One Two Three

Born in China and immigrated to the US at 11, Bohan is an anomaly in both the American and Chinese music scenes. Challenging the norms of the mainstream music scene, Bohan includes both Mandarin and English lyrics in his songs as a reflection of his dual identity and aim to bridge the cultural gap between the two places he calls home.

I’ve spent the last year and a half based in China, playing shows in mainland as well as Hong Kong, while making regular trips back to New York including a performance with Red Bull for their New York City Culture Clash in June 2024. Since 2024 I’ve been a global brand ambassador for Marshall Speakers, and now I’m back in New York with a stronger focus on the Western market.

I grew up listening to some of the best storytellers, Tupac, Lauryn Hill, Eminem. Their music was a reflection of their own unique life experiences, but often also a commentary on the world around them. Naturally, I found myself becoming a storyteller as I started to mature as a writer. I realize that our stories are the most powerful tools we have to try to break down barriers and truly connect with each other. And if we don’t tell our stories, no one else will. 

As an Asian American, when I'm asked where I'm from, my reply of "New York" seems never to be satisfactory. "Where are you REALLY from?" they'll usually ask again. This perception that we don't belong because of the way we look, despite Asian Americans having literally built the railroads that became the backbone of this country, this concept of Asian people as perpetual foreigners, is what I'm challenging with this song. This is the lead single of a series of monthly singles leading up to a larger project to come in the summer.

做音乐这么多年，其实我已经很清楚自己不是个商人，要不然在17年的新说唱就会有我的身影了。
其实我从小就喜欢听故事，姥爷爱读书，有时候会读给我听；妈妈也说她年轻时喜欢看小说，随着书里面的故事会幻想着哪天要去个大城市…
也许“讲故事”这个事儿早已印在我的基因里了，所以我的音乐也经常描述着自己和身边人的故事。就像我刚到美国的时候，从歌里听到了其他人的经历得到了共鸣，才发现也许自己并没有那么孤单。就算我们来自不同的环境，却可以感受到同样的爱与悲伤、欢乐…
太多神奇的事情我无法表述清楚，但这所有的一切都得感谢我妈妈的付出。
总而言之，我不是个商人，或许我也不是一个牛逼的说唱歌手，但我会尽量保持着我的真诚，保持我的爱，成为一个能够让你骄傲的人。

你的驕傲 Make You Proud

华裔嘻哈歌手 Bohan Phoenix 于7月22日迎来音乐路上的第二张专辑「Cities are for Fools」。 
他在创作的时候想到，很多人都怀着梦想来到大城市，但同时亦要承受野心带来的后果。 在寻找方向的路上，遇上不少跌跌撞撞，有些人最终找到，有些或许还没有。 这让人不禁开始想象可能走向简单的生活会过得更好。 纵然如此，最后大家都没有离开，也许出走了一阵子，但总会回到城市里。 因为我们相信只要有足够的坚持和幸运，一定能够实现梦想。 在这个过程中，我们得到了什么又失去了什么，大概只有仍然在城市中带着一股傻劲奋斗的你和我才知道。 
高中时候的Bohan为福音音乐合唱团表演，当时他跟着现场乐队伴奏去说唱，那是他第一次的公开表演，亦令他爱上现场表演的感觉。 因此这次的专辑带有更重的现场乐队风格，就像Bohan重回到刚刚开始表演音乐的那段日子。 
高中过后多年，在2015年他跟好友兼音乐制作人Jachary把现场乐队的声音带到迷你专辑《lovelove》当中，而2022年的《Cities are for Fools》将会是他最新的现场音乐风格的展示，追求让乐迷一同沉浸于现场乐队的音乐。 
专辑总共有10首歌曲，包括今年早前推出的三首单曲《New York Made Me》、《Take Off， Touch Down》及《Possible》，而新曲中则以《 Luxury》为主打歌曲。
