Steve Briggins no no I know, but I mean mainstream success. Sure he probably doesn't care because he's making money regardless if its in the public eye. But I really did like his music and artistry and he kinda fell from the scene of making his own music and not just song writing. After I saw the making of the song "Addiction" and how much musical genius the man had I was pretty excited to hear more from him, but he hasn't made music in a few years I believe
+Ty Douglas R Les created his own sound. I see a certain higher value in the music he creates. His music is true genius and aint that commercial crap, and that's why he didn't blow up. It's only intended for the real music listeners not the pop market.
@shawndon7374 I was about to say the same thing cause I was in middle school around that time and my friends and I had this on MySpace. That's how old this song is lol
I don't know about If she would have gotten bigger in this industry. But I know she would never got ran through it the way The way that she did she did if she would have stayed with Ryan. Or just never chose puffy at all.
I'm definitely feeling you on that comment.As a musician,the 90s rnb was so beautifully composed from the vocal arrangement with the rnb groups and music in general.This was cool,but you can't compare this to the 90s still.
Y'all don't know but this nigga has mad talent. Look it up. He plays instruments makes all his own beats writes all his own music has good education and he can sing and rap. And that's probably not all
This sound will be missed, I was about 8 or 9, I'm glad to have grown up in this era, the mid-late 2000s were my early school years and an experimental edgy time. 🤙🏽
Imagine if tik tok was released during his time he would have blown differently. However with his natural entrepernerial skills he had smashed the game but behind the scenes! Which for one makes me respect him and his achievement much more than some rappers etc
Ryan leslie should have been one of the biggest producers in the game. He plays every instrument, sings and do beats. Wtf !!! Only kanye can nearly do all that
Who is listening? 04 May 2024

Who else still bumpin to this masterpiece in 2024?
And I just remembered it so randomly like heyyyy what’s that song again? 😂😂😂
Cassie voice sounded so much better alongside Ryan’s productions. His tracks brought her smoothness to the forefront
I swear I only want a second album from her if it's just him & her... They were clearly in love.. ❤
Yes,absolutely
@@KeyWatsShe has a second album Rock A Bye Baby and it’s a classic no skips
@@ashantej7484 That was only a MIXTAPE.. 😆 🤣
If she'd stayed under his guidance, she'd be the star she wanted. But Diddy was just too huge to resist.
Who’s banging this in 2020?
Still here 2020
Timeless production.
All En Da Family: 7/4/20; I'm on this!! And...this is NOT the first time for this year that I'm jammin' 2 dis!!. . .8/21/21✔✔✔Still....A BANGER👏👏👏.
in 2020 yeah
Me
I'm actually pretty annoyed Ryan Leslie never blew up like he should have, he's really talented
He's a producer and song writer him , Neyo and Keri hilson been relevant way before they blew up with their own hit singles
Steve Briggins no no I know, but I mean mainstream success. Sure he probably doesn't care because he's making money regardless if its in the public eye. But I really did like his music and artistry and he kinda fell from the scene of making his own music and not just song writing. After I saw the making of the song "Addiction" and how much musical genius the man had I was pretty excited to hear more from him, but he hasn't made music in a few years I believe
Ikr. It really bothers me that he didn't blow up. He is so talented and i loved his music.
+Ty Douglas R Les created his own sound. I see a certain higher value in the music he creates. His music is true genius and aint that commercial crap, and that's why he didn't blow up. It's only intended for the real music listeners not the pop market.
I agree
Who's still bumping this in 2019? 🙋🏾♀️
2020 then
*2021*
*We made it, everyone!!* *Happy 2022*
*WELCOME 2023*
Mua
I 😜
😉
I am now! I clean on forgotten about this song and Ryan Leslie! 🙌
All day son!
This song is almost 13 years old and still sounds brand new 🔥
Beat is ahead of its time
Real Talk 🔥🔥🔥🤞🏽
This song is from 07 so it's old enough to throw it's own sweet 16. Dang time really does fly.
Wonder why, probably something to do with mr combs! 🙄
@shawndon7374 I was about to say the same thing cause I was in middle school around that time and my friends and I had this on MySpace. That's how old this song is lol
I won’t lie. This was my ring tone on the blackberry.
Meee toooo.
Diddy will pay for his crimes!! He’s the reason Ryan never blew up
I totally agree.
Couldnt agree more
For real? What's the scoop?🤔
He is good but not made for clubs. There, this is why he didn't blow up. Not some stupid conspiracy theory!
Puffy was threatened and blackballed this man into obscurity but karma is making it right now. Ryan is an amazing composer.
So true
Very true. Also remember Ryan and Cassie were together before she left him for the “Bad Boy”!
RYAN LESLIE CREATING THIS BEAT IS ONE OF THE GREATEST VIDEOS IVE EVER SEEN OF AN ARTIST.
Yesss! I've watched that video over and over... A genius at work 🙌🏾
Big facts
Ever point blank period
This song still bangs today. The production on this is crazy.
One of the few producers who could drop gems without sampling
Brandon Yes exceptional. This is real talent and the music industry usually smothers this kind of talent.
This sampled “can’t help it” by Michael Jackson lmao
Agreed!
@@lamaramy4477 : That song was written by the wondrous. . . . .Stevie Wonder.
@@cocoafemme47
Double irony ❤❤
June 2024 anyone?
Yup! Just watch his Forbes interview 😅
Yeeeeesssss🎉
July 2024
Cassie should of never left Ryan Leslie. Their chemistry was perfect. Puff messed that up. She could of been so much bigger without Puff.
So true!!
Everything happens for a reason
PREACH!!!
Yes, She messed up😢
I don't know about If she would have gotten bigger in this industry. But I know she would never got ran through it the way The way that she did she did if she would have stayed with Ryan. Or just never chose puffy at all.
He’s really the person Diddy wants to be & that’s it
I agree
this guy is seriously underrated #dope
I know thats right
He's more of a ghost writer/ producer
He graduated from Harvard
One of the best songs from the golden RnB years!
Marieta Dimitrova the Ryan Leslie is boss my favority songs
Marieta Dimitrova Gold? You must be drunk!
Golden? This wasn't made in the 90s lol
The 00's are the golden era for me personally
I'm definitely feeling you on that comment.As a musician,the 90s rnb was so beautifully composed from the vocal arrangement with the rnb groups and music in general.This was cool,but you can't compare this to the 90s still.
We need this music back ASAP. 2023. Today's r&b sucks
Ryan Leslie, Cassie and Fabolous ... 🎉 .. this is a masterpiece
fire music but they played him cuz he look like a incel 😱
back when blackberry phones was poppin lol
lol
damn!!!
Right 😂😭
Definitely had one!
Mally Umansky ok I had a bright red one and the cranberry red one
Cassies voice on this golden
This man is top 5 most talented artist hip hop has ever had. His music is such a breathe of fresh air
Thats a fact but you know who had a hand in making sure he didn't get as big as he did?? Dirty Diddy
Damn Fab killed that verse
this beat sick
R Les is a beast! I agree with those that say he's underrated! He's an extremely gifted producer and musician!!!
One of the greatest.
Who here after the news of Cassie & Diddy?
This album by Ryan Leslie was 🔥 the whole thing
Ahead of time
Y'all don't know but this nigga has mad talent. Look it up. He plays instruments makes all his own beats writes all his own music has good education and he can sing and rap. And that's probably not all
I haven't heard this in a while. I just heard this song on the radio it's definitely in my playlist now. Ryan is very talented.
This song has been on my playlist for 13 years straight. Ryan is so talent!
Dead ass plus the one where he step by step make this beat 13 years playlist ...
I hope NOW. that they taking diddy dumb ass down that maybe there is a chance is can revive his career. I always loved his sound.
Im still addicted to this song- September 2023🎉🎉🎉
❤🎉2024🎉❤
I missssssss these types of songs omg I wanna cry
i wish cassie was in this video..
She would've been but she was...too .very young looking.....
It is Cassie you are too young to notice they were a cpl at the time
She’s right in ya face lol
Shawn Meade well I’m 29 n that is NOT Cassie in this video at all.
Diddy snatched her up from Ryan around this time that's prolly why she ain't in it
So great to see people listening to this in 2019 🥰🥰🥰
Who’s Hear after the breakfast club interview?
👇🏼
Tow Life me 🤣
he's a genius
ryan leslie is so under rated...dude is on point...
Still Addicted to this song in 2018
Going down the rabbit hole with this Diddy stuff and goddamn 😮😢
2008 = best year
What happened to this type of r&b? This was legit
Dam this a throwback definitely a classic ... Remember when this first came out in 09 still my shit
This Came Out in '08 i was 4 at that time
This sound will be missed, I was about 8 or 9, I'm glad to have grown up in this era, the mid-late 2000s were my early school years and an experimental edgy time. 🤙🏽
2023 and still listening to your stuff.. one of the most underrated artists ever!!
Imagine if tik tok was released during his time he would have blown differently. However with his natural entrepernerial skills he had smashed the game but behind the scenes! Which for one makes me respect him and his achievement much more than some rappers etc
This song could still blow up on TiKToK low key. A lot of old songs do.
It only needs one person to make a video or dance to it and it's 💣 💥
if ppl used it like Kyla water, it would.
Drake before Drake lol
lool
lol
😂😂😂😂
Facts‼
Looool
This song brings me that nostalgic feeling....November 2019 still showing love!
I'm here 10 years later, I love you Ryan Leslie ❤❤🥰🥰🥰
Me too
❤ForeverRrrr L❤ve Ryan❤
13 years later and this song is still the shit ❤
Ryan Leslie and Cassie need to get back in that studio and make more dope songs like this and songs from Cassie's debut album
Arlene Del Bull yesssssssss!!!
That will never happens because Cassie left a. Leslie for puff daddy
She’ll never, he’s the one that exposed her nudes.
Even if they don't play them on the radio, I'll be on UA-cam listening
@@djdeznyc then left Diddy for the trainer
2022!
Ryan leslie should have been one of the biggest producers in the game. He plays every instrument, sings and do beats. Wtf !!! Only kanye can nearly do all that
Not to mention he graduated from Harvard at 19
If ryan leslie never loses that laptop he probably ends up being one of the biggest producers/artist for his decade
I'm mad this song doesn't have more views. it's is incredibly well done. beats lyrics hook everything
Ryan Leslie is a very talented man. Respect to him forever. 🙏🏾 #2019
I wonder if Diddy had something to do with his laptop being missing🤔
I wonder if he’s the reason she ain’t I. The video
@@Powersashaif I remember right, her and Ryan Leslie had actually broken up before shooting the video and it wasn't that agreeable a breakup
Quite possible considering Cassie is/was his artist I can see puff stealing it to prevent further songs and collabs
Still jamming to the whole album 2021!!!!! True talent and good music will never fade!
even jamming it in 2022!! praise
2050 STILL ADDICTED TO THIS SONG
When times were simplier.
10 years later. Still a good track. 12.20.2019
Still here in 2022!
Songs like this expose the industry. He was definitely blackballed and I lost respect for alot people over his situation😢
Diddy did it👁👁He was jealous of his talent and stole Cassie from him
2019 R & B will never be like this , Miss these classic hits
This man made the craziest beat in fucking R&B and hip hop history idgaf. HISTORY
Diddy is evil, keep doing good Ryan
Such a underrated song
Next selection.....This joint is and will always be fire. This guy was so talented
See Cassie the grass wasnt greener with Puff huh???
WHO STILL BUMPIN THIS DURING CORONA 😂😂
The really skinny girl is Jazline from "America's Next Top Model" like 2005! She was one of my faves!
Man i miss this kinda music. Ryan come back. Fab tell him!
Still Here 2021 😩🔥
2023 still a banger
Waiting on the day the Ryan leslie and frank ocean collaborate on something.
that would be dope
+Eduardo Lamount Do we even know where Frank Ocean is..
oh my lord would be iconic
I'm waiting on the day Ryan and Cassie collaborate on something again...
Aloep Ci Banks dead ass
the beat in the beginning got me hype
Donovan Thomas Hypnotized.
facts who does that ?? im addicteddddd to youuuuu
when can you sing, produce and write your own music>
I just remembered this song in July 2022!
Who else is here in 2022?
Damn. Fab always murders every fucking track he hops on.
His word play on addiction is so on point.
Dude is a genius. Like fr fr 💯
This entire album was dope AF..played it from beginning to end
This hook is so awesome… November 2023 and still 🔥
i would gladly take r les for prez right about now
5 years and this shit still thumps! You know that's a classic. Keep doing your thing R Les!
Most underrated music producer
Memories Never Die😭
Nope
2018 and this joint still crank✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
I absolutely love Ryan Leslie's music. He reminds me of a Sammy Davis Jr who is also from Harlem as well.
R Les is jus built different
Ryan is still soooo 🔥 in 2023
Memories😌
I've been looking for this song for like 13 years 😭😭😭 it's been stuck in my head forever. The "I'm addicted to you" song
WOw I miss 2009
After loosing that labtop his music was never the same again.
That was a damn shame
WHOS HERE 2019???
One of my favorites from that time. Still
This songs hits differently…… it’s something about the beat ..
This dude was ahead of his time.
Ryan Leslie walked so John Legend could run 👏👏👏
13 years later im playing his music. if i was ryan i would be on cloud 9 everyday!
Haven't heard this song for 14 YEARS
wish cass was in the video
