Manage episode 381092362 series 3447781
Imagine being born with a dream of exploring the cosmos, only to be confined to the stifling conventions of your birthplace. This is the story of Sherry M, the Persian Urban Queen, who dared to break free and redefine her destiny. Hailing from Iran, where she once harbored aspirations of becoming an astronaut, Sherry’s journey led her to Austria to be free to do her music and as an artist, which is pushing back the barriers. Her challenges were manifold - the dangers of the undergroun music scene in the Islamic Republic, the struggle to break into Vienna's traditional opera music scene, and the battle against the Islamic Republic, where she was wanted.
As the conversation unravels, we navigate through Sherry’s intriguing transition from opera to rap. A defiance against the system, her musical evolution is a testament to her resilience and creativity. In the face of political and personal obstacles, she managed to create her own music, make her first record with a renowned DJ in Malaysia, and garner over 1 million fans with over 250 million views. Fascinatingly, Sherry also shares her undying love for space travel, her affinity for chicken schnitzel, and her battle with the current situation as a Persian living in Austria.
