Sadahzinia


Sadahzinia (born Yolanda Tsiampokalou; Greek: Γιολάντα Τσιαμπόκαλου, in 1977) is a Greek rapper, regarded by many as the first woman that entered the hip-hop scene in Greece. Her name is a made up play on the words: sad + jah+ the flower zinia. Since 1994 she had been working in the studio and live shows in Greece and Europe with the successful hip-hop/low bap group Active Member. In 2002 she officially became member of the group. In 1999 she took her degree of English Literature, Philosophical Faculty Athens. She has played keyboards and percussions for a short while both in shows and in the studio, but in the last years she is more focused on her rap and on writing lyrics. These past years she has worked either in the studio or on the stage with several artists both from abroad and from Greece, such as Waldemar Bastos, Sokratis Malamas, Rodney P, Skitz, Killa Kela, Mixologists, Adam Fuest, Winston Irie, Chris Hall, Oliver Wilson, Dynamo Dresden, Extremists and more… Also, she has often performed in London, Wales and Germany. In 2003 Sadahzinia and B.D.Foxmoor found “8ctagon”, their own label. In addition, she is a writer and translator.
