Ryan Leslie Interview - How To Break Into Music Industry, Hacking Into Harvard and Superphone 

Thank u!!!! - Lil B

"..If you had 60 conversations today, thats 60 chances to be invited to something that could enrich your life.." That really puts it into perspective what you could be missing out on, financially, socially, emotionally, creatively

The thing is, Everyone wants to “make it” but they’re not willing to put up any money. It’s like any business, it has an overhead. Stop shooting music videos in an alley with your android. Stop dropping music recorded on a $20 mic. Start INVESTING YOUR BREAD IN QUALITY. Work in perfecting your craft & learn everything you can about marketing. Create brand equity & then use that as leverage. Go get it .

Holy shit you interviewed Ryan Leslie. Props 🙌

Probably one of the most articulate producers/artists out there. Solid gold.

You out here bringing value to us artists, thank you!

Need more interviews like this where it's just a chill casual conversation about music that doesnt seem like an "interview" but just a conversation that happened naturally.

They laughed at me when I was in the uber and I explained the bogus concept of Self made and Independent False Narrative. This is refreshing to hear, thanks Ryan for enlightening this topic...

The best artist interview I have ever seen. You allowed him to speak on the points you wanted to touch on and he gave incredible answers. Very much appreciated. Also subbed.

Ryan Leslie is next level. So much respect. I’ve never acquired this much information about how to run a success music business, or just business, in such a short amount of time. Very happy I found this tonight, thank you!

So he’s basically just doing advanced email marketing and segmenting. It does work!!

Starting a career as an independent artist and located where I am.. Aye This is Really helpful and indeed a Catalyst. And I feel the frequency seeing Ryan Leslie jacket.. Almost shot my first interview in one.

Yo, how tf did you get Ryan lesslie ? Doing big things man!

I never knew this guy is this brilliant. Wow! I am amazed.

Great to see your brand grow so much brother man! Keep Killin it!

You are a god send for music artist bro.

Best 44 minutes of my day today

This interview was fire! The questions were just as good as the answers. Respect for both these men.

This is a blessing dawg 💯 I took so many notes and share this video with a few people who's tryna follow the same dream as I am I just want to see everyone succeed 🙏🏾💯

This interview, and this interaction is just PRICELESS 😵, this is providing so much value, more than anyone can offer... and it's for free. Thanks alot Sean 🙏

Excellent interview fam! I don’t understand how more artist aren’t interested in this technology. It’s definitely disruptive and groundbreaking. I wonder if this put a target on his back in the industry, because he’s basically showing the slaves/artist how to get free.

saw him live at a free concert in Central Park after MJ died. this brother is a monster Genius... word .. I filmed the whole concert ...

Excellent interview Brandman SeanTaylor! I knew about Ryan for years but didn't know this much about him and his journey. I had to hit him up again after this lol Thanks, one of the best interviews I've seen man. Peace!

Thanks for this interview! Always impressed by the mind behind Ryan Leslie. Been following his talent since the early 2000s when I first started making music. Love the energy, strategy and creativity behind the framework he’s established

This is the most essential interview to watch for any up and coming artist. Props for great questions and really unlocking some gems!

This interview has to reach more people, it was great 🙏🏾

I was listening to this in the car. Lots of great information, I really enjoyed this.

I’m glad this popped up on my RU-vid feed. Thank you for interviewing Ryan Leslie. This interview was full of game for entrepreneurs.

A very intelligent man. I stan

Not everyone who's listening and learning, are young folks. Not only are they the ones who would benefit from this information. What about older artists, or are people truly believing that they are either established, or that their dream has passed them by? I don't think so. Those people who buy music before, eventually grow up, and still, at times, buy music...

Completely respect Ryan Leslie. SuperPhone is a great concept got it a couple of months ago need to sit with it more to truly capitalize on it.

holy shit bro this is legendary, keep up the good work

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 man you're seating with the legendary Leslie !

Damn😭I cannot believe this is true📝📝📝🔥

Still a great interview, thanks Brandman for sharing this gold 💯

Very elegant interview my brother✊🏾

I have to go out of my way to find songs from him.. I really miss the Ryan Leslie the singer .. His production he did for others, and his own songs I love.. He's a very intelligent guy.. Please more Ryan Leslie singing ..

Yooo...this is crazy...love this interview and all the wisdom!!

This super phone is so powerful. I can think of so many uses , especially in clinical research.

Such an amazing Interview thanks so much for doing this and I am so grateful to Ryan Leslie for being in touch with you and agreeing to do this amazing video which is amazing for so many reasons. I love and appreciate you both. Such amazing insight, knowledge, etc. I am so stunned by this experience and I wasn't even physically there. I believe in everything you both was talking about. I felt like I was actually in the room. Again, Thanks so so much.

So well spoken! You can tell he's got a brain!

I loved interview. He planted a seed in me a few years ago when i was a part of his beat club which made my music better. Im on my way.

Thank you for another great video Brandman. The information in this interview was very insightful and inspiring. Keep up the great work & hustle.

@Brandman I know I'm a year late here but this interview was gold. So many nuggets and I appreciate how focused you were on getting those gems (and skipping the gossip and shit they publish elsewhere)

Great job brothas. Both of you. Super good. Super inspiring. Great job asking the questions and letting RL Rollllllll! 👍🏽

This was a deeply enlightening session for me. Thanks so much!!!!

Incredible. Dude is one of the smartest in the game.

huge fan of Ryan, appreciate both of you taking the time to speak to the aspiring entrepreneurs and creatives

Brandman, this video is great. Keep supplying us with Ryan Leslie advice. He's basically an urban musician + silicon valley genius rolled in one.

Damn 🔥 Great interview Sean 🙏🏼

Most game given in one interview this year! Definitely must rewatch!

dope interview bro!!! Keep it up and stay blessed!!!

I was showing a friend some videos of R.Les making beats back in the day, and I'm glad I saw this interview play in the "up next" section. This was incredibly dope. I feel I have a better perspective on approaching my music and content in general. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for putting this together 🙏

Bro no disrespect but I dead ass thought you were just another guy on RU-vid. But I know one of the goats would fuck with just anyone. Respect

This is the most value I've ever received from an interview. First off, great interview! Secondly keep up the good work.

One of the greatest interviews ever!💪🏾💪🏾

Had to pause this to give ya'll perspective here. This is A LOT of good info...HOWEVER....this is AN EMORMOUS ASK of an artist to do this. This is why a TEAM is critical, management, pr, etc. Managing relationships is 90000% the game. However to ask an artist to do this is almost IMPOSSIBLE......keep your head space in the creation of your money horse. Make music. FIND YOUR TEAM THAT WILL MANAGE ALL THESE RELATIONSHIPS. And yes, i know.....that is ALSO damn near impossible. But it helps this sound less overwhelming for you guys. FIND 4 OR 5 PEOPLE THAT WILL MANAGE YOUR RELATIONSHIPS. That's the key.

Damn Brandman got 600 contacts in yo phone? I only got 6 and their all restaurants lol

Thank you for providing such a great interview with Ryan Leslie! I have been following your RU-vid channel close to its inception and I'm happy to see that your platform\channel is increasing to heights that can get you interviews like this (and the one you did with Digital NAS's manager)! Keep the content coming please Brandman Sean!

Awesome interview Brandman. Thank you for the great content you provide!

He's such a brilliant man.. I love him 😘💞

any goal is not possible. I couldn't go to the nba even if I had practiced more than anyone else. A lot of it is natural talent as well. he's a creative genius. and a very smart person in general.

You're amazing homie,this interview just blew my mind.I've been following you for about 5 months and I have to say you're doing a great job.Much respect homie

All 👂's Brody! Thank you both for your insight and Time! 💯✖💯

Thanks a stack. I learned more from this video than any other I have watched this year. Forget the music - this is a fantastic future communication business model. Great to be able to listen to such a marketing visionary. This guy is on another level. Now going to search for Superphon. BTW - what a fantastic ego-less interviewer. Really lets the story be told.

Thank goodness for BRANDMAN 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
