Sabi(IX)

Sabi was born and raised in Inglewood, California. She has loved the arts since the age of 4, and has been involved in one art form or another from dance, to theatre, to singing her whole life. Sabi comes from a biracial background, with an El Salvadorian mother and African American father, so she speaks Spanish and English. Is a communications major at California State University Long Beach. Landed three commercials via ABC Family, Universal Studios, and Pepsi in 2007. Her film debut struck was in an independent film executive produced by actor Shia LaBeouf, which premiered at the 2008 LA Film Festivals. She was also featured on the web series from the producers of Moesha and the Proud Family entitled "The Lyfe of Kevyn." In the summer of 2009, Sabi joined the Los Angeles based urban/pop group The Bangz, featuring another performer named Ella Ann, that got signed to the indie recording label VNR, Asylum Records and Warner Bros. Records. Not much after, Ella was seriously injured and unable to continue, leaving Sabi to go on alone. However, executives at Warner Bros. loved Sabi's talent and energy and wanted to continue the label's relationship with her as a solo artist. She has been attracting buzz from her collaborations on Britney Spears' song "(Drop Dead) Beautiful" from her #1 album Femme Fatale, Cobra Starship's song "You Make Me Feel..." from their latest album, Night Shades, and the New Boyz' song "Tough Kids" from the album Too Cool to Care. Meanwhile, she's in the studio with Benny Blanco, Dr. Luke and The Cataracs recording her own album.
