Garett wrote it again). Sure some productions from Ryan sounds like they are influenced e.g. by the Neptunes, but even those guys had bited timbaland and depeche mode. Take something that existed before and create something new with it, that is nothing new in this industry. So which songs exactly do you mean?

Ryan is down to earth, doesn't take things for granted and appreciates every little thing that comes with his success, you can easily tell when following his blog, messages, responses etc. Maybe that's why such disturbed people like Trademark have so much anger inside, cause those are the ones who don't understand why Ryan is the way he is. Just himself! Well, if you were stupid enough to contribute any material without a contract, blame yourself.
