Ryan Leslie/ Lil' Wayne Lollipop piano solo

Here Grammy nominated record producer and multi-instrumentalist Ryan Leslie performs on The Invasion Radio Show hosted by DJ Green Lantern on Sirius satellite radio. He takes a minute to find a few melody lines in Lil Wayne's ubiquitous single Lollipop from the by now seminal Tha Carter III. Some would say he's making a wretched song bearable but it's by leveraging off the melodic conceits in Weezy's drawl that he's able to improvise such a lovely piano solo on the fly.
