It's been quite some time since I last updated One Mere Thought, I guess life got in the way of my thoughts and ability to write them down...I have also been considering the content which I will post in the future. This remains a mystery, as my musical interests conflict with my thoughts focusing on marketing and social media.
Rather than rambling just now, I wanted to bring One Mere Thought back to life with an appreciation post. Following the release of a new visual yesterday, Ryan Leslie appears to be looking forward to the release of his third studio album, Les is More. The video takes viewers back to Ryan's early days, with a behind the scenes look at the creation of the future single, Beautiful Lie.
With a little tribute to Steve Jobs, Ryan Leslie explains the reasoning behind leaving his major record deal behind, instead approaching things with his own beliefs, cutting out the music label restrictions. Double E's and a Gullwing...I want to be in Paris when they shoot this.
Following tweets from Ryan, and his sideman Evan Rogers, it appears like we might be in for a number of treats from the NextSelection camp. Until then, take a look through his YouTube channel to watch him in action, while I've posted some of my personal favourites below, including his latest production work with Red Cafe and Rick Ross.
