Ryan W is back on the scene in a major way, and he’s serving up some controversy with his latest release/music video HARDCORE.
Setting the bar for other gay recording artists was one of the goals with this video, so the Pop provocateur sought out a production company that could capture his vision of desire, liberated through naked earnestness.
“I was tired of seeing other artists put out low-budget videos that only delivered infinite boredom. I found a company that could deliver the high-quality production value that so many other music videos today on the gay scene are lacking.” To accomplish his mission, he contracted Los Angeles production company Visual Harassment to produce and direct the video, and Brad Rushing, whose credits include Britney's flaming Toxic video, along with other projects by Eminem, Mariah Carey, Nelly and Justin Timberlake, to be his Director of Cinematography. “I was truly blessed to work with such amazing, high-profile professionals for this project,” W comments.
Frustrated by the stigma faced by most openly gay recording artists, Ryan made it a point to put out a REAL music video, and not the typical corny nonsense that promises little and delivers less. With slick production value, award-winning cinematography, a hit song poised to anathematize, and that irrepressible WOW factor, Ryan W is hitting the scene HARDCORE.
“When other gay artists and drag queens drop beige, blasé tracks that aren’t even suitable for elevator music, then pair them with videos that only make you change the channel, it makes it a real challenge to be taken seriously and not seen as forgettable or throw-away. It's time for a change!”
HARDCORE is available on iTunes, Amazon, and all major portals Worldwide and the video can be accessed via YouTube or by visiting RYANWMUSIC.com
