Korby speaks with producer, songwriter and artist Lamont Coleman about his evolution from being an in-demand beatmaker and producer in the NYC hip hop scene to writing with country artists on music row.
Lamont was an instrumental collaborator on the hit “Sweetest Girl Dollar Bill” feat Wyclef Jean, Akon, Lil Wayne, but traded the hip hop lifestyle to be “more intentional” with his musical gifts. Lamont’s self-described "non-religious" religious upbringing pokes up regularly in a conversation the veers often into basic questions about art’s role in shaping individual development and cultural harmony.
Finally, Korby and Lamont play the Morse Code Theme Song "Got to be More", written by Korby Lenker and Megan McCormick.
