Ryan Leslie - "Beautiful Lie" In-Studio

Yoooo!!!

I wanted to give you an update on the new album and say thank you for everything that you've done so far to support me and my dedication to sharing my art with the world. I'm currently ramping up to release LES IS MORE as the World's first visual album. The visual content will be released between now and next summer and include an intimate look into the studio session of each record. Thanks to you, these studio sessions have been the foundation for over 43 million views on YouTube already.

Wow. In addition to the studio sessions, this visual album will also include high level documentary style music videos that give you a window into the places, lifestyle and dreams that have inspired each song. I've decided that this year I am going full speed ahead on creating the best art I can create. Even though I will still be producing for other people, my commitment to making music and videos for you is my #1 priority. I want to give you something you will be excited to share with friends, family, and everyone - so one day soon we will be 1MM people strong on Facebook and Twitter and show the world that hard work, loving fans, and real creativity and music are valuable to us and valuable to culture!

 The first installment is this video of the studio session for "Beautiful Lie" which I posted on facebook and already has 2800 likes.

So...go click, watch, share - and let everyone know we're coming for the belt!!!!

Yours always, Ry
