🌍 Tamir – “SLM Freestyle” (Official Music Video)

From Scarborough to the World — A Love Letter to the 6ix’s East End Culture

When Tamir says “Scarborough to the World,” he means it. The “SLM Freestyle” (inspired by “Somebody Loves Me” by Drake & PARTYNEXTDOOR) is more than just a music drop — it’s a cinematic tribute to Scarborough’s identity, resilience, and artistic heartbeat.

Directed by @paul.ab.ohonsi and @cleartamir, the video feels like a film: grounded in community, layered with nostalgia, and glowing with authenticity. The storytelling is immersive — balancing polished cinematography with raw neighborhood soul. Every shot feels intentional, every cameo a piece of Scarborough history.

From Maestro Fresh Wes to @monasroti, the cameos celebrate not just music, but legacy. It’s Scarborough’s creative ecosystem in full motion — from local restaurants and grassroots foundations to athletes, filmmakers, and poets. The credits alone read like a map of the city’s movers and shakers.

The production is elite — tight editing by @treveh, @cleartamir, and @castelloelloello, vivid color grading, and creative direction from @blckgrlnxtdr and @nillynillynillynilly. Even behind the scenes, the energy is community-driven: @13sunsvegan, @scarboroughspots, @scarboroughshootingstars, and countless others came together to make this not just a video — but a movement.

💬 “This one’s for the east — for everyone who ever put Scarborough on their back and kept going.”

Musically, Tamir delivers his smoothest performance yet — emotional, reflective, and grounded in love for the people and places that shaped him. “SLM Freestyle” isn’t about flash; it’s about roots. It’s about reminding the world that greatness grows from local soil.
