Layna Lae, born Marlena Trinity Georges, is a rising American urban pop artist, songwriter, and actress hailing from Washington, DC. Her love for music started at an early age, with a diverse range of influences from the late Michael Jackson, Drake, 90's R&B, to Contemporary Rock. Lae attributes her relocation to Washington, DC after her grandmother's death as a significant influence on her music.
Since her 2019 debut with her self-titled single "LAYNA LAE," which she performed at the 8th Annual Passion Over Poverty Teen Talent Showcase hosted by Domestic Violence Wears Many Tags, Layna Lae's lyrics have been inspired by her personal life experiences, including ambiguous topics on lesbian relationships and her obsession with American muscle Hemi engines.
In 2020, Layna Lae took to Instagram (@TheRealLaynaLae) with a new feminized look and the release of her melodic and unapologetic single "As I Am," garnering a lot of attention on social media. Her experimentation phase led to her finding her own sound, and in 2022, Layna Lae released emotionally-drenched heartfelt tribute "1949" after the passing of her grandfather.
One of Layna Lae's latest pop/hip-hop track "Copycat," which she performed at the 5th Annual DC Music Summit, was only released in the radio edit version, demonstrating her desire to spread love, peace, and positivity in her music.
Layna Lae has been nominated for various awards and has performed at notable events such as Bree's Birthday Bash hosted by the late WPGC 95.5 radio host DJ Tony Redz, Vero G's Birthday Bash hosted by Hot 97's DJ Drewski, Foreplay Fridays with Love & Hip-Hop's reality star/rapper Trina, and the Industry Night Live Tour hosted by The Live Squad's Steph Lova & P Stew.
