AmirSaysNothing

AmirSaysNothing, born Amir Tillard in 1991, is an independent rapper who grew up roaming the East Coast, including New York, DMV, and Boston. Influenced early on by his father, a Nation of Islam minister with a deep love for hip-hop, Amir initially moved to Los Angeles at 18 to pursue professional skateboarding before fully turning to music. He started rapping seriously around age 21, releasing his first project, the *Medium Rare* EP, in 2015, followed by his debut album *Employee of the Month* in 2016, which gained attention for its honest, relatable, blue-collar perspective.

Amir’s music combines thoughtful storytelling with laid-back beats and has earned the respect of artists like Atmosphere, who even gave him a shoutout. Over time, he has built strong connections in the independent hip-hop scene and expanded his discography with projects like *Endless Brightside* in 2021 and the highly anticipated *We Are Who We Say We Are* in 2025, featuring collaborations with Killer Mike and Project Pat. Throughout his career, AmirSaysNothing has stayed true to expressing his real-life experiences and championing authenticity in rap.
