Ryan Leslie - How It Was Supposed To Be


Video 2 of 3 for Ryan Leslie's "How It Was Supposed To Be" (Military Version)Starring & Co-Directed by Tyson Beckford

Says Ryan:

"So much to write about this video. First, I had a concept that I shared with Shiv and the two of us fine tuned it into a treatment. I shopped it to some directors and when they told me how much they expected it to cost ($200K), I decided to direct it myself to give my staff an incredible learning experience. Two weeks into the planning and production process, I ran into Tyson Beckford at the G-star fashion show and invited him to direct the video with me. I could write a book about the production of this video - scripting, rehearsal, styling, filming, editing, sound design, color-correction…"

My favorite track from this album is "Not Afraid", Stephanie's vocal very strong on the song, and the music is pretty nice too, typical pop rock, when you listening this song, it makes you wanna shake your bootilicious. Another great track is "Waitin' On You" where Stephanie singing with more slow and nice, the poppish sensation is more get it on this track. "Love Out Loud" is happy song, we can hear Stephanie singing with happy and it feels like we feel it.

If you are fans of Krystal Meyers, then Stephanie Smith's new album might be compatible for you.
