Up and Coming: Karina Pasian



We first came accross this 15 year old phenom on a mixtape with a song called "16 at War." We were feeling it and did some research on her, you saw her here first!!


The New York Daily News reports Def Jam Recordings president Jay-Z, Bad Boy CEO Sean Combs and Interscope chairman Jimmy Iovine all battled to sign 14-year-old R&B singer Karina Pasian. The three hip hop titans had a 10-day high-stakes bidding war to sign the teen described as a cross between Alicia Keyes and Whitney Houston - before Jay-Z dramatically trumped his competitors with a "seven-figure deal." A Def Jam rep confirmed Monday that the label just signed Pasian, but wouldn't get into specifics. "--Reports flood the internet informing on Karina's Signing, and the bidding war to adquire her talent
