5Singer & Songwriter
Thanks to the web we managed to find out that Lauren actually graduated from Emerson University in 2006 with a bachelor’s degree in public relations and communications. She gave an interview, a while back, to the Vydia and she stated “There was a group of kids from Brooklyn I met my first week at Emerson and we hit it off. A few of the guys were rappers, and one of them set up a mini studio in his dorm room” which basically means that her college experience is to thank for her pursuit of music.
Last year Lauren released her first official music video for the song “Go Hard” which we have right here, and believe it or not, it was selected by ESPN as one of their official songs for the 2017 WNBA season. She had the help of her sister Aja who worked beside her as her co-producer. In 2005 Lauren was a finalist on the competition show called “R U That Girl” hosted by TLC’s Chilli and T-Boz. As we manage to find out, from the interview for Vydia, her inspiration comes from her boyfriend Dwayne.
“Dwayne has been such a major driving force in my inspiration. He is my motivator and my sounding board every day. Always giving me notes on the work, always motivating me to outdo my last effort. Honestly, if I impress him with a track then I feel accomplished, it’s true! He is an example of how anything you can imagine or dream up, you can do because he lives that way. So when you see that everyday, it fuels you & lifts you up too. Also, being in love is a very inspiring thing – all of our experiences, from the good to the fun to the s*xy to even the not so good, provide great inspiration to write from.”
