laylo.com/sir

With the ever-evolving landscape of R&B, SiR has solidified his place as one of the genre’s most compelling voices. Since his 2015 debut project, Seven Sundays, he has consistently delivered soulful, introspective music that resonates with fans worldwide. His HER EP series (HER in 2016 and HER TOO in 2017) earned widespread praise, setting the stage for his breakout sophomore album, November (2018).

SiR continued his momentum with Chasing Summer (2019), a critically acclaimed album that featured the RIAA Gold-certified single “Hair Down” with Kendrick Lamar, as well as fan favorites like “John Redcorn” and “You Can’t Save Me.” 

During the pandemic, he kept his audience engaged with the single “Rapper Weed” and his well-received cover of The Isley Brothers’ classic “Footsteps in the Dark, Pts. 1 & 2.”

In 2022, SiR entered a new chapter of his career, releasing a string of singles, including “Satisfaction,” “Life Is Good,” and “Nothing Even Matters.” He continued to build anticipation for his next project with the release of “No Evil” and “Karma” featuring Isaiah Rashad.

In 2024, SiR delivered Heavy, his highly anticipated album, which arrived on March 22. With this latest body of work, he reaffirms his place as a driving force in modern R&B, seamlessly blending soulful storytelling with rich, timeless production.

One hot summer’s day in the early 1980s, a troubled young schoolkid was being supervised alone in the music room for some forgotten misdemeanor. He spent the period playing a drum kit for the first time in his life, and when he was ready to go, the student teacher who had been supervising signed off his report card with the fateful words: “excellent drummer!”

Throughout the ’90s and ’00s, I played drums in “happy-clappy” churches up and down the country, as well as in college, where I toured with a band named Kurios. I’ve always had music in me. I never properly learned to play a “real” instrument — but why would an undiagnosed autistic kid with ADD want to pluck strings or blow through reeds when he can just hit things?!

These days, as I’m getting older (55) and increasingly disabled (I can no longer manage a full drum kit), I’ve finally found ways to get the music out of my head and into yours through the wonders of technology. I record everything in my home studio using a humble Arturia Minilab 3, a PC running Reaper, and a whole range of tools and plugins.

Now, on the use of AI, let me be absolutely clear:

I do not support the swamping of streaming platforms with “AI slop.” However, as an IT professional with fairly extensive knowledge and experience of AI, I also do not support the indiscriminate dismissal and castigation of any and all use of AI in music production — or any of the arts, for that matter. And as a drummer, I suppose I got over it years ago, back when we were being replaced in studios by computers from the late ’80s onward..!

For me, AI is just another tool in the artist’s toolbox — one that helps me massively shorten and simplify my workflows, and one that’s helped to elevate my craft to something much closer to professionally produced work. I don’t sing (very well), but with AI tools such as Ace Studio, Audime, or Suno Studio, I can turn my own voice — or even simple musical notation — into just about any vocal I can imagine.

I don’t play guitar (at all — I’ve got tiny sausage fingers), but with AI I can turn any melody hammered out on my MIDI controller into a lead guitar, bass riff, or just about any other instrument. I’m a musician, but I’m also an engineer, and I hope those skills — along with my hard work and passion — come through in my music and set it apart from the AI slop which is becoming so prevalent . 🙏🙏🙏 (And yes, I did have ChatGPT proof read this Bio, which is why it's full of em-dash symbols 😅)

As for the lyrics in my songs — the stories they tell — those are all me. They come from my life experiences, and from the obsessive scribbling of the angsty autistic teenager who still lives in my head and believes his poetry is so deeply profound. 😅

Melvin Knight (1974-2006), was a prolific self produced singer and songwriter who made his living as an electrician in Baltimore before moving to Chicago in the early 2000’s to peruse his music career with fellow musician and confidant Carl Winslow. Melvin was tragically betrayed and killed by Carl in a dispute over ownership of Melvin’s masters. In the aftermath, much of Melvin’s work was thought to be lost to time, until his children discovered many of his recordings hidden in storage. His heirs (Moesha, Donavan, and Marvin), work tirelessly to release their late father’s work into the world to preserve his legacy.

My music is an expression and reflection of me, listen and like an open book your questions will be answered
