NEW YORK, NY (May 22, 2017) —

London based singer/songwriter and producer Jahna Sebastian releases a snippet of her upcoming new single ‘When Love Shows Light’. It is the third single off her forthcoming full length album, she previously released the critically acclaimed singles ‘Aftermath’ and Fearless. ‘When Love Shows Light’ was written, recorded, produced, arranged and mixed by Ms. Sebastian at her studio Multivizion Music. The artwork for the cover of ‘When Love Shows Light’ was photographed by Maurice Sparrow at Castle Studios and the elegant black and gold sequined dress and lovely headpiece worn by Ms. Sebastian was provided by HellavaGIRL. Her glam squad for the shoot included hair stylist Konrad Bula and makeup artist Anika Patel.

When asked to discuss the motivation and inspiration for ‘When Love Shows Light’ Ms. Sebastian stated, “This song is about the need for love, self love, love of others. There is a widespread notion ‘everything is possible’ and ‘opportunities are limitless’. While a great soothing mechanism to temporary create false sense of happiness, it doesn’t last for long and go deep enough. Books we read, music we listen to, conversations we have, experiences we have shape our lives. Our brain remembers everything. We can change how we look at things, but some things we can’t change. There is a doorway to compassion in accepting that. There is love in understanding that. But reality is that to think that there are absolutely no limitations is like putting one person at the centre of the universe while disregarding needs, interests and wishes of everyone else and the world around. Because to acknowledge that you may not always choose everything in the candy shop, life is not a toy store and that it’s best to make the best out of limitations, to swallow pride and work with what you have rather than assume that you can have everything you want is a lot harder than assume that everybody can be a winner all the time and nothing is impossible. It’s a lot harder to actually learn to work with yourself and the energies around you than create fake happiness syndrome and fake confidence. A chill pill to soothe egoistic needs is easier to swallow than pride to have understanding love for yourself and others that life is multidimensional with wins and failures, choices we have to make within the confinement of the environment, but not against time and other people’s path in mind as well as the course of history of humanity as a whole.”

Ms. Sebastian is currently working with talented Russian artist Ainur Timergaliev, whom she is working on a series of art projects including a special art exhibition. She is also collaborating with Serena Hussain on series of conversations for LV MAG. Conversations to raise questions on many issues in society, music industry and much more which will be released as a series of talks.

Behind the Scenes: Deja Destinee’s Creative Process and Musical Inspiration

Published

on

The music industry is an ever-evolving landscape where artists must find their unique voice to stand out. In a detailed conversation, the grind of music and creativity were dissected with candor and passion by Shah Cypha and the multi-talented artist, Deja Destinée. They unpack the essence of Deja’s brand, her perspective on the music industry, and her multifaceted ventures beyond music.

The Genesis of a Brand: A Personal Story Through Music

The brand an artist creates is often a tapestry woven from their personal stories. For Deja Destinée, her name carries a legacy and an inspiration that fuels her artistic presence. “Deja Destiny is destiny… My first name was by my sister… Named after Tyra Banks’ character in Higher Learning… Destiny was named by my grandmother before I was born,” she recounts. This personal lineage adds depth to her music and offers her audience a piece of her narrative, creating a genuine connection that transcends the rhythms and lyrics.

In the music industry, the background behind a name often holds a significant weight, and Deja’s is intertwined deeply with her familial ties. Her music doesn’t just offer sound; it provides listeners with resonance, a shared experience that taps into the emotional fabric of the listener. This personal touch has become a beacon for her brand and her music, positioning her as an artist with a story to tell, a history to honor, and a future to shape.

Commanding the Stage: Performance as a Reflection of the Artist

A major theme from the discussion centered around Deja’s approach to performance. Stating that music comes as “first nature,” it’s evident that her on-stage persona is where she truly shines. Describing her performances, Deja says, “I give a lot of cocky energy. When I get on the stage, I usually bring my dancers, I have, you know, the flashy custom outfits… it makes them feel good, and for it to make them feel like they really that b\*\*\*h.”

This attitude exemplifies the confidence and showmanship that Deja brings to her craft, setting her apart in a crowded industry. The energy of a live performance, where the artist and audience feed off each other’s enthusiasm, is particularly crucial for Deja. Each show becomes an intimate conversation between them, a shared moment of empowerment and celebration of talent. It’s in these details that Deja’s commitment to her artistry, and her desire to elevate the music experience, shines brightest.

A Nexus of Creativity: Beyond Music

During the conversation, it became apparent that Deja is not content with being pigeonholed as just a musician. With interests in acting and entrepreneurship, such as her unique skincare line *Co-Skin*, she relays, “I do hair, I do makeup, I have my own like, skincare line doing shea butter… It’s so many things that I feel like I can tap into.”

Her tenacity to take on multiple creative endeavors showcases not only her talent but her understanding of the importance of diversification in a modern artist’s career. Deja leverages her platform in music to venture into other areas of interest, broadening her reach and solidifying her presence both in and out of the music world. This blend of artistry and enterprise spotlights a new generation of artists who are as business-minded as they are creative, indicative of the changing tides within the industry.

The Future Sounds of Success: Deja’s Continual Growth

As the conversation turned towards future prospects, Deja Destinée laid out her vision of evolving within the industry and her plans to be a game-changer. With new music on the horizon, including the engagingly titled single “ATE”, and a role in the upcoming film premiere set for June 6th at Newark Cinema, Deja’s grind is relentless.

Echoing her earlier sentiments on the significance of grinding, she reiterates, “To work and put in the work… when you don’t want to do it, put in the work then, too, because in the end, it’s gonna pay off.” It’s with this unwavering dedication and drive that Deja Destinée forges ahead, paving her path with an unshakeable belief in her art and her ability to influence the industry.

Deja’s narrative is one that is building upon the foundations of authenticity, perseverance, and an uncompromising vision for what she wants to achieve. With a solid grounding in the values instilled in her name and approach to music, the future beckons with infinite possibilities, each one an opportunity to further the imprint of Deja Destinée on the world.
