[edit] Performer

The Performer section needs to be re-written from a neutral POV.Reignofjerm 22:22, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Date of birth

Does anyone know Ryan's exact date of birth? I can't find it anywhere! Thanks. ~xenc. 13:29, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes Anthony Ryan Leslie was born 9/25/1978

[edit] Biography

This entry is almost as ridiculous as Cassie's. Who put Ryan Leslie "DID NOT" graduate from Harvard? Good job. And why is it at all pertinent that Harlem is a "predominantly black neighborhood"? You might as well put "and also near Columbia University." Also, there are no citations for his majors in political science and macroecon, and there is no citation for the fact that he graduated at 19. Keipop 07:16, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Controversy Section

I re-added the "Controversy" section that was blanked without explanation or discussion by an anonymous user back in October [1]. The only reason I noticed is because I helped edit that section as IP address 69.146.35.0. I'm not positive the section merits inclusion in this article, but I think it's probably worthy of some debate/discussion. After all, if you Google "Ryan Leslie YouTube," the first hit is an article on the "controversy." See Jay (talk) 09:58, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

I've restored this text again because it is not relevant if boh3m3 hates Leslie, as stated in the edit summary "Hater content removed". It is relevant that the information is referenced by a VIBE news blurb. --Geniac (talk) 12:30, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
