   About More Or Les
MORE OR LES WEBSITE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION

While I "change the fixtures in the bathroom, paint the bedrooms a different colour, and add a skylight to the kitchen," you can continue to get your online More Or Les fix Here, or on Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/pages/More-Or-Les/7645645473?ref=ts

Check the music video for the dopest ode to Middle School ever - POP N CHIPS - featuring rap phenoms Ghettosocks and Timbuktu!

More Or Les and Fresh Kils: The Les Kils EP is a hyper-dense, super-compact SUPER collection of 7 dope songs (plus bonus) all produced by Fresh Kils. The EP features Backburner members Uncle Fester on the cuts, and Ghettosocks and Timbuktu on the kick-ass song "Pop N Chips" - my ode to Middle School Rap.

Seriously, Middle School.

It's at CDbaby.com, emusic.com and on iTunes.

You can find my BIO below the VIDEOS:

“…a genuine, honest to goodness kick-ass hip-hop show…” (Erik Leijon, CHARTattack, 2008)

“More Or Les produces some of the most digestible, accessible, intelligent, memorable and infectious raps we've ever heard. Drawing from alternative and underground hip hop trends, his sound is still his own, simultaneously well-steeped in old school while being forward-thinking at the same time.” (CD Baby.com, 2006.)

“Inspired by rap's pre-gangsta golden age -- when good-natured hip-hoppers like Jungle Brothers and Dream Warriors strode the Earth -- Les doesn't just say "it's about fluency with rhyming ingenuity," he proves it.” (Toronto Globe & Mail, 2006.)

“More Or Les: Dope Canadian Hip Hop. This MC slings y’all back to a certain sector of rap’s golden age with his sunny, breezy funk productions and feel-good syllables on the mic.” (The Seattle Stranger, 2004.)

More Or Les BIO:

With two critically-acclaimed albums, a noted music video, North American and European touring under his belt and a feature on the latest album of UK's The Herbaliser - MC, Producer and DJ, More or Les is a hip hop triple threat. With a new CD released in summer of 2009, The Les Kils EP is a collaborative effort with talented TO musician, Producer Fresh Kils. Since its release, the EP has received rave reviews and a debut 1 spot on CIUT radio. A hilarious ode to Middle School rap, the music video single Pop N Chips (featuring Halifax rap phenom Ghettosocks and London, ON emcee Timbuktu) can be seen on MuchMusic, MusiquePlus and YouTube.

More Or Les’ performance career includes such highlights as a 2009 SxSW showcase, 2008 Halifax Pop Explosion, Pop Montréal Festival in ’08 and ’07, ManifesTO Cultural Arts Festival, '09 and '08 Under Pressure Festival, the Luminato Festival, Harbourfront Centre, Wavelength’s 7th Anniversary, Canadian appearances on the Vans Warped Tour, opening for Eyedea & Abilities, a tour of Eastern Canada with the Wordburglar, appearances at The Second City, Style In Progress, a trip to each coast with the Perpetual Motion Roadshow, many local clubs around Toronto, Government of Canada Pavilions at the 2003 World Cycling Championships and the Canadian National Exhibition, as well as busking on the streets.

Music releases for More Or Les include his debut and sophomore albums I only stop for the Red Ants and The Truth About Rap respectively, and appearances on the latest release of The Herbaliser. Appearing on their 2008 album "Same As It Never Was", More or Les connected with the group over three shows (Toronto, Ottawa & Montreal) on their 2005 Canadian tour, a week-long gig in London, UK in November 05 and European & Canadian tours in 2006 and 2008.

With "crates steeped deep in hip hop history," Les is a guest DJ at Toronto's monthly classic Hip Hop celebration, Never Forgive Action and co-host of the media-attention-grabbing Hip Hop Karaoke. He was also the resident DJ at Toronto's most influential underground hip hop showcase, In Divine Style, which ran weekly from 2001-2006.

Although the Truth About Rap is outstanding, "The Wrong Way" has to be my favorite track right now. It's one of those you have to go out and play for everyone.
