In 1973 Seals & Crofts released their smash pop single, Diamond Girl; 34 years later Ryan Leslie has released a single of the same name. What are the differences? Well, for starters, Ryan doesn’t dress like a hippy. And of course, only one version of Diamond Girl can be heard over the speakers at a club. Whether he is hard at work on Cassie’s sophomore album or lending his talents to a countless number of A-list artists who seek his production expertise, Leslie is always working. To find a ‘diamond girl’ you must have the funds; to keep a ‘diamond girl’ you must have the time. Though Ryan might be out of luck there, the upside to his predicament is well worth the struggle.
This is WEAK! The beat is all wrong and singing is average. Nothing special here...I don't know who he is now and this song will make it stay that way...He is probably better off behind the scenes...Usher and Chris Brown got this on lock...
Ryan Leslie, now I always give this man credit because he HAS talent, but this song ain't one of his best. It's still aight, his voice is unique which is what keeps me listenin, but the beat doesn't fit, a different, smoother beat, and I would be happy.
Blaze, I'm feeling your comments. LOL! That's funny. I agree, this is R-U-B-B-I-S-H. It's really stinkin' up da place. P.U.
I read Usher's Old Gurl, Baby Mama put his Album on hold b/c she requires his undivided attention thru out her pregnancy. I hope this is false.
first of all, the box u just exited mr leslie, was what is excepted by the listening public, and thank u for agreeing. the beat is okay, but just a lil off 4 this song, the lyrics could use some more work (prob cause he's so "busy"). otha den dat itz okay, sorta growin on me... hope a remix wid Akon or Lil'Wayne will happen..
ryan leslie got nuff skills,
definately under rated player of the year, dude is way talented,
not sure if I like this one being honest!
I still put it in a mix
6.4-10
I'm feelin this joint!! I don't know what some of ya'll talkin bout. Lyrics... catchy and clever. Voice... has talent. Beat... makes you move. I wouldn't compare him to Usher and Chris Brown.. He has lil bit of a different sound/style. He's not the best new artist; but you can't hate on him, he's doin his thang!
I really like it, in the south they playin it A LOT and there is rappin in it but I don't know who it is, it sounds a lil diff. then the one you have on here but its cool, it does feel a lil spring time/ summerish
