Passes in Chicago
When everyone is sleeping on my tour bus and it’s 5:21am, it’s good to be able to send out a message and get a friendly response from someone else in the world who’s up. On my way into Chicago, I posted an update offering passes to my show and Britney Clark was the first to respond:
I appreciate Britney and everyone else who’s following my career as it unfolds. You make the journey that much more worth the while. Thank you!









R. Les, man, all I can say is wow… I been listenin for a while and you continue to amaze me. I am an aspiring singer lookin to try to get a career started and you’re on e of the many performers i look up to. Keep it goin man. Do big things!
God is love
no one stays in touch with their fans the way you do……….keep up the good work x
I ditto that comment above! Keep it up!
hope you came to Europe (Spain) soon i wanna watch you live, your new album will be the bomb! congrats Ryan!
Thats shows how friendly you are.
The Person is good
The Music is good
Aww that was a great move! It is good to see such talented artists like you appreciating dedicated fans! I love your humility and dedication to what you do
It inspired me to work harder.
I agree with all the comments posted above. A truly talented man. I really don’t know any other artist that cares and tries to connect with fans like you do! Can’t wait for you come to London!
P.S I just got my brother to listen to your stuff after months of nudging him to …now you are all I hear him playing
Wow! That was nice of you Ryan. I love the way you show appreciation to your fans.
Aw he be in Chicago? i wish i knew that i would love to get him to sign my Zune i love his album he has the best music! im so mad that my player won’t play You’re Fly i love that song.. anyways that’s pretty cool how he give to his fans as his fans gives to him =]

Hi, I love your style and music. Keep up the good work.
Yo come to the UK, tweet and I’ll be there – hell you wouldnt even have to tweet for me to be there! Come back to the UK!
LOVe, LOVE, Love!!!!!
=)
i just wanna say i absolutely love you and your music! when you came to my school, bridgewater state college bridgewater ma, in april i was so excited and appreciative. it was an awesome concert and i just wanted to thank you!
I agree with the comments above. You are one of the only artists who actually want to connect with their fans, you don’t ever see that nowadays. You show so much love to fans and it makes me grateful that I admire someone who admires their fans as well. You are an amazing artist, producer and person. I wish I didn’t work so much, I’ll try finding you on twitter.
God Bless YOU! NS4Life.

Amazing Ryan.. you really are a true artist in every sense of the word.

Les when are you coming to the UK? The people out here are more than ready for your thrill especially University students in my town Leicester. Man make that happen!
You’re a great inspiration and what the industry seems to be lacking. The R&B and hip hop section at my work were playing your album for a week and I would make any excuse to stay around there just so I could get a dose of R-Les. I hope you come to London soon!
ryan! do you have your album here in Singapore? i need it. haha (:
Ryan Leslie… You always amaze me with your great music from “the way that you move” till “something that I like” & I really think that “you’ve got fashion & style”…

It’s really really dope and I spent a lot of time and put a ton of hard work in it.
Let me know what you think…also I would love to send you some of my shirts if you like them. Just respond through the contact tab on the website.
Thanks!!!
And people are still SLEEPING on you R.Les! So down to earth. Thank you for being you!
Such a huge fan! Glad you show appreciation to your supporters!!! That humbling spirit will carry you far. I had the opportunity to see you perform at the House of Blues in Orlando with Jazmine Sullivan… you did AWESOME! Your love of music truly manifests in your performances. I sooooo can’t wait until you are headlining your own tour and for the new CD to drop…. even though I’m still rockin’ this one like its brand new! Many blessings on your journey to the top!!!!

hey man when are you going to come to huntsville, alabama!!!!????
Mr. Ryan Leslie you are awesome. I love your music. I hope to one day be the female version of you.
I’m going to make it my business to see you perform when to come back to NY!!!!!!!!!!!
Ryan ! If you ever come to France! you have to leave a message on twitter cause if you do, i swear to god that i’ll be there! I swear ! AND I NEED THAT “ZODIAC”SONG !! It just sounds so perfect ! “what’s your zodiac sign…. are we compatible baby !! BZZZZZZ!!! If it matches with mine… we should think about dating yeahh….”
Depuis que michael n’est plus la ! tu es le meilleur du monde !
I was at the show in Chicago and you were phenomenal!!! I cannot wait to see you perform again..please keep up the amazing work and originality. It is much appreciated!!
Is ryan in like a funk stage right now? But I like it! A lot! Check out http://www.MARQCTV.com for more R-LES!
I really admire your ambitious drive… We your fans appreciate all that you do! and we support your dreams. Keep up the wonderful work.
You totally win Gold for fan connection. It’s ridiculous. I go to school in Chicago, just missed it! haha I was in NYC when you did the iPod give away at the Apple store…missed that too! But just seeing what you manage to do on a very regular basis is awe inspiring. Great music. Great person. Can’t go wrong!
I love ‘you’re not my girl’.
You are an amazingg artist ! you don’t understand how much i love your work ! from your producing to your colabo’s and your singles and albums both new and old. You never seem to dissapoint when it comes to new creations ! keep it up because i absolutly love your work !
yo,ryan,how about P.Y.T. -pretty young thiing 4 your guitar
Ryan, Thanks for being an inspiration to young aspiring artists. One of my students has really taken to your music and the example you set as a hardworking musician. He has a dedication to you on his myspace. I want you to know what it says. “RYAN LESLIE REALLY IS MY HERO. IN A WAY, I REALLY WANT TO BE LIKE HIM. HE WRITES HIS OWN SONGS AND COMPOSES HIS OWN MUSIC. HE IS AWESOME! HIS SONGS I CAN RELATE TO AND THEY HAVE MEANING. THERE IS TRUE VALUE BEHIND THEM. HE ISN’T YOUR AVERAGE ICED UP BLINGED OUT THROWING MONEY AROUND KIND OF CELEBRITY. HE WEARS JUST WHATEVER HE WANTS AND DOESN’T SEEM TO CARE TO IMPRESS PEOPLE WITH HIS MATERIAL THINGS. HE CREATES FRIENDS OUT OF FANS, AND TRULLY VALUES THEM. RYAN LESLIE IS THE ISH! NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT! I HOPE ONE DAY I GET TO WRITE A SONG WITH HIM OR SING WITH HIM OR COLLABORATE WITH HIM. THAT IS MY DREAM!” What a neat legacy of artists you can inspire! Thanks!
I agree with Sadia. I know that because you are communicating with your fans and acknowledging us, you are an appreciative artist. Most celebs won’t put in the time and effort that you do with fans. So, thank you for your work in music and sincere efforts to consider us, ALL OF YOUR BIGGEST FANS.
Ryan you have a new fan. Your show was hott in Chicago. I wish you could have stayed on longer and did a few more turns..LOL! The vibe you give off is amazing and the lyrics are too much.
Check out this write up that was done about you from my friend….

Hi Ryan!
After a wonderful week of vacationing in Chicago from Canada, I have to say that you and Jazmine at the HOB were one of my top highlights. Thank you for an outstanding concert; you are a great talent and I will continue to watch and support you as you rise to the top! Congrats, Ryan!

I CAN’T WAIT UNTIL OCTBER 13th. My Birthday Present to myself is to find a Ryan Leslie Concert and purchase that CD. Oh and we share the same birth month. Ryan is Freakin AWESOME! I’m the biggest R-Les Jersey fan.
Mr. Leslie, your sound is familiar yet innovative. Your music contains honest heartfelt lyrics enwrapped in a sound that envokes memories of “yesteryear,” while basking in the emotions of today. You represent what is missing in music….True “MUSIANSHIP.”
Innovative!
Mr. Leslie! I can never get enough of your music! Whenever I am going through, I always flip on R.Les! Im so proud to be a Ryan Leslie fan. <3 You never seize to amaze me
Hi Ryan,
It’s wondeful that you take the time to reach out to your fans.
I know it may be difficult at times because of your schedule.
However, people don’t forget kindness so I’m certain your efforts will be returned.
