Laman is a music producer, songwriter, composer and mix engineer with a passion to create global music. In the beginning Laman started singing background harmonies with friends in his local neighborhood at 15 years old, by the time he was 20 years old he was playing guitar and singing with a reggae band in Brooklyn, NY.

Throughout his years of working with different groups singing and playing guitar he put on shows in California with vocalist “Phillis Roundtree” to support Disabled Veterans and at local clubs in the Los Angeles area where he met and collaborated with a vocalist name “Rikki Ribbers”.

As a result of his focus and drive Laman graduated from Full Sail University’s Bachelors Degree Program in Music Production, while attending Full Sail he produced music for several artists and cable TV Shows. His music is a mix of Hip Hop, R&B, Jazz, Funk and Soul sometimes combining them with a touch of Latin for flavor. Some of the artists he’s worked with are “TaNeal”, “Nicole Rue”, and Bass player “Halllman Bates”.

In his effort to pursue his desire to produce music to encourage the world, Laman founded Tribal Affair Music Group where he produces tracks and works with local artists in the New York area. Laman is dedicated to using his knowledge & expertise to improve an endangered music industry, by working with young artists and instilling in them the importance of being skilled at their craft but also capable of giving and caring about the world we live in.

I have had my Music placed in a Independent Movie released in September 2010 and on several Cable TV Shows (BEVERLY HILLS FABULOUS, JOAN AND MELISSA: JOAN KNOWS BEST?, Tosh O).
