Biography:
|
Rarely is one bred to be a superstar. Los Angeles native, V Sevani, is
one of those rare breeds. From a young age, V was well cultured in the arts.
Growing to be a triple-threat, he began to master dance, music, and theater;
due to strong influences from his mother, a classically trained pianist, and
his father, a collegiate degree holding dancer. His natural talent and gifts
shined early, being able to capture and entertain watchers from his first
dance moves- to his first theater showcasing in ³A Christmas Carol.²
Around V¹s Eighth birthday his parents opened respected dance studio,
Synthesis in North Hollywood. This immediate outlet to perform would become
the building blocks to V¹s explosive dancing capabilities, and where he
would hone is skills to one day entertain and sing for the world. His talent
did not go un-noticed.
At the age of 13, Dalvin Degrate former Jodeci member produced and wrote V¹s
first song. It was from that moment on that V knew his calling was to
entertain.
Over the next year V continued to build attraction for his
undeniable talents, gaining the attention of world-renowned manager, Chris
Stokes. Along with Stokes, V set out to develop the next generation RnB-Pop
group, which resulted in the creation of male pop- sensations NLT (Not Like
Them).
For the next four years V and NLT worked on and off creating a
following for their signing push. In that four years V took a year and half
off to focus on school and graduate. V immediately returned to the group,
and things fell right back on track with NLT signing to Geffen Interscope.
After finding their sound, the group released their first single, ³That
Girl². The video release later that year increased the hype around the band
helping them land a promo tour with the PussyCat Dolls.
The tour pushed NLT directly into the music world¹s spotlight. Which
led to them working with world famous producer Timbaland on their second
single, ³She Said, I Said.² The song took over the radio charts in Los
Angeles launching to number for over 6 weeks, and to #37 on the billboard
charts. After releasing their third single, ³Karma², produced by Grammy
award winner Ryan Tedder, NLT headlined their first tour, the Bandomonium
Tour. NLT gained a lot of success and exposure during their tenure but
decided to part ways with their manager Chris Stokes after the Bandomonium
Tour, which led to their breakup in early April.
V took this time off to further perfect his skills, to become the
next superstar pop-entertainer. Common associates led to V meeting LA based
producer and CEO, Greg Whitman of independent label High Valley Music. The
two were soon in the studio composing what will be V¹s debut solo album,
³Steps². This instant chemistry also led to V signing to High Valley
Music. While finishing up his album, ³Steps², V will also be filming hisfirst featured film, ³Rock, Paper, Scissors². Much is to be expected in the near future from V, the next generation entertainer.
