organizing the garden today

organizing the garden today, assembling a table, the weather was great though.

Pray for my Grandmother

My Grandmother in Russia was diagnosed with cancer and every day counts, although she has always been a very independent person, I guess it's being from the generation that has gone through World War II when she spent her childhood in extreme conditions and then living in Soviet Union that she has her principles to try and sustain on her own. There is only certain type of treatment and operation that can help her but it costs A LOT of money and because of the way health care in Russia is as everything else it's a matter of money and only money to make the jump through the long queue possible. It's crazy that she doesn't want to take money from me saying that she doesn't want it to be in her great granddaughter Nicole's (my daughter) detriment knowing that I am a single mother getting through. Even though I am trying to organize it for her it's surprising how in one part of the world a person in need of saving their life refuses to take from others when elsewhere someone else can take everything away even from others just to feed their ego. She was also looking after her husband who was a lieutenant colonel who was paralyzed for a few years after a stroke until he passed. Well, miracles happen when there is faith and when there is no cash to make make a change the only thing left is pray to God for forgiveness and strength to go through what is ordained.

Jahna Sebastian INTERVIEW ON INVINCIBLE RADIO April 2010 + live perfomance

Speaking about life, coming to London, music, gaining freedom and the story behind songs "Emancipation" and "Nothing Like My Freedom" + a preview of a new song "Famous" with Congo Natty aka Rebel MC +

Jahna Sebastian and Tribe in the studio, November 2009 Multivizion Music

In my studio on the day Tribe recorded "London Chronicles 2" the track that touches true stories about how Den Bro, Chiff and Mark came to London. Me - behind the desk as always.

Tribe - mixtape "London Chronicles" + New track from Insomnia Music Productions/Multivizion Music

Russian hip hop group "Tribe" (Den Bro, Mark, Chiff) will release their mixtape next week, it's been very blessed to record them in my studio Multivizion Music, although I had to mix the vocals for the last 7 seven tracks on a very tight schedule when I just got two other jobs (started recently working with British DJ&MC Academy as a producer/engineer and working on film/commercial productions) and three other projects with various artists, it's now finished and just needs the graphic design to be submited.

There was very little going when I came to London within young Russian community apart from a few trance parties, but nothing to do with hip hop, dubstep, drum n bass etc. In the space of three years from the time when Den Bro started recording in my studio for the first time when people were just gathering in Green Park and getting some ideas together, freestyling and it wasn't clear where it was going, the movement has progressed a lot. We all linked each other from all parts of London and started working together. We all learned a lot, Den Bro, Mark, Chiff, No Limit, I1, Oxxxymiron and everyone else grew on every level. Now there is a strong voice coming from London Russian hip hop scene and connection between the movement and Russian speaking countries.

Also Sharon Cherry Ballard's songs produced by Gareth Nathan and mixed by me "Music Is My Remedy" and "Three Words I Can't Say" will be released through Multivizion Music/Insomnia Music Productions in May 2010.

In the mean time I'm working on a few dubstep remixes at the moment.

Don't qoute me if I didn't say it

If it's not an official interview or blog post on one of my web-sites, don't qoute me. All blogs claiming "she said ... ", "she addresses ..." "she claimes ... " are wrong because I have never spoken to any media outlet regarding the situation with my daughter whether it's in Russia or anywhere else in the world. The ones speculating on this are the blogs. Get your facts right! Get a life!

Being Humble - Taking off Rose Colored Glasses

It's easy to say "stay humble", but it's so hard to be REAL humble. I just spoke yesterday with one of my friends, who came from Russia, that it's amazing how the class mentality is much bigger in the West, although they are the ones shouting louder than anyone about "equality", in reality the myth of class theory by Karl Marx that has been excepted by everyone without even questioning it is still alive. On another hand people are stuck in classifying and grouping people depending on "what you own", "your income", "where you live", "how you dress", "what car you driving", "what kind of spirits you drinking" or "oh no, you only use public transport?" which is not much different from the way people used to percieve each other, in for example, Europe of Middle Ages or Ancient Rome. The difference is that today the boundaries between the "classes" are a bit more liquid although the top remains more or less the same way almost unachievable. The love of numbers - is just a game of numbers, nothing more, but people measure each other in amount of all these degrees, points, awards, amount of money in the bank. All this is so questionable depending on time and can vary within a single life time so often, that in no way it can measure the qualities of a human personality. But today people don't care, everyone wants to be famous and does any weird stuff to get into the magazines, and the comments become more frequent: who care he/she is making money, no matter how! Does it make him/her a better person? No. So it could be a complete idiot, but as long as that person is making money and holds the status - thumbs up. Well, people can get famous for anything from shoes to sex tapes today and then they think they are better than eveyone else.

On another note once when someone is in a position where everyone praises you and is literally licking the floor you stepped on to, nobody ever affords to push you in the shop or show at any point in time that you are unimportant, it's hard to stay grounded and keep the true picture of yourself, isn't it? Of course, majority will always hail if the influential one/expert told them that is they way. Just because there is a mass hysteria about some people, they easily forget that everything from their image to the way they are being perceived is no more than a product of the industry. Some might have known it from the beginning, but as the time went buy that vanished. If you only hear "oh, you're so great!" can you be your own judge and take of the rose colored glasses? Because even when doing great things we're not supposed to also praise ourselves for it, it should be accepted as part of the path, otherwise it's easy to get into self-delusion. We can't build our pride on certain things that have been given to us by God - like beauty, talents and luck or especially use them to bring other people down. Who said that life is a competition and the main goal is to divide and rule? Every empire had it's cycle: the rise - the growth and golden age - the collapse. There is nothing new under the sun as we know, the history repeats itself. To be free is to get rid of that kind of state of mind. We are all spiritual beings first of all, not what we think is our self-identification by proffession and social status is. To be continued ...
