He never planned music for her, it’s like he signed her just to date her. Because he mention that the world would love her music but she barely got to create music and music videos.
Probably because he wanted to control her. I’m sure he could have made her really big if he wanted to. But he wanted to probably keep her at arms length. Men often do that sort of thing especially when they don’t feel good enough for the woman they’re dating.
And that was exactly a 10 year contract.. She left after exactly that. Who knows what was in that contract. I thought it was just a beard contract but that was the least of it it seems
It’s so creepy to watch this video after Cassie’s recent lawsuit against Diddy. Cassie looked so innocent and happy here. She had no idea of the hell she was about to enter.
This a Marvin Gaye situation get a young girl treat her like shit in pimp her out just for a little fame then 30 yrs later write a book or going toi court 😢
Ryan was/ is the most underrated aruist /producer of his generation, I won't be surprised had a hand in him not attaining the musical heights he surely deserved?
Ryan Leslie looking at Diddy like, I know what you up to, gave Cassie that look like don't be so attentive, she held down her head immediately. This is a crazy world. Ryan Leslie is a super talent.
Diddy saw something alright. He saw Cassie. What a snake. Cassie made a huge mistake. We now know so much more about Puffy and his sick, wicked, and evil self .
so eye opening to watch this man present at this meeting like a normal business person, all authentic and enthused about a new talent.... and then to know how he actually operates... something to think about in every business meeting I attend
Honestly Ryan knew what songs fits for cassies voice. He had a nice sound of beats and track's for cassies 1st album. Cassies musical career would have been big if she would of stuck with him. One of my favorite songs from her album is "Not With You". Ryan did a great job producing that song. She had mellow vocals to match ryans mellow beats. He really had her singing her heart out. Now other producers don't have that same vibe ryan had with her as artist. "Sometimes" is also a fav song of mines from cassie produced by ryan back in 06.
How courageous of Mr.Leslie to walk in a meeting where he probably knew that exposing his art and craft would cause him to lose his heart and mind as he knew it! what's the use of growth if we just stay the same! thanks for constantly showing us how to grow and the pain that comes with it!
It’s so weird to see him innocently and calmly engaging with her and Ryan knowing he already had such evil ulterior motives for the both of them. Evil how some people can camouflage like this. And this ladies and gentlemen is an example of how when you meet the narc/sociopath/psychopath, whatever you had NO CLUE about the blind slide that was gonna be knocked upside your head. He presented a calm demeanor, pleasant attitude, promise of success and provision of opportunity just to flip the game on its head the way he did. This is how people esp women end up trapped in abusive relationships.
@@Thaddeus-ml8ifmaybe that's you that's you. A 19 year old girl versus a 30 something year old man who clearly has an agenda for you she would not be aware of that 19 year olds are not prone if you ain't grew up in that type of environment they are not prone to look for older men to try to take your career from you. She wanted to sleep around that's your fantasy for her. Cassie was never in the news Cassie never ran her mouth Kathy was always quiet but it's the first sign of your favorite artist being accused of something horrendous it is automatically the girl fault because you like Diddy you like Daddy you like how did he moved but that's a millionaire because if he wanted you gone he can get you gone.
What you say is a joke . You are at sleep . Cassie was blind and ready to sell her soul . And in her case against Diddy she never asked for Justice , she asked for big money to close the case , she literally sold herself .
not surprised someone bumped this video lol. Ryan was with Cassie as well and in love with her, shortly after diddy came into the picture, took cassie, signed cassie and the rest is history. Ryan then, I'm pretty sure got blackballed and went the indi route. Got to meet him a few times very passionate about music but more of a businessman.
Ryan.......I get it but bring that 2009 timeless R&B fire back!!!!!! I've never heard anything like it before and still to this day have not heard anything better than what you were creating during that period. Bring it back!!!!!!!
YES KING PLEASE I / WE LOVE HIS STYLE, SWAG BEFOR THE WORD SWAG HIT THAT NEW MONEY ATTITUDE. HIS WORK, ALONG WITH HIS NATRULY SKILLS STARTED BEFOR BRITH.

Diamond Girl: Never heard anything like it before. Ryan L. Is like Teddy Riley all over again but with a newer jack swing. The man's production is simply amazing. So sad today's talents wouldn't know how to appreciate such a genuis.
He didn't have a clue that the person down across him was going to shut him and Bad Boy Down and the rest of the music high powerful executives. Cassie is a quiet storm! I'm glad she is the whistle blower.
Oh sis the battle has just began Diddy has forces with him that you wouldn't believe she just made it hard for self. The voodoo gods are coming for her Husband's ass. You just don't know the party hasn't even started yet.
@@dallasmccall7941@dallasmccall7941 Jesus Christ prayer warriors are more powerful than any satanic agenda - voodoo, hoodoo, witchcraft, santeria, satanism. Yahweh God/Jesus Christ is coming for Diddy. Diddy is done. Done done.
It's crazy to even watch this video in light of what has transpired. While he was plotting to take her away from Ryan and do what he is accused of doing to her. Little did he know that she would be the one to destroy his empire!!!! He planning and plotting, God looking and watching!
@@GoodFilms28 It's 30 years of rumors consistent in what they saying about Diddy. People have been literally scared of that male.. Why? The only ones defending him at that point are apologists.. Like do you notice most people aren't even surprised about it
Dude was on top of the world and forgot who put him there!!!!!!!! Now God has humbled him, and the world has seen him crumble. Only God can redeem him now.
Back when R-Les came thru with a sound that wasn’t heard. Everyone made mistakes after that, Diddy shouldn’t had let pleasure come before business, Cassie shouldn’t have separated herself from Ryan, the person who seen potential and got her to that defining moment her career and Ryan shouldn’t have got in business with Diddy aka “Mr. One Shot” aka I’ma promote you till your first album so I can get my advance money back and leave you to dry on the next album. I wish it all ended better in all honesty. Ryan’s music & production is classic, Diddy would have found his first flagship female artist (since Faith) and Cassie would have gotten the career that her and Ryan worked hard to create.
That's F*cked up how Diddy stole Cassie from you Les.. But you noticed her career ain't go nowhere after that shit either. You were the best and ONLY thing that happened Good to her career. I don't know what happened behind the scenes but I know you deserve better and glad you didn't go backwards. This may be just a comment but someone gotta say that shit. Everything Diddy touches since B5 been trash. Every artist and group he literally sucked dry and put them on slave contracts to benefit himself and you see where he's at now, versus you. Sure he gets props for Notorious BIG and Jodeci but that's another story in itself. Biggie is probably the only reason people take Him seriously still... And from the Grape vines... BIG was gonna leave... Nuff said.
Thank u Ryan and Ed woods for believing in cassie!!!!! U guys really seen what she is all about u guys put her out more and knew her potential im so thankful for u guys for putting her out and seeing her as an artist!!!
She didn't just come in the music industry to date a ngga, her intention was to create and put out music, and she started doing that with ryan. Diddy ruined her musical dream.
Am I the only one that saw Ryan in this video as a young intellectual snack? Maybe it’s just me lol I respect his artistry, innovation and entrepreneurship sooo much!
She was going to be a beautiful young lady you can see that she had look and she is pretty. Did he gay ass needed a cover being gay on the low and not wanting people to know his business. Puffy looped this girl into his life. Puffy look at her like she is his property, and treated her as such.
👀Diddy was looking at her over and over agian while he is talking looking at her like you just don’t know I’m bout to get you💅🏽🤣🤦🏽♀️ poor Cassie she looked so cringe 😞
Please Ryan can you just film yourself in the studio making music again and put it on youtube? Those videos are timeless. Hit us with some new shit brother.
Ryan made the best choices he could make in that situation. He didn't really have a better option. The other choice would be to worry about Cassie all the time. As the poet Cameron Giles once said, "A bird's gonna be a bird, you gotta let her fly."
"The whole world could fall in love with?" Alluding to Cassie, obviously. And to think that 2006 was the year he welcomed 3 baby girls. 1 with Sara Chapman, and twins with Kim Porter!! Mr. Combs was on a ROLL!!!
Ryan is a living legend. Not to mention him and Cassie looked so adorable together on here. Much love to Ryan, I wish you the greatness & recognition you deserve

Folks when you got a GOOD thing, hold on to it, Creepin out, thinking the Grass is Greener on the other side, can cause us our Demise! Ryan Leslie truly loved Cassie, built her up .... But she got caught up in the Puffy's Limelight and Benjamin's, the rest was History !!! Just so glad she managed to Escape his D.E.M.O.N.I.C A$$ !!
Watching this after seeing the 'hotel video' and Diddy's 'apology'. It's so sad, and scary, to actually see where this all began, how young she was and how it ended. When you have had to watch family members go through very similar things, it's extremely triggering. If THEY couldn't leave or feel able to go to the police, one can only imagine how difficult it must have been for Cassie to do so when she was up against one of the most powerful men in entertainment (..and his enablers). 💔
Its crazy because at this moment, Cassie was Ryan's girl. Diddy stole her from him! Ryan later shed a tear when talking about selling her contract to Diddy and how he weren't able to include her in his hit video "started with a kiss"
Cassie is so beautiful, I wish she would've stuck with Ryan. He's so intelligent & business-minded. Cassie is a Virgo. They usually drop you like a hot potato, money or not, because they're smart enough to make their own. I don't care HOW MUCH MONEY YOU HAVE, you WILL NOT treat me any way that you choose.
THE BEGINNING OF HELL. Young, Fresh, Hungry & Naive. The Music Industry is NO place for young women. I'm glad she's left it all behind and has found her voice and spoke her truth now.
Watching this video (and also being a teenage during this era) I remember all the rumors about Diddy/Cassie/Ryan. From the rumor love triangle, the original controversial video for Me & U, and even down to "she was only signed for looks and too be Diddy R&B/Pop arm candy" . Soon after her debut album. Ryan gets exed out the picture and in get blackballed. While Cassie career is put on hold and only releases single every 3/4 years. It was obvious by 2010 that the rumors from 06 were indeed true. But who knew album 15 years later that the story would be even darker and al the connecting dots were there. As a young black creative and entrepreneur, Diddy was somebody I took notice to early in my years but as of lately I retract support of him as an human being.
I am so in love with that 2005/2006 r&b sound that Mr. Ryan Leslie created. In light of the abuse video surfaced by CNN, it’s kind of disheartening to know what could’ve happened with her career. I didn’t like the sound Diddy chose for her, after “Official Girl” everything went downhill. She could’ve been a pop R&B star ⭐️ and model, but life is funny that way. Either way she’s happily married to Alex with 2 beautiful little girls so she still won.

Ryan, I'm glad you had foresight enough to post this years ago. Cassie should have stayed loyal to you from the beginning. The end ❤
I think everyone in that room could sense what the logistics of that meeting was all about including the very young cassie herself 😮
Ryan and Cassie already had the song Me & U. They didn’t even need diddy. What a huge mistake working with that snake.
Imagine Ryan and Cassie if they made several albums together
The beginning of tragedy for Cassie
Missing the old, genius R-Les so much...
An example here of how much control and power a record label has in determining who gets to get famous, and what they have to do for that fame.
Folks when you got a GOOD thing, hold on to it, Creepin out, thinking the Grass is Greener on the other side, can cause us our Demise!
Ryan Leslie truly loved Cassie, built her up .... But she got caught up in the Puffy's Limelight and Benjamin's, the rest was History !!!
Just so glad she managed to Escape his D.E.M.O.N.I.C A$$ !!
The beginning of the END of the hottest DUO in R&B history . He ruined them .
She already had her eyes on Diddy and vice versa but Leslie ain't lose nothing. Respect to Leslie.
Absolutely, the cooler head more often than not, wins in business.
BELITHAT
This hits harder now after knowing what happened between her and diddy
she was 19 u idiot
@jasonnesbittt where's the proof
Watching this after seeing the 'hotel video' and Diddy's 'apology'. It's so sad, and scary, to actually see where this all began, how young she was and how it ended.
When you have had to watch family members go through very similar things, it's extremely triggering. If THEY couldn't leave or feel able to go to the police, one can only imagine how difficult it must have been for Cassie to do so when she was up against one of the most powerful men in entertainment (..and his enablers). 💔
She looked so innocent
🙄😂😂😂
Watching this after his arrest and indictment charges. Diddy is a monster!
This video did not age well, if you’re watching it in Nov 2023
Pay attention to all of the people sitting at that table. The Empire Strikes back type of vibe.
Its crazy because at this moment, Cassie was Ryan's girl. Diddy stole her from him! Ryan later shed a tear when talking about selling her contract to Diddy and how he weren't able to include her in his hit video "started with a kiss"
She is excited!!!! They are all looking down…no eye contact….they know the cycle…..
I feel like diddy did something to ryan leslie too not just cassie
The beginning of the end for Cassie
Correction, the beginning of the end for S€X
TR@££ICKER DIDDLY!!! Sick reprobate demon possessed imp.
We wouldn’t know her without Diddy
Justice 4 Ryan Leslie!
Everybody seems to forget how he was done by both of them. Her brain was fully developed enough to know to choose the rich guy over the broke one
Looks like Ryan and Cassie we’re together at this point
Well what happened
Ryan and Cassie were together. Her lawsuit details how Diddy conspired to destroy their relationship.
Wow, Cassie looks so young and innocent here. My God
That telepathic look that says "Are we doing the right thing?...Glad you're with me." @2:01
It’s crazy to watch this now that he’s been exposed. Cassie I am with you ❤
Ryan, please bring your talents back to New York City in help these new artists create some memorable music like your own
She payed her price for leaving boyfriend for diabolic mogul, not everything that shines is gold
Love you Ryan. You really the bro your music saved my life
Wow, great upload, thanks for sharing Ryan
Cassie is so beautiful, I wish she would've stuck with Ryan. He's so intelligent & business-minded. Cassie is a Virgo. They usually drop you like a hot potato, money or not, because they're smart enough to make their own. I don't care HOW MUCH MONEY YOU HAVE, you WILL NOT treat me any way that you choose.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
He was scheming from the get - Super Predator!
Rest in Peace

THE BEGINNING OF HELL.
Young, Fresh, Hungry & Naive.
The Music Industry is NO place for young women.
I'm glad she's left it all behind and has found her voice and spoke her truth now.
The full story unfolds.
Puff been in the game for 30 years...he knows he started as A&R respect
Cassie don’t look excited. Everybody in the room is thinking Diddy FOS.
Ryan Leslie was a musical prodigy extremely talented and Diddy probably ensured that nobody would work with Ryan after poaching Cassie from him
he look like he inlove when he looks at cassie
wasnt he? or wasnt they a couple?
Kira Davis Hmmmm
Yup he was dam near glowing
Daddy looking at her like😂😂😂 am gonna get u girl
Diddy snatched Cassie from Ryan.
I’m here looking for clues 🕵🏽♀️
Watching this video (and also being a teenage during this era) I remember all the rumors about Diddy/Cassie/Ryan. From the rumor love triangle, the original controversial video for Me & U, and even down to "she was only signed for looks and too be Diddy R&B/Pop arm candy" .
Soon after her debut album. Ryan gets exed out the picture and in get blackballed. While Cassie career is put on hold and only releases single every 3/4 years. It was obvious by 2010 that the rumors from 06 were indeed true.
But who knew album 15 years later that the story would be even darker and al the connecting dots were there.
As a young black creative and entrepreneur, Diddy was somebody I took notice to early in my years but as of lately I retract support of him as an human being.
I miss those days...
I am so in love with that 2005/2006 r&b sound that Mr. Ryan Leslie created. In light of the abuse video surfaced by CNN, it’s kind of disheartening to know what could’ve happened with her career. I didn’t like the sound Diddy chose for her, after “Official Girl” everything went downhill. She could’ve been a pop R&B star ⭐️ and model, but life is funny that way. Either way she’s happily married to Alex with 2 beautiful little girls so she still won.
The trauma will still live in her gene pool.
Kevin Liles is sitting directly next to Puffy. He stepped down from him position right after the arrest.
Diddy was plotting on Cassie
And look at it now.. A 10 year contract and she left exactly at that mark.. Makes you wonder
Low down, poor Ryan didn’t know what was about to hit him. he’s better off .
diddy wasted really wasted everyone's time
Cassie looks kinda worried/scared at 2:03
