NEW YORKNov. 13, 2020PRLog — Singer, songwriter, producer, engineer, model and visionary Jahna Sebastian partnered with rap battle PRO BATTLE with her London based studio and record label Multivizion Music. As Jahna is a producer, in Russia she has been known for many years as one of the pioneers in Russian grime scene and Russian hip-hop movement in the UK which started from her studio in 2007. As a female producer,  she worked with many male rappers and  she was literally the only female in the room. Ms. Sebastian earned respect and power in the Russian industry and is well regarded there. She was the first and the only female hip hop producer in the Russian scene, when she started, however this was a major power move.

Ms. Sebastian stated, “Going behind the mixing desk and creating a movement was something I always wanted, because I am a trendsetter, a leader, not a follower. Since 2007 I have been not only producing, but guiding, mentoring and teaching rappers to flow, become better lyricists, many of them prefer to work with me, as I am not shy to give honest constructive criticism, while perfecting each take. I give professional advice to artists on how to better their performance. It’s more than a studio, it’s like a school where talents are raised in real time, when I am behind the mixing desk. On top of that I have always been a trusted support when artists had mental health issues and needed advice in life, I have been helping them to overcome challenges and learn to be stronger.”

Ms. Sebastian has been recording songs by various rappers for this battle since 2009. One of those rappers is now one of the top rappers in Russia – Oxxxymiron, who’s debut album she engineered and recorded at her studio Multivizion Music.  Ms. Sebastian was also featured on his track ‘Russky Cockney‘ which was groundbreaking and one of the key tracks that launched grime music – UK’s own version of MCing – in Russia. Oxxxymiron’s participation in the battle was the main discovery to this date and her work with him on the tracks was a stepping stone in popularising battle rap in general. It was an example of someone becoming truly successful through the art of word, lyrical content and showing real talent, without any major labels involved, in the true spirit of hip hop. From that battle Oxxxymiron went on to become a popular and top tier artist.  Performing and selling out solo stadium tours on the biggest platforms.  Ms. Sebastian assisted Oxxxymiron and other rappers participate in this battle by recording hip-hop and grime classics.
