consumer behavior ryan leslie v. soulja boy
DESCRIPTION
Guest lecture in the COM 370, Publicity and Media Relations class at Trinity Washington University #funtimes. I used Ryan Leslie's #Renegades Club, built on the Disruptive Multimedia (DMM) platform (his tech startup), as part of a case study on consumer behavior. I compared Ryan Leslie's career to that of Soulja Boy who has also used tech tools - digital distribution platforms and social media - to share content.TRANSCRIPT

networks and access in order to maintain connections
with their fans.
• When sites like MySpace lose momentum, they also
strip artists of whatever momentum they may have built
on the site.
