Choose Nelson
Re-visited a record called “Choose Us” with Bad Boy recording artist Nelson tonite. I had DJ ITL play it at Club Mondial in Holland when I was there, and the response was so crazy - I wanted to vibe out on it and make sure we really sewed it up and made it sound like a Bad Boy classic.
You can hit Nelson up on his MySpace page - add him as a friend…and stay tuned for his album.

This track is nice, props to Nelson and Diddy for choosing Ryan to make this song so much more. I always have something from nextselection in rotation. When I first heard you on PJ Butta I was like whoa, this dude is for real. After listening to Lay You Down, Please Please Please, My Woman, Just Right, Kiss Me, and Used 2 Be I said to myself I can’t believe he hasn’t released in the US. For those of you who haven’t heard a Ryan Leslie track, I feel for you. Did you write this song too ryan? Man I have to admit that Usher was right, you the truth man. The industry do need you in the game. I would have never thought that an “ivy leaguer” such as yourself would have so much street savie. There’s very few supaproducas, but you definitely are one of them.

R. Les the track is crazy and nelson’s voice goes great with it. You doin your thang man keep it up. I think Diddy has a nice R&B act on his hands. So Ryan when that album dropping? I think you gone make a lot of producers and artist step their game up. Good Music.
Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006 at 12:56 pm
Ryan…..you never cease to amaze me your artistry is classic. I agree with David “You are going to make ALOT of producers and artist STEP UP”!
NS4 all day!

*I love this song and I didn’t even hear the whole thing. It had me singing over here. I couldn’t listen to it enough. It makes me want to run out and session with my boys. My friends and I love to make music and I just want to tell you that your the biznazz!! Keep it up… and don’t hesitate to let us (myspace people) know when all the tracks come out. Nelson’s voice is bananas!! When does the single come out?? When does anyone from Next Selection release an album especially in Ga?? You guys need to come and promote down here. Visions…Fa Real.

I heard the final version of this track, any reason why you took the pads out and replaced them with string hits? The version in the video sounds better. I also liked you intro verse.
