Daiyan

Born in Manhattan, raised in Queens, Daiyan was exposed to hip-hop early as five years old where he first saw Eminem’s “The Real Slim Shady” on MTV, he immediately had the white tee and blue jeans at the 2 bedroom apartment in Astoria

Usually it was Michael Jackson vinyls & cd’s playing in the house, timeless classics, Bollywood romanticism, Bengali music and then he ventured on his own. Music was always his solace, never expressed but the expression was loud. Though a late bloomer, his mission still holds strong as he intends to lead others to be comfortable in their own skin, break out of their shells, strive for their purpose and really live out their wildest dreams
