Flex-Factor
Funkmaster Flex is one of the foremost tastemakers in radio today, and last night was my first time speaking to him via phone from the road in New York City…Cassie was at Hot 97 and, encouraged by Sean Collins, who runs NextSelection management, I called in to the station. Minutes later, my brief conversation with Flex was broadcast to NYC and this clip captures me listening:

Hey Ryan,
Thanks for posting this video. It shows how dedicated you are to your artists. Alot of times you have producers who aren’t there for the artist but more so for themselves. I’m sure you made cassie feel more comfortable that day. Keep up the good work. Peace & blessings to you. NS4life.

“4 D’s is what it takes to make it in the music industry”…Got it posted on my wall too so when I wake up everymorning or go to sleep everynight its on my mind and in my heart. Its gonna happen cause I possess them! I have watched you on this myspace thing before I even knew who Cassie was. When you spoke about music or your music it was the confidence (something I’ll never forget) Your blog captured you making music( hottest beats), making business, and most importantly making upcoming songwriters and artist such as myself realize the grind! I’m gonna keep workin and someday you will know who I am too! *wink*

Hey Ryan.. Giving a big shout out to you and all of Next Selection Crew.. All great talented people, just checked out your new videos in you tube and i’m really loving your new song “Rescue U” i can really see your body and soul feeling and being in sync with the music.. a true talented singer and a great inspiration to behold..
I’m from a country in South East Asia called Brunei Darussalam. At the moment i’m organizing with my contacts on and about stadium performances in Asia region itself and with promotions and marketing with radio stations and clubs.. I’ve contacts from Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, Hong Kong, China and Taiwan at the moment.. i’m still doing my planning and coordinating with them individually to get only the ones with the best experience into this.. I would like to propose to you in representing you and next selection music artists out in asia and helping to organize concerts for an asian tour, if you have not already established any contacts in asia as of the moment.. I would love to hear from you and at this moment i would love to share more but i think it’s best to have our conversation in a more private setting.. If you have any questions on my experiences do let me know =)
Keep up with the great and positive vibe in music
