The FADER - The FADER is the definitive voice of emerging music and the lifestyle that surrounds it.

For his Step Into The Black interview, rapper/producer Ryan Leslie discusses the details of his third studio album, Les Is More, and the record that most inspired him growing up, Thriller. He also has a pretty creepy anecdote about a super-fan who pickpocketed his hotel room key in Europe. Check out Captain Morgan’s Facebook for an exclusive download of his performance of “Breathe” in Brooklyn.
