different price than that now.
It's nothing really new though especially for people that are use to making a living off the internet. People have seen people do crowdsourcing music projects on Kickstarter and Indiegogo. You have many merchandise platforms that help you sell T-Shirts and other merchandise like TopSpin and SpreadShirt. I guess Ryan provides some consultant services that give you some ideas on what you can do to make money.
One thing I will disagree with Ryan on though, it's not enough to have a fanbase but a fanbase that's willing to pay for something from you.
Whether is new or not he's reintroducing a way for artist to profit from their work. People who bring innovation and new ways of thinking to the marketplace should be commended not criticized.
Poor Ryan. Most of what he was saying went over their heads. Their eyes were glazed over as soon as he said "simple math" and "meritocracy". Ebro doesn't seem to get that yes it's work but there is hard work and smart work. Smart work pays off consistently in the long run. If you don't want to put the work into the investment of yourself tough nubs.
this was educative as it can ever be!!
This guy is smart...
This why I love the homie Ryan Leslie. The GENIUS lives to PROSPER.
The most underrated Rapper ever.
I want him to get back to singing.... only! in my humble opinion!
1977rainDUB lol i think everybody agrees
Re-watched now, and it is still GREAT!!
A HARVARD graduate talking to a bunch of 9th grade drop outs🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️😒🙄
One Of The BEST interviews!!!
Ryan Leslie was a prototype Drake.
They not on the same level
Never...
This is the greatest interview I've ever heard or seen n my life! Extremely important info and knowledge was passed here. I've been an R. Les fan since he produced Hot Tonight for New Edition
Definitely one of my favorite Artist, I've bought all of his Albums.
Not having a chorus in your songs doesn't mean it doesn't work for the "system" but rather it's just a different song structure
This is what you called online marketing.. I likeeeeeee...
Open up and take in the GOOD information from this.. Les is basically saying the game is fucked so he came up with a new approach. He circumvented all of it and created a business model that gave his ability leverage!
There's a reason why this man came from a humble background and graduated from Harvard at 18. Also, I love that Rolex Daydate.
Ryan is probably the smartest artist/business man of our time. The dude created his own lane and "Owns" his fan base.
Ryan Leslie a Beast...and I want that Lloyd BANKS plaque in the background.
That's how you make an interview work for you.
What people call INDEPENDENT is no record deal. True independence comes from FAN BASE. 🔥🔥🔥
Going to Harvard doesn't make you smart.. You make you smart.
Realtalk MyBrother You’re right going to Harvard doesn’t make you smart but the bottom line is you can’t get into Harvard without being smart
Calbo boo half of ivy’s are legacy students lmao
Calbo boo Ryan Leslie is smart af, but that’s not true at all haha
Ryan Leslie is a brilliant business professional, creator and artist.
The best basketball players ain't in the NBA bro.
Andy Azael yeah they are lmao
One of the best most informative interviews I've seen in a while.
Leslie comes off sleazy. But sleaze bags are usually very smart. And this guy is very smart. He's formulated a way to keep his hands in his fans' pockets with them having a smile on their faces
Coming back to this, Ryan was steadily trying to educate yrs ago 🔥
All the visionaries and founders watched this video twice and took notes. And im not an artist
17:35 Ebro clearly got paid to make this sound like a "scheme".
He could single handedly destroy the abusive record industry.
They tried to make him look bad, but they just gave his idea more promo lol
One of the best producers!! Hands down!
that laugh at 20:12 is soooo golden LOL
i need to sample that make a beat lol
Then you wil have to pay him. Go for it!
haaa haaaaaa
Ryan#!!!! Been rocking your songs all week. Thanks from one musician to the other. I sent 3 songs to my business partners. He said. Damn where the hell have I been...lol. Looking forward some new music. Stay safe you make people happy.
Drake before Drake
This is by far the best video/interview I've seen from Hot97. I would love to see more of this.
Everything he has said 3 years ago is pretty much the way to go now.
DAMN mind blown at what this guy is doing.
Ryan Leslie looks and sounds like a rapper cause his looks, glasses and the way produced demo songs 🎵, he reminds me of the rapper Swizz Beatz
Best interview I've seen in a while. Wow!
I'm french and I love how americans talk about money very easily, this is a big taboo here. Love that point of view !
Reason why more money is made in America 🔥
Ryan Les, much respect. I can’t believe the program director of 97, decided to keep these clowns 🤡 around who interviewed you, with the nerve to try an, insult your intelligence and down play your professionalism. Aka (E way too old to be talking like a child Bro) #NextGenDj #RESPECT THE ARTIST #WHATDIDYOUCREATE
Best 97 interview
So many jewels in this interview I'm a have to comeback to this video from time to time.
Math.
It all comes down to WORK!!! You get what you put in. So true....
Laura is such a proper female. Keeps her mouth shut and doesn't say a word..
Oh my god, this is the first time I've watched a hip hop radio show recording and have actually been stimulated by their conversation... Bravo guys!
He went independent
Didn't want the gayship that's why he's underrated
Him and fab are the only ones that listen too
He’s freaking smart and loves what he does.
Dude got it before anyone else. Data. That's where it's at.
This man is talking so much current day truth, and it's relevant to every business and brand today.
R.les is the truth. I got both indie albums and just seen him perform in inglewood over the summer. One of the only shows I've been to where ppl knew the songs and sang along....and he's not even on the radio. Big up Mozart
Ryan Leslie is a RICH GENIUS. He's making more money than your favorite rapper & r&b artist.
I hate when ppl bitch about touch wiz being complicated. On a more important note, this interview has blown my mind.
One of my favorite artist ever! His albums are better than most mainstream artists
Excellent and very well done my Sister. Mya is one of my favorite artist and you've represented her extremely well. Thank you very much!!
PRICELESS!!! Eye am 54 years of age~Trained Musician~Trained Pastry Chef~Flat Broke due to paranoia about independence and having complete control of my intellectual property and ventures~Have turned down sponsorship offers~Have made numerous detrimental financial decisions~Have Lived in a 1 bedroom apartment for over a decade~My take away from this video is that even Eye have the ability to reverse my economic status by simply engaging with the people who support me and doing so in a consistent, strategic manner using the resources currently available to me. Eye had really become disillusioned with the music and food industries which Eye felt held conformity as an initial mandate for entry. Ryan is showing me that there are legitimate ways to make your product(s) and/or works available to the public on your own terms. Eye already felt in 2009 when he dropped "Your Not My Girl," that he was extremely underrated as an artist. Now Eye feel he is a beacon of Light to all of us who are creatives and wish to maximize our potential. Thanks to you, Ryan for doing what you do and thanks to HOT 97 for this enlightening interview/mini seminar. If you paid attention, you noticed that this interview introduced concepts that can be utilized in various business scenarios not exclusive to music. FACTS!!!
I'm an indie artist so I come to these interviews for knowledge, wisdom, and useful industry information...more often than not I find gossip and drama. This was a very useful video though and Ryan Leslie gained a fan here
ryan leslie.... showing how to make intelligence cool. God bless that brother.
One of the most talented artist in music, doesn't get the respect that he should, day 1 fan.
All this talk about music business when the fact and the matter is that 98% of music today is garbage. I listen to 70's 80's 90's and early 2000.
