Ryan Leslie discuses tech, text management, music and more.

Ryan Leslie is known for being a legend in the music industry as a Grammy nominated producer, singer and rapper. He's had hit records of his own and has worked with some of the biggest names in music history.
His genius reaches far past music. He scored a perfect score on his S.A.T. at fourteen and went on to graduate from Harvard University. He has always been ahead of his time. He was one of the first artists to give his fans his phone number as a way to have a direct relationship with his supporters.
He shocked the music industry in 2012 when he took his music off of streaming services and as a result, he made more money. Now he is focused on his latest venture called Super Phone, which is a text message data management system that he expects will change the way we communicate with each other.
His goal is to be the next tech giant and change the world in the process. On episode 64 , Ryan discusses all of the aforementioned topics and much more, for one of our most broad-ranging conversations ever. #techstartup #marketing

"You Get What You Negotiate" 🏁

[@jhills2728]

J Hills you take away Charlemagne and it would have been even worse!

[@patchale5733]

Just heard of Ryan Leslie for the first time. Listening all the way from Tanzania

[@jasonhowell7102]

I like how Ryan explained how he “scratched his own itch” with a better way to manage intimate business relationships and ended up creating superphone. What was key for me was him explaining the unknown threat of email and text. The implied familiarity with known people out text with vs random people you give your email to. How Ryan explained the scalability of Amazon and facebook and how to use that same technology to create and use for a direct to consumer relationship with your tribe/fans was golden. Around @50:45 he started talking about the enterprise clients using superphone from fashion to music. One of the many lessons learned was scratch your own itch...test it on yourself...gather data...improve...patience (6-7 in superphone a case)...network (warm intro from people you engage with) and continue to model and forecast on future needs and problems based on comparable technology (I.e. email file management vs text file management..it’s coming). Hey thanks earn your leisure for this podcast. First saw Ryan in Heidelberg, Germany around 2013 when he gave everyone his number to text him. The crowd went crazy. Big up to Ryan and earn your leisure crew. Thanks.

We need more of this as long as the content is being used and absorbed i love the movement.

[@cbplibra1012]

The "PHONE IS LISTENING" thing happens to me all of the time. I was in the store TODAY, the lady in front of me was trying to help the man in front of her count, because he didn't speak English, she spoke Spanish but HE spoke Portuguese. She turns to me with a smile and says " I was trying to help but he speaks Portuguese". I get in my car to play my music on my phone and a vacation ad to Portugal pops up.

[@tommyhili6805]

Dope interview💯💯

[@cmoorebeezy]

The data and information from what you look up or have interest in when searching is transferred/provided across email, clouds, social platforms, etc. when you signed the user agreement clauses without reading them. It’s not your microphones listening to you but your individual algorithms(not the correct term but just to give a general idea of what I’m trying to say) this just gives a data profile on your habits/patterns/interests/etc. This is from the bit of knowledge I have by no means an expert

[@Shay416]
