Despite holding a Diploma degree in Human Kinetics and a Bachelors of Arts degree in philosophy from the University of Lagos and also a Masters in Healthcare Administration from a prestigious university in the United States of America, Larry Foreman made a name for himself in the entertainment industry by beginning as a motivational speaker and eventually polishing his talent by working with Unilag FM, the radio station of his university. Since then, the well-known MC advanced even while still in school, working with prominent media houses in Nigeria including Wazobia TV, Cool FM and Wazobia FM.
One of Larry Foreman's many life mantras has been working his way up as a creative and branding himself as a unique entity, leaning towards qualities like classy, funny, and being an ideal well-dressed personality. In an industry where people only enter the profession because of the iconic recognition and the wealth that follows, Larry Foreman recognizes his unique selling point as being himself. Once more, in his opinion, the success of an MC or even a hypeman is based on the uniqueness of their brand and how it is promoted.Asides his mantra of branding himself as a unique individual, he also believes in regulating the entertainment industry to give direction amongst creatives (MCs, hypemen & hypewomen). He concludes that “There should be checks and balances and systems that help people understand that the industry is not a joke and everything requires a level of technical know how”
Larry relocated abroad in October 2019 and met with better opportunities for his craft, while his first gig happened in November of the same year, he at first struggled to reach the light at the end of his dark tunnel before finally becoming the well-established creative. He has anchored events with different racial audience bringing unique humour, crowd engagement and fun making him a leading global event host.
