Stephen A Smith's lil brother is pretty talented tho, I think he'll always eat in the music biz because he's a dope writer, and producer.

Wondagurl is REALLY talented, I loved her contributions
to Black Mozart and Magna Carta last year.

On topic :
People can say he fell off but this man is eating better than
a lot of people. His business acumen is something
I expect to be copied to be honest.
the video started with his phone stating he has 11,000 "renegades"
with a $12 buy in to become one, that's quite a bit of money, on top of that
he has pre orders that are sent directly to him through his website.
He creates all of his own content whether that's shooting videos, writing
songs or dreaming up ideas for his own website (and soon to be released app)

He's even got enough bread to branch out and work with multiple producers.
He's smart, if he wasn't, he wouldn't still be making noise AND money.

Getting with Diddy was the gift and curse for this fukkboy. On one hand he had an "in" in the business but on the flipside, Puff stole his bytch and turned her into an imperial illuminati sex slave.

Ryan refused to take that L and just Produce. He wanted to sing, whine and bytch on songs about his bytch getting knocked when he coulda been selling those same songs to Usher/Trey Songz/Chris Brown and hopefully one day got a Beyoncé or Rihanna placement (which would did wonders for his career)

Now the dude is on this rap shyt and it just doesn't work. At all. This producer-turned-artist shyt works for only a handful of people (Pharrell, Dream [sorta] and NEYO) but them dudes still can fall back on getting placements on A lister albums.

And he's getting :flabbynsick: too. Dude gave this Dame Dash smart/dumb nikka vibe in that Ebro interview.
:mjlol: this dude went to Harvard
