Emin

Emin - "When every song is a story, the music speaks for itself" Today, the idea of musicians evolving into film stars, fashion designers and entrepreneurs is an accepted journey. Success breeds success and the opportunity to explore new possibilities is probably its greatest gift. What is perhaps less expected is for these journeys to run parallel. Having built a successful fashion empire from one store, Emin has also progressed from ‘open-mic ‘ nights in New Jersey, USA to becoming one of Russia’s foremost pop stars and is now rapidly gaining both critical acclaim and success in the UK. Born in Baku, Azerbaijan, Emin Agalarov's family relocated to Moscow when he was a child. As a teenager, he headed to Europe to pursue his education and to “open my mind to the world.” Later he moved again, to the USA, this time to complete his studies in New Jersey. It was, he says, “a great experience, as it gave me a sense of independence.”
