MC SIR - Music Style

Music Style

Wang Xiaolei's distinctive rapping style mostly features on his stark lyrics describing poor life in China. The state of his childhood plays a major role in his music style. Here is an example of his work (a sample from "我要赚钱" ("Make Money")):

Original Chinese:

美国没去过 跑车没有坐过
Gucci没穿过 美女没有爱过
别墅没住过 美酒没喝过
这也是你们想要的 别欺骗自我

English Translation:

I never been to the U.S., never rode in a sports car
I never wore any Gucci or been loved by a pretty woman
I never lived in a house, never drank fine wine
Those are what you want, I'm not gonna fool myself

His lyrics show strong dislike for the capitalist society in China, as since he was a child, he had been living in harsh conditions. All his music is in Mandarin Chinese, with occasional use of English words.
