Heems Booking Agency Profile
Himanshu "Heems" Suri reveals LAFANDAR, a surprise new initiative. Heems returned to the music scene late last year with his On The Radar freestyle, which served as a prelude to his upcoming record LAFANDAR, which will be released under his own Veena Sounds label in collaboration with Nas's Mass Appeal India. This came after a six-year break from solo releases. The project is a partnership between Heems and Indian-American producer Lapgan, whose history project was the first album to be released on Heems' new Veena label.
Heems manipulates Lapgan's cinematic South Asian samples for the record, bringing back the internal rhyming and hilarious humor that fans associate with his past tapes and collaborations with Das Racist and Swet Shop Boys. The title of LAFANDAR is an old-country derisive term for a vagrant, a wanderer, a loomer, a lurker, an urban swindler, and particularly in Heems' instance, a flaneur. Heems portrays Queens, fresh York's vast neighborhoods as the natural home of outsider hip-hop, complete with fresh subcultures, references, and dangers around every corner..

Frequently Asked Questions about booking Heems to perform.
Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like Heems in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too. If you are seriously interested in booking Heems or other talent shown on our site, we will research their desire and the specific fee for your live-streaming event or project request.
Heems's current work schedule and location in relation to your event's type, date, budget, and locality will play a primary factor in the acceptance of booking Heems for your party. As long as your funding is commensurate with the price range to book Heems, CTI will propose your event to the official agency representing Heems. After we consult with them, we will provide a personal and accurate quote that includes: final costs, availability, and actual interest in being hired for your specific event or party.
CTI can give you the accurate Heems booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book Heems for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Heems booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will Heems charge for an event. An example fee to book Heems is in the starting range of $40,000-$74,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
CTI negotiates on behalf of professional event planners and talent buyers for paid appearances! We cannot give out direct contact information of the Heems agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Heems manager and agent will only work with us if we present them with funded offers for their client to work your event.
There is low probability to book Heems for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Heems agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Heems, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price. It is also important to consider the travel costs when researching the Heems booking fee, as additional expenses like this, as well as an entourage of staff and equipment, are not necessarily built-in to the booking fee range shown. If your budget does not factor that in, then there is no benefit for them to want to be hired. We do not personally speak for Heems, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
