The journey for Houston, Texas’ Raven Sorvino began with a mic and a dream. Residing in Leimert Park, CA, Raven began pursuing her passion for music with indie label Language Artz Records out of Los Angeles. Scouted by Language Artz CEO, Picaso, Raven released her critically acclaimed “Inspired” EP in 2011, a project influenced entirely by the late songstress Aaliyah. Continuing on her path of success, Sorvino released her debut album “Paper Girl” to rave reviews at the top of 2012. The album, executive produced by Los Angeles production team, The Formula, garnered Sorvino more fans and respect across the board, as well as landing her a nomination for Best Female Artist at the 2012 Underground Music Awards in New York. Raven’s follow up summer release “Playa del Rey” continued her rise in music. With appearances by Casey Veggies, Problem and production from TDE’s Willie B, Ro. Blvd., The Formula & WoodysProduce, “Playa del Rey” further solidified Sorvino as one of the premier MC’s in today’s music industry.
