<No Less>是来自于中国上海的说唱歌手Tommy Sire的首张个人EP。 Tommy Sire从2007年开始从事Hip Hop音乐的创作和表演，演出合作过的艺人包括欧洲格莱美得奖说唱歌手“Dogge Dogglito”、中国说唱元老Tim Wu、美国加州说唱歌手Bryan King以及底特律新生代说唱歌手Tone Perignon。合作过的音乐制作人包括来自杭州的新生代制作人Kast Chain、Pharrel Williams DJ大赛前5强DJ Vance、著名制作人Scottie Spitts、E-Trou、Dude Clayy、808 Trel以及Anthony Page等等。 从艺的十年间于不同平台发布过近20首单曲以及2张mixtape， 其中在2014年发布了与Bryan King共同创建的AMG (Ascension Music Group)的首张mixtape并获得了9.9的高分并将中英文结合的说唱理念进一步传播给世界。 Tommy Sire的说唱风格在中英文之间切换自如，用一种与世无争的态度去阐述生活以及想法。 <No Less>的本意为”Nobody is less than anybody, I’m no less than anybody else”希望通过这张EP可以让所有人都体会到每个人追求目标的权利是平等的。无需畏惧他人的看法，唯一重要的看法来自于你自己。在如今众口难调，键盘侠横行的互联网时代，很多人也许会因为一个陌生人的看法而打击到自己追求幸福的信心，Tommy Sire只想告诉你，“你不比别人差，无需被他人的看法左右你的决心”。 参与本张EP的制作人分别来自英国和美国，唯一一段客串Verse来自于多年老友Bryan King， 本曲<Bounce 2.0>也是四年前<Ascension: One>mixtape上歌曲<Bounce>的续集。 有人问“为什么要唱那么多英文？”，希望大家可以仔细看一下歌词的内容，比起目前混迹在国内并在国外长大的华人来说，Tommy Sire的英文歌词完全不落下风，甚至更胜一筹。这也是Tommy Sire表达自己No Less的一个方式。 Peace & Love <No Less> is Shanghai based Hip Hop artist Tommy Sire’s debut solo project. Tommy Sire is known as one of the most talented Chinese Hip Hop artists and has great potential in becoming an international Hip Hop star. He also has experience in acting, songwriting, and music management. He has been making rap music since 2007 and has worked with big names such as: European Grammy winner “Dogge Dogglito”, TimWu, Bryan King, DJ Vance, Scottie Spits, Grey Lee, Merty Shango, Dude Clayy, E-Trou, Kvng Zuzi, 808Trel and Anthony Panagi. Tommy Sire has released 20 tracks and 2 mixtapes on different platforms so far, the mixtape <Ascension: One> with his long time friend “Bryan King” which has been released in 2014 has got 9.9 point on Chinese music stream platform “Xiami”, it’s the highest rated album in the platform history, period. Tommy Sire effortlessly switches his flow from Chinese to English and has been grinding now for a decade to bring to the world his unmatched talent and wit. It seems that no one can compete with the Sire! <No Less> is a message which encourages people to chase the lives they want, and do not care about the opinions that don’t matter. Everyone has an equal rights to chase and to fulfill. If anyone on the internet that you don’t know has spoken something negative to you, all you can do is see them as haters and keep pushing your limits. “You are no less than anybody”. Even though Tommy Sire is based in Shanghai, China, the producers for the instrumentals are all based in England and U.S.A. And the only feature he gets is from his long time friend Bryan King who is based in Las Vegas. The featured track <Bounce 2.0> is also a sequel of the most popular track on <Ascension: One> project <Bounce>. Even though this is a bilingual rap project (Chinese&English). People always ask him why he likes to rap in English so much, if you take a close look at the lyrics you would find out he is more than just a little bit better than those “Chinese’ rappers who do the same thing. That’s another way Tommy Sire wants to show the world that he is no less. Hope you enjoy listening to the music. Peace&Luv
