Progressive Soul Mondays: Ryan Leslie

Well, it’s that time again for that “Slept On” artist that you may have heard of, but doesn’t receive the recognition he or she deserves. This week, Ryan Leslie has the privilege of being the last artist featured for the year.  This D.C. native is a singer, rapper and producer. But he’s not only a musical genius. He scored a 1600 on the SATs at age 15 and graduated from Harvard at 19. 


Leslie has produced songs for Cassie, Keri Hilson and various Bad Boy artists. He just released his second album on his own label NextSelection titled Transition. Enjoy!
