Ryan's first noted major placement was Arista Recording artist, Toya Rodriguez, professionally known as Toya in 2001. He produced over 50 percent of the album including her most popular hit “I DO!” The single and debut album 'Toya', sold approximately 400,000 copies. In 2001 Ryan’s remake of Patti Labelle’s “Love Need and Want You” featured as "Dilemma" on Nelly’s album, Nellyville. The single landed at #1 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip Hop Singles & Tracks, Hot Rap Tracks and on the Hot 100 as the first rap song to hold the #1 spot for 12 consecutive weeks earning a Grammy for Best R&B and Rap Collaboration. “Dilemma” now sits at #64 on Billboard’s Greatest Songs Of All Time and is the most successful song of Nelly's career, giving him his first number-one single in many countries, such as Australia, Belgium, Germany, Ireland, The Netherlands, Switzerland, United Kingdom and the United States. Dilemma was nominated twice for Best Music Video at the 2003 Soul Train Awards and MTV Music Video Awards.
