Ryan Leslie, who is known universally for his catchy, yet distinguished, production style, is stepping on the other side of the boards. He's premiering the video for "Diamond Girl", his extremely successful debut track. The "Diamond Girl" video, with its old school R&B feel, is a perfect stage for Leslie, whose production style is known for using real instruments to create the same sounds that others make with drum machines.

Leslie's Harlem-based NextSelection Lifestyle Group is best-known for discovering and developing Bad Boy diva Cassie. On top of producing Cassie's breakthrough single, "Me & U", Leslie's resumé boasts collaborations with Beyoncé, Britney Spears, Diddy and Snoop Dogg.
