its hella weird how i was just think about how its almost a year or so since the first video on here. but yea its nice to see cassie and nextselection coming up, maybe there is hope for hip hop/r&b music after all, ya kno?
[i have to do it man lol]
im tryin to put together a remix album of random remixes ive done and let some ppl hear it, just so i have a clue of where im at right now, im 17, out of high school and turning 18 next month, and im tryin to go to college for recording technology and equipment and music classes and things like that. i really want to hone my craft and become the best and change hip hip and rnb….and music in general for that matter…so i kno what youre talkin about when you say you want ppl who really have that determination and drive and dedication. so if you would like to give me my first industry evaluation, i have a couple of recent remixes on my myspace page [ www.myspace.com/zaneproductions ]
i kno that you have a new york based talent pool, but if youre interested in taking me on and going further with this, im willing to relocate in order to better myself and help you bring nextselection to the forefront of mainstream music across the globe.
thank you for taking the time to hear me out and once again my myspace page is [ www.myspace.com/zaneproductions ]
thank you again and god bless

I was listening to the video and congrats to cassie for making it so far and stil has much potential to reach, im behind her as much as possible and ryan you are a great producer and friend of cassie, loads of respect to you, you have a good influence on her and so does diddy, i cant wait to see what comes along in the future.
Sunday, November 12th, 2006 at 5:19 pm
i like the part where ryan said “i have to admit that i get a little more respect now too”
Sunday, November 12th, 2006 at 5:29 pm
yes she has come so far in a year i love her so much and keep doing what you do best (singing)

After watching countless videos, I’ve come to realize what an inspiration you are to many young people out there. Your positivity, creativity and originality set you apart from everyone else. Congratulations on your success, and a toast to more to come !
Your fan,
Erica

Hey i think that cassie is to great to come this far keep up the good work and she could sing very well earn the respect that u deserve peace
much love
Sunday, November 12th, 2006 at 6:01 pm
now i have been keepings up with the ns4life family and i just have to say hat cassie is just full of no talent i mean i loveher and i think she is one of the most beautiful peole ive seen but she cant sing i respect that she went form singing live to lyp-syncing she had to but i dont respect that she is making the game to easy to be in now i mean now i could do it i got a pretty face and sexy body i should make a studio demo and give it to diddy so he can create me into a house hold name but you know ryan you are a true talent and i feel like you have limited yourself to a preety face adn skinny body but you know i go on the record by saying tht if cassie is better than what i see SHE NEEDS TO PROVE IT because all i have seen is half ass attempts to try and be an artist and one last thing if you really have to make a youtube video with diddy about how you should fuck the haters cause haters are going to hate theres really a problem cassie’s music should be the reason why people hate because she soooo talented not because she is a talentless has to learn how to write songs but still cant write artist thats all i have to say no disrepect and i dont expect a reply either but lets just keep it real here
thanks

Yo Ryan, enjoy these good moments while you can…I know you’ve got a lot of great ideas for the world today, so I can wait…Cassie is a star in the making but you’re a soon to be legend!

Amazing job, well done! You should be proud and i think you are, keep it up!
Monday, November 13th, 2006 at 4:05 pm
Amazing how far Next selection has gotten! Things are looking good back in Paris and Cassie’s song “Me and You” comes constantly on the radio!
Hope to hear more of you guys…I’m a great supporter, so keep it up!
Tuesday, November 14th, 2006 at 4:33 am
what i wanna know is why didn’t r-les get at least one beat on diddy’s album? and why cassie (a bad boy artist) wasn’t featured on any of the tracks. she’s got songs, keri hilson hasn’t. but because timbo did beats he got her on there. R-Les should’ve had at least one beat on that album. mario winans got 2. politics of the game i guess…
Tuesday, November 14th, 2006 at 12:59 pm
Picture Perfect
What a perfect title!
not only has Cassie come along way, but so have you and NEXTSELECTION
Look at what Diddy shouted out in the middle of a Photo Shot
“RYAN LESLIE - HitMakin’ Sensation”
Now FCUK ABOUT, Thats the BEST coming from the man himself.
Ryan, You must be on a HIGH everytime someone says your name.
I’m Pleased for you and Cassie and EVERYONE @ Next Selection.
Can’t Wait for an Album of your own to drop.
Its about time.
Can’t wait for Other Joints to Come from you too, working with USHER, COREY, RHEA and many more.
Keep Up the GREAT Work.
Ryan Leslie for President!!!

Law School ha ? that’s ill
Benz for Moms - iller
Who coined the term “Lifestyle” ?
Diddy using that term to the fullest -
Video Blog ? Im sure you created and put the style to it - now everybody on it.
I come from a whole nother school of thought - but your hustle is worth the respect !

There is so much talk about the success of Cassie’s album, yet its not even in the top 100 on the Billboard. Maybe she should date Kevin Federline or get into a food fight with Nicole Riche and get herself into the headlines., unless she doesn’t mind taking endless photographs for the covers of third-rate magazine companies.
Thursday, November 16th, 2006 at 5:48 am

Hey Rles as far as writing I am your NEXTSELECTION. *wink* good job and it is obvious that hardwork pays off even when everyone is not a believer! As long as you and your team believe sky is the limit. And let be honest those 4 D’s don’t hurt either. *smile*
