Ryan Leslie Makes "Addiction"
Yes we were in the studio until 8am doing this one. Everyone was sleeping and the sun was up by the time I finished. It's not a game - this music stuff. I will not stop.

Who’s watching this on 2024?
I like your work
Man I just had a moment outta the blue, and thought of this video. I hall ass too UA-cam to find it !!!!! Classic
Yoh bro I am here
MOI🙋🏻♂️
Me🎉
Who’s watching in 2024? Still 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’m here! Classic gem 💎
here!!!
It’s 2023 now, this would be the best song on the radio today. Play it 30 years from now and it still will be hot! This is timeless music!
FACTS! Unlike the garbage that's currently out
@@SPAlNKY do you make music?
That’s cah Ryan Leslie is a proper musician amazing musician producer songwriter etc stuff out now is absolute shit Bruv
Btw I’m a music producer who used to do hip hop RnB but cah of the shit out nowadays and all the fake entertainment industry I’ve moved over to Uk deep house/garage and 2 step.
Way ahead? He was behind the times. He was an imitation Pharrell, and didn’t even try to hide it.
I saw this video 12 years ago in a digital media class and its the reason I produced.
It's crazy how hypnotizing this is.
This clip will live forever.
So where’s the music you produced?
10 years later and I still haven’t seen any studio footage more impressive than this.
10 years later and that piano intro STILL sounds like magic!
Square Biz...
Look up Masego. Pretty dope too
That's the truth!!!!
Damion Dethrow Look up Tame Impala. They’re actually listenable.
*Walks into guitar center*
Employee: Not this guy again 😒
Me:
Liljonman1212 LMAO this should’ve gotten way more likes 😂
Lol Hahahahahahaha bruh lol
Oh man this is too funny🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
It don't matter how many times I watch this. It amazes me how talented this guy is. He is a everything in one.
Beat makers need to start vibing like this again, the game needs dudes like Ryan Leslie.
This clip is way better than the actual music video
Facts
Still watching in 2023,
Ryan is way underrated. Dude has too much talent.
DreadfulControversy what underrated. With 15000 fan base he made $2mill. That's like 5mill fans on vevo. What a better reward than in green proof.
Trevor Harvard breed
@@wafulamasikaAbbottjesselove over rated...lol...He has skill lot of time practicing and honing his craft...plus he is highly intelligent.
He's a musical genius for creating that beat from scratch.
He chose to go independent and stay away from record labels! He’s the reasons they start taxing a lot of artist
Wouldn't surprise me if Ryan was recording himself too. Mad talented
Otis Tramble lolol
Lol
rofl
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Here in 2023 to remind myself how insane this time was! My RLS playlist is still an instant mood changer to this day. But this video?! ICONIC. Never forget this man also graduated from Harvard at 19! 🙌🏾
A Harvard alumni too? Wow, this man is a Music genius.
This man dominated the game so fast they couldn't even cancel him fast enough to erase his genius. No one compares really nowadays.
People just don’t understand, Ryan Leslie did this BEFORE UA-cam had any kind of monetization!!! And now you got folks with 1% of his talent begging for superchats all day long 😂
When you see an artist THIS animated in the studio, you know magic is being brewed. This honestly will never get old for me. Ryan is a musical genius! So many artists need to take notes from him because his craft is unmatched. Plus his style is insane.
exactly
14 years later and I still come to this clip for motivation! And still 14 years later.. Ryan Leslie is unmatched!
Coming back to this so many years later and I see this man’s light and intelligence! I see how Diddy sabotaged his success, he even stole his vibe. Ryan is pure talent, Cassie’s loss 😂
That part
My thoughts exactly .
facts
Facts. She has has a family with a handsome guy but that guy Is not THIS...
@@blissdad13 her prime years are gone. She hit the wall. She did won her case with the Diddy thing.
It’s amazing that these lyrics were probably considered shallow or basic but now sound almost profound compared to what’s standard these days
That orchestra though, who else got hyped and saw a vision?
Ceneoss Animations bro it have me fucking goosrbumps
lol!
his vision, but diddy had his own blueprints.
Ceneoss me
Gave me the chills
This man is a force. They dont want this man in the industry. He makes great music 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏾
It’s 2024 now, and I remember watching this is 2008!
Clearly the same here in France 🎉🎉
The elements in this production are still top tier to this day.
"They try to put me in a box- - it's impossible!" I've loved that line since I heard diamond girl.
Dude didn't even take his jacket off
He would've been arrested for mass heart attacks when the beat drops
Lol thought I was the only one who noticed that.
Not 1 sweat broken.
or his shades , bruh how tf he see in there?! Id be trying to play the fkn desk
Facts 😂😂
Clearly Diddy blackballed this guy! How else did a talent like this just dissapear
#Facts 💯
Absolutely
he just wanted Cassie.........
*disappear*
Exactly why I left my message
Why is that joint still a banger in 2023 🔥🔥🔥
Agreed!!
FOREVER a timeless classic
Shit this some of the best producing I have seen. 🔥 for sure I never seen this behind the scenes look even though I always loved this song.
Once a banger, always a banger homes…🙏
Dude is MAD underrated!
True talent like this is dieing out. #SaveOurTalent.
I think I've watched this like a million times. It never gets old!
Never!
Brianna Alicia Never!
EVER!!!
same here man watched this in 08 and still watching it..talent
does anybody know the sames of those synthesizor keyboards hes using?
That's why that track sounds so heavy. Real music. And real vocals.
I watched this 100 times when I first started making beats when this first came out 😂

A tip : you can watch series on Flixzone. Been using it for watching loads of movies recently.
This video is the reason I want to become a producer/multi-instrumentalist!
On God same here !
andreg127 hell yea 💯🎼🎶📯🎹🎺🎻🎸
Have you followed that career path?
Update?
Update?
Breakfast Club interview brought me here🤷🏾♀️ This definitely had me swaying and bobbing my head with him.
It makes you appreciate the beat so much more when you see how it’s cooked up from scratch. And he did this so effortlessly. I seen this in 09 when I graduated and this joint still gets me hype everytime
His workflow and energy are crazy.
I watched this years ago, but each and every time I watch it I still get shivers.... Damn
its really that good
Forreal for real
True!
Shivers fr fr!!
This dude is so creative is not eve funny, this is the most impressive live studio session I've ever seen, none of that writing notes in the piano roll with the mouse, straight live recording this is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
14 years later and still haven‘t seen somebody like R-Less.
Such a Genius!
I always search for this video every couple of years. Absolutely phenomenal talent.
THIS GUY IS UNBELIEVABLY TALENTED. And bless who ever captured this moment.. PERIODT.
Watched this so much as a teen, now I am in my 30's... laaawd. Still a huge fan, MY GUY!!!!
People will never feel the emotions in music unless they hear the things Ryan creates .. They just don't understand what music is about this makes my hair raise up
I come back to this every couple months. It’s a beautiful thing.
This is what the music world needs right now. I feel like if he would have dropped this shit today. It would've been crazy
Remains one of the greatest videos ever put on the internet. It always will be.
One of them underrated stars that doesn't care about the clout. Dudes dope.
This never gets old!! CLASSIC!!! 💯
First time I’m ever seeing this. My jaw dropped first riff.
11 years later and this never gets old..Pure Talent
Who’s watching this in 2019??
Polite Mike still remember the first time seeing this
Seeing this after so many years and this shit is gettin me hype!!!!!
i come back for inspiration for keys..
Polite Mike this dude is dope! Always liked this song since it’s came out! My 18 &19 year olds fell in love with when they heard it last week for the first time in my playlist...
I watch this at least once every year since it came out lol
Nigga walk into a club like 3:57

What about "Diamond Girl?" 2018 in the building.
30.11.2018 man and the fire is still hot
He ain’t have no business getting this busy in the studio🔥
It’s always amazing to see a musician in their element this video is still amazing to me in 2023. Also great music is harder to find nowadays.
A whole decade later and this still sounds like the future... Ryan Leslie was born for this
Musical Genius, the industry scared to death of him, more musical Talent than most on this planet
cosign...
+sin gheeta him and Cassie for a while too if I'm not mistaken. The music he puts out now is a lil more rough but it's still dope. Whereas, these songs from the first album are classics
I’ve come
Back to this video every couple years. So dope watching him do this.
This video is so powerful - not specifically for the music he has made (which has impacted so many in its own right) but rather this video exemplifies when someone is fully invested in what they are doing where passion meets expertise and talent and how something, an idea goes from this little thing in his mind to this grandiose expression of art that touched so many people. Also the way he sees his and visualises his dream of having the orchestra play the track out.
When you are in your freedom, in the moment and fully invested and undistracted we mimic God’s power to create and this is where Great things come from.
If you are a creator or dream of doing something don’t let anything take you away from that special place in which you dream and become excited for it. that is your power…
He says at the end “they try to put me in a box… it’s impossible!!” Let that be a mantra for us to do great things
Ryan leslie is very talented! one of my fav producers!!
This song is one of the best songs I’ve heard!!!!!!!! I still don’t know WHY this didn’t blow like it should’ve. Ryan was outta here!!!!!!! THERE WAS NO DOUBT!!!!! Somehow, it didn’t blow like it supposed to. But man!!!! This is a hit RIGHT NOW!!!!!!
Because hella shit was going on... Diddy took his girlfriend, and main vehicle into the game... Cassie.
Trying to help untalented people is what cost him his career
Freakin INSANE!!! Haha... It's actually mindblowing what kind of talent this man has!
I Bump Ryan Leslie's music TO THIS DAY!!! *Deontay Wilder voice*
Im still here in 2024 watching this on my 2008 windows XP Hewlett Packard PC . . .been running up the views for 16 years.
Seriously, Ryan Leslie is a genius. How he hasn't reached Diamond status by now is beyond me. Saw him in concert in London and he shut the sh*t down!!! We just have to keep supporting him.
Spirit of a maverick, ahead of his times for sure! Such a talent!
When your future is so bright you gotta wear your shades at all times...
Who's here from that breakfast club interview?
👇🏼
Yup. Almost forgot about how talented he was. Had to refresh my memory
SAME
That would be me! I love that he's SO SMART!!!
Pure genius 🔥🔥🔥🔥 He’s so underrated 🤦🏾♀️
I sold all my studio equipment when i saw this... the person that bought it gave me a reality check. I have a real job now lol
Who’s watching this is in 2024? *Raises hand* I AM!
No matter how many times I watch this video it never gets old!!!

I come bac to this video at least a few times a year and still get inspired by it like its the first time I've seen it... nobody touching this dudes in-studio joints .. 2019 down; Ill be back next year lord willing 💯
Vids like this make me log in to comment and say bravo. Underappreciated talent. Now where's that old trumpet of mine, I need to dust it off.
This guy is a PURE GENIUS.I still come back to this video for inspiration.................. #DRIOT
Who is watching this still and it’s 2023? Real creativity right here!!
People use the term “generational talent” way too loosely in today’s world. Ryan Leslie is a TRUE generational talent. This video never gets old. The orchestra piece at the end is just… 🤯🤯🤯🤯
From another world!!!
THEY TRY TO PUT ME IN A BOX...ITS IMPOSSSIIBLE!
CLASSIC!!! Can't believe this was 11 years ago...WOW!
I remember it like its yesterday! #legendary I used to watch this vid everyday 14 yrs ago! we are still here on 2023. give him his flowers
The Greatest Gifted Most Talented Instrument player Composer Producer Musical Director an Recording Artist
I don't really know about composer or instrument player, bbut I agree that he's one of the greatest producers of all time.
Nathaniel Smith
What do you mean you don't know about composer he did a run on the keys
Yeeeah, I'm down with the song, but let's not get crazy. I actually feel like his obvious arrogance takes away from it for me - sure, it's a cool song with some interesting layers and counter-melodies, but it's not revolutionary; it's still a stock pop/R&B song. The lyrics are unoriginal and uninteresting, though it's still catchy. But "Black Mozart"? Pffft. Get the fuck outta here.
I like the song, but he's making himself appear way too inauthentic in the process. As someone who worked in the music industry for 15 years, NO ONE dresses and acts this way in the studio. The staging and self-aggrandizing he does makes the whole thing utterly inorganic, such that it makes me want to stop listening in order to check his ego - an interruption to a song I OTHERWISE ENJOYED. All the ego surrounding this production just took me out of a space of enjoyment and into one of scrutiny.
Will I listen to the song again? Probably. Will I buy the record? Probably not - if you have the cockiness to title your record "Black Mozart", I expect to then own something which is revolutionary to modern music, or at least music as I understand it; not a stock pop/R&B record. He's a talented guy, but there are no Mozarts here.
Oh wow fantastic love it Jaqueline thank you for sharing 🌹🌹🌹🌹
pedro martinez Just cause someone hit the keys don't mean he's a composer, and definitely not one of the best of all time. Did you throw all the Renaissance composers out the window?
Still Goosebumps in 2015....
15 years later and I still type this video in my search bar 😫😫😫😫🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Still watching in 2023... He's very talented and so underrated.
Still shaking my head in aww at this creative talent 💯
Ryan was cooking in the studios Sheesh! This is legendary status 💯
This beat is still fire in 2020 !!
I never get tired of seeing the making of this song 😩😍😍😍😍
10 years later, still amazing
So whats ANOTHER 10 years on top of THAT..
LETS GOOO
This man is amazing literally watching this 10 years later in utter amazement at this mans talent!! Cmon he's a genius!!! I still bump this album till this day!! #isaidwhatisaid
I'm addicted to this genius 💯
i'm still playing all his jams to this day!!!
One of my fav producers.
R. Les is dope
