  • Bio

    Mahasin, which means 'How Beautiful' in Arabic, is a singer, songwriter, and performer born and raised in the Harlem section of New York, USA. She started her musical journey as a vocalist in her middle school chorus and later as a student of the trombone at the prestigious Juilliard School. While attending CUNY Baruch College, Mahasin co-founded the independent label Shabar Music Entertainment with record producer Fernando "Royal" Singleton and began writing and producing her own music. The results of which were several dynamic recordings including the “Wind It Up!” and "Party Life" albums. Mahasin has taken her talent to many stages including but certainly not limited to The Knitting Factory, Blue Note and Brooklyn Academy of Music B.A.M. Café Live. In addition to her solo projects, she has performed background for the likes of Meli’sa Morgan and collaborated with countless Independent artists and musicians. Most recently, she lent her voice to the “Be a Humanitarian” project in support of raising money and awareness in the wake of the tragic Haitian Earthquake. Mahasin is a sassy singer and songwriter bringing together a perfect blend of Pop, R&B and Soul. Being a child of the 80’s Mahasin draws her influences from Pop icons such as Michael Jackson, Madonna and Prince and understands how their music was able to bring people together. She aims to make people forget about what music genre they're listening to and inspire them to feel the music, sing, or just dance! Do you want Mahasin to perform at your event?

"Wind It Up!" Downloads Available Now!
..

I f you’ve never heard of Mahasin then consider yourself to be amongst the lucky few to discover her first! This sassy singer is the perfect blend of Pop and R&B with enough soul left over to quiet the non-believers. With life lessons learned and much deserved confidence under her belt, her new album “Wind It Up!“ is long over due. .. ..

B orn and raised in Harlem, USA, Mahasin remains a student of the world. Traveling to China while still in high school, she found herself to be an ambassador for those in the homogenous society who had never seen or interacted with an African American. This eye opening experience gave Mahasin the courage to follow her dreams. After coming back to the states and being overheard by a fellow classmate while singing in the staircase, she was dared to join a talent contest. “I always knew I could sing but I was too petrified to sing in front of anyone, including and especially family. I did the contest and haven’t shut up since!” The rest is history. ..... ..

Mahasin has performed all over New York City doing showcases and open mics all in preparation for becoming the artist she is today. Now with one album already under her belt, "Hot Pink!", Mahasin’s "Wind It Up!" personifies the meaning of “Sistas are doin it for themselves” The album encompasses the many stages of relationships, but from the female point of view. “This album is not a love album but it is an album about love. People fall in and out of love all the time and I wrote these songs to capture the experience of how we will forever be going around in circles.” Mahasin’s music has been influenced by several contemporary artists including R. Kelly and Alicia Keys. These influences have helped to give birth to songs such as the drawer dropping song “In the Dark” and “Home” which outlines what it is her lover needs to come back to. ..... ..

So yes, while the album exudes with confidence and sensual independence, there is still something Mahasin wants the fellas to keep in mind, “although you might hear women saying ‘we don’t need men‘, we damn sure want them so come on, let’s make it happen!” So stay tuned because before you know it, Mahasin will be taking over a city near you…!
