Nazia Hassan was born in Karachi, Pakistan and from an early age showed interest in music.[2] Nazia’s professional career started at the age of fifteen when she provided the lead vocals for the song Aap Jaisa Koi from a Bollywood film titled Qurbani (1980), by Indian producer-director Feroz Khan. Nazia was introduced to Feroz by his friend in the United Kingdom The song was a huge success in India and despite Nazia being a Pakistani, she gained overnight fame there.[3]
She then collaborated with Biddu, a UK-based Indian music producer who was also the composer of Aap Jaisa Koi, on numerous other projects. Biddu had previously made several hit-songs for various singers like Tina Charles and Carl Douglas. In 1981, Biddu released Nazia’s first mega-hit, Disco Deewane. The album broke record sales in Pakistan and India and even topped the charts in the West Indies, Latin America and Russia. Her later albums also had vocals of her brother, Zoheb Hassan. These included Star/Boom Boom (1982), Young Tarang (1984), Hotline (1987), and Camera Camera (1992). Nazia and Zoheb appeared with music maestro Sohail Rana’s Pakistani television program for children, “Sung Sung”.

Making The Band Work – Pilot

April 62010

http://www.theabilityproject.com/video

They made the music, now they’ve got to make it work.

Record labels are dead. The music industry is being democratized.but that doesnt make it any easier to break through and be successful. Manus and Pete decide to self-produce their next album and be their own managers, agents, lawyers an independent label. Theyve got a lot to learn about the business side of music though. Watch the web series, see their music videos, buy their album on iTunes, and see them live at concerts around the country. Keep an eye on them because Neighbors might be the next big thing.

Making The Band Work launches this fall from The Ability Project.
