With a name like Prema LaNay (pronounced Pree-mah Lah-nay) there’s not much you can grow up and be, other than a star. Really, can you imagine writing that on a job application or signing it on doctor’s prescription?
“As a kid, I didn’t hate my name, but it was odd introducing myself to people,” admits the Atlanta-based performer whose first name means “the loved” in Sanskrit (Indian) and middle means “awakening” in Hawaiian. “It wasn’t until I got older that I understood the meaning.”
Now that her identity is secure, the eccentric singer/songwriter is indeed looking to live up to her name and give music a much-needed awakening with her Interscope records debut The PREfix.
Described by Interscope co-founder Jimmy Iovine as “a marvelous writer,” Prema got her start penning personal short stories, that eventually turned into melodies and songs. Her talents didn’t go unnoticed for long as she began writing for small independent artist. Soon after, with some encouragement from fellow studio rats, Prema stopped letting people demo her words, and started singing them herself.
“The most difficult part of that transition was putting myself up front,” reveals the soft-spoken Prema who refers to herself as a “musical actress.” “I always wrote songs in third person for other people. When I had to focus on me, I had to find my signature amongst various styles.”
Whatever struggles she had, none of them were apparent on her first project, The Pre-Album. Powered by what she calls “theatrical” R&B, the CD caught like wildfire through industry circles, with her music reaching as far as London, Japan, the Dominican Republic and Canada. Prema’s international buzz lead to her signing with Interscope in April 2007.
Already being described as a cure to what’s become a stagnant music industry, The PREFix showcases Prema’s knack for writing Oscar-worth visuals. Songs like the mind-stretching “He Beats Me” depicts a victimizing emotion while tracks like “Loving a Junkie” and “He Got Blown Away” highlight her passionate creativity.
“I want my music to make you feel like you’ve been taken to another world,” explains Prema about her penchant for storytelling. “I want it to feel like I’m giving the listener a fix. Some people have drugs for that, I want them view my music the same way.”
On second thought, Prema Lanay probably could make it as a doctor.

[Jamie Foxx]
She take my money when I'm in need
Yeah she's a trifling friend indeed
Oh she's a gold digger way over town
That digs on me
[Chorus:]
(She gives me money)
Now I ain't sayin' she a gold digger (when I'm in need)
But she ain't messin' with no broke
(She gives me money)
Now I ain't sayin' she a gold digger (when I'm in need)
But she ain't messin' with no broke
Get down girl go head get down (I gotta leave)
Get down girl go head get down (I gotta leave)
Get down girl go head get down (I gotta leave)
Get down girl gone head
[Verse 1:]
Cutie the bomb
Met her at a beauty salon
With a baby Louis Vuitton
Under her underarm
She said I can tell you rock
I can tell by your charm
Far as girls you got a flock
I can tell by your charm and your arm
But I'm looking for the one
Have you seen her?
My psychic told me she'll have an a** like Serena
Trina, Jennifer Lopez, four kids
And I gotta take all they bad a** to show-biz
OK get your kids but then they got their friends
I pulled up in the Benz, they all got up in
We all went to din and then I had to pay
If you f**** with this girl then you better be paid
You know why?
It take too much to touch her
From what I heard she got a baby by Busta
My best friend says she use to f*** with Usher
I don't care what none of y'all say I still love her
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
18 years, 18 years
She got one of your kids, got you for 18 years
I know somebody paying child support for one of his kids
His baby mamma car and crib is bigger than his
You will see him on TV any given Sunday
Win the Superbowl and drive off in a Hyundai
She was supposed to buy your shorty TYCO with your money
She went to the doctor got lipo with your money
She walking around looking like Michael with your money
Should've got that insured got GEICO for your money, money, money
If you ain't no punk holla we want prenup
WE WANT PRENUP! Yeah
It's something that you need to have
'Cause when she leave yo a** she gon' leave with half
18 years, 18 years
And on her 18th birthday he found out it wasn't his
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
Now I ain't saying you're a gold digger you got needs
You don't want your dude to smoke but he can't buy w***
You go out to eat, he can't pay y'all can't leave
There's dishes in the back, he gotta roll up his sleeves
But why y'all washing watch him
He gone make it into a Benz out of that Datsun
He got that ambition, baby, look in his eyes
This week he mopping floors, next week it's the fries
So, stick by his side
I know this dude's balling n yeah that's nice
And they gone keep calling and trying
But you stay right girl
And when you get on he leave your a** for a white girl
Get down girl go head get down
Get down girl go head get down
Get down girl go head get down
Get down girl go head
(lemme hear that back)

For all the Ladies and Gentlemen who had the pleasure of going clubbing in the 90's and 00's. Dancing to hits like this, we were truly blessed 🙏
@paulomunozartavia2282
I wasn’t that lucky. I was born the same year this song came out, so if I were to go to a club now, I would only get to listen to trash songs. This type of music is better to me tbh
